- Treat
tqmemoryas always-available project memory for this repository. - Before editing an existing area, search project memory first.
- Prefer compact retrieval first and use deeper hydration only when needed.
- After important decisions, debugging outcomes, or handoffs, save one concise note.
- After README, config, workflow, setup, or architecture changes, refresh indexed docs.
- When old knowledge becomes stale, write the new note first and then deprecate the old note.
- Promote to global memory only if the knowledge is reusable outside this repository.
- Do not leave smoke or temporary notes active in memory.
- Use live project docs and current notes as the source of truth.
- Treat
.planning,.serena, and generated benchmark artifacts as historical context, not as the main operational contract.
