What

POI’s “Files > Memory” pattern is gold. We should enforce continuity through durable files before session compaction, rather than hoping compressed context alone preserves operational truth.

Tasks

  • Define the daily log / curated memory split
  • Define what must flush before compaction or session end
  • Decide which continuity files are operator-facing versus agent-facing
  • Add acceptance checks so compaction cannot silently discard key state
  • Document how this interacts with MEMORY.md, daily notes, and any cron/session summaries

Acceptance Criteria

  • The sidecar docs define a pre-compaction memory flush rule
  • Daily versus curated memory roles are explicit
  • A future implementation path is clear for writing key facts before compaction
  • The continuity design does not depend on one provider keeping long context alive
