/remember - Save Session to Memory

Summarize the current work session and save it to persistent memory for future context.

Instructions

When the user invokes /remember, you should:

1. Check for Activity Log

First, check if there's an activity log from this session:

REPO_ROOT=$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null || echo "$PWD")
ACTIVITY_FILE="$REPO_ROOT/.simba/search/activity.log"
if [ -f "$ACTIVITY_FILE" ]; then
    cat "$ACTIVITY_FILE"
fi

2. Analyze the Session

Review what was accomplished in this conversation:

• •What files were read, created, or modified?
• •What was the main goal or task?
• •What key decisions were made?
• •Were there any important patterns or learnings?

3. Generate Summary

Create a concise summary (2-3 sentences) that captures:

• •What was done (the main accomplishment)
• •Why it matters (the purpose or problem solved)
• •Key details (important files, patterns, or decisions)

4. Extract Metadata

Identify:

• •Files touched: List of file paths worked on
• •Topics: 3-5 keywords for searchability (e.g., "auth, jwt, middleware, security")
• •Tools used: Main tools used (Read, Write, Edit, Bash, etc.)

5. Save to Memory

Use the simba.search CLI to save:

# Initialize if needed
uv run python -m simba.search init

# Save session
uv run python -m simba.search add-session \
    "YOUR_SUMMARY_HERE" \
    '["file1.ts", "file2.ts"]' \
    '["Read", "Edit", "Bash"]' \
    "topic1, topic2, topic3"

6. Optionally Add Knowledge or Facts

If during the session you learned something important about the codebase that should be remembered:

For code area knowledge:

uv run python -m simba.search add-knowledge \
    "src/auth" \
    "Authentication module using JWT tokens with refresh token rotation" \
    "Tokens expire in 15min, refresh tokens in 7 days"

For project facts:

uv run python -m simba.search add-fact \
    "Uses PostgreSQL with Prisma ORM" "architecture"
uv run python -m simba.search add-fact \
    "All API routes require authentication except /health" "convention"

7. Clear Activity Log

After saving, clear the activity log:

REPO_ROOT=$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null || echo "$PWD")
ACTIVITY_FILE="$REPO_ROOT/.simba/search/activity.log"
[ -f "$ACTIVITY_FILE" ] && rm "$ACTIVITY_FILE"

8. Confirm to User

Report what was saved:

Saved to memory:
- Summary: [your summary]
- Topics: [topics]
- Files: [count] files tracked

Memory now contains [X] sessions. Use /memory-stats to see details.

Example Output

Saved to memory:
- Summary: Implemented JWT authentication with refresh token rotation. Added middleware for protected routes and updated user model with token fields.
- Topics: auth, jwt, middleware, tokens, security
- Files: 4 files tracked

Memory now contains 12 sessions.

Additional Commands

If the user wants to add specific knowledge or facts, they can say:

• •"Remember that this project uses X" -> Add as fact
• •"Remember how the auth module works" -> Add as knowledge

Ask clarifying questions if the summary scope is unclear.
