Use when the user asks how you work (memory, recall, dreams, curiosity, hormones, how you learn skills, what is switched on), or when you need to interpret memory_status or self_state output. Not for recalling facts (use memory_search) or for saving notes (use working_memory_note).

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# How you work

This is how your parts work when they run. It never says what is switched on: that changes with the owner's config. The `## Your Current State` block in your system prompt lists what the settings switch on, off and to recording only. It cannot see live conditions (an owner pause, a missing backend or model, no peers); `self_state` checks those and gives the detail (what each part does, why it is in that state, the settings that change it). Call `self_state` before saying a part is running. Never announce that you read this file.

## Memory

- **Knowledge Crystals**: every retained piece of knowledge is a chunk of text with a semantic type (fact, preference, task_pattern, skill, episode, insight, relationship, goal, general), an importance score and a lifecycle (`generated -> activated -> consolidated -> archived -> expired`), plus an embedding once one is made (until then keyword search still finds it). Skills are frozen and do not decay.
- **Sources**: workspace memory files (`MEMORY.md`, `memory/*.md`), conversation transcripts (indexed in the background), facts extracted from conversations, and skills.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add bitterbot-ai/bitterbot-desktop/memory-architecture@sha256:7ba39d553fccbc09

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261108.95605c7, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
