Memories

# Memories

Weavestream can learn from your conversations over time. After each AI chat session, it extracts key facts — called memories — and stores them locally. These memories are then injected into future conversations so the AI can give more personalized, context-aware responses.

# How Memories Work

After you finish a conversation, Weavestream automatically runs a background process to extract any notable facts from the exchange. This happens quietly without interrupting your workflow — you may briefly see a "Saving memories..." indicator in the chat panel.

Memories are selective by design. The extraction process is deliberately conservative:

  • Most conversations produce zero memories — only genuinely useful facts are saved
  • A maximum of 2 memories are saved per conversation
  • If a fact is already stored, it won't be extracted again

When you start a new conversation, up to 30 of your most relevant, highest-confidence memories are included in the AI's context automatically. The AI uses these to personalize its responses without drawing attention to them.

# Memory Categories

Each memory is tagged with one of six categories:

Category Examples
Preferences "User prefers concise bullet-point answers"
People "User works with a team member named Sam"
Projects "User is monitoring a Stripe integration project"
Decisions "User decided to use Delete on Sync for alert endpoints"
Context "User's primary use case is IT monitoring"
Facts "User has 12 API sources configured"

# Viewing & Managing Memories

Open Settings (Cmd+Comma) and go to the Memory tab. Here you'll see:

  • The total count of stored memories
  • A searchable, filterable list of all memories
  • Each memory's text, source conversation, date, and confidence level

# Confidence Levels

Each memory includes a confidence score from the AI when it was extracted:

  • Green (80%+) — High confidence fact
  • Amber (50–79%) — Moderate confidence
  • Gray (below 50%) — Low confidence; included in context but used cautiously

# Filtering and Searching

Use the search bar to find specific memories by keyword. Use the Category picker to filter by type (Preferences, People, Projects, etc.).

# Deleting a Memory

Hover over any memory row and click the trash icon that appears. You'll be asked to confirm before it's deleted.

# Clearing All Memories

Click Clear All at the top of the Memory settings pane to delete everything. This cannot be undone.

# Exporting Memories

Click Export JSON to save all your memories to a .json file. This is useful for backing up or inspecting your stored memories.

# Privacy

All memories are stored locally on your Mac. They are never sent to AI providers on their own — only included as part of the system prompt context when you start a conversation. If you're using iCloud Sync, memories are included in what syncs across your devices.
