Memory

Memory files persist facts and preferences across sessions.

Project memoryMEMORY.md in the project root (Koda also reads CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md for compatibility). Injected into every system prompt for that project.

Global memory~/.config/koda/memory.md. Injected into every system prompt across all projects.

/memory        ← show the paths to both memory files
/memory save   ← ask the model to summarise and append to MEMORY.md

MemoryWrite tool

The MemoryWrite tool lets the model append facts to memory directly during a conversation:

> Remember that we use tabs not spaces in this project

Koda will call MemoryWrite automatically when you ask it to remember.
