Memory stores durable facts and preferences Sofie may use later. Use Memory for information that should influence future conversations, such as your role, recurring work preferences, current project context, or the way you prefer review outputs.
Memory is not a source of record. Use Workspaces, CoDrafts, CoSheets, CoMeetings, and cited sources for project evidence and controlled content.
Do not store sensitive or temporary details as Memory unless they should influence future Sofie conversations. Delete stale memories when your work changes.
Open Memories
Open Manage Memory from the user menu when available. The Memories page includes:
- Memories
- Directives
- Episodes
- Knowledge Graph
- Analytics
This page focuses on Memories. For standing rules, see Directives.
What belongs in Memory
Good Memory examples:
I work in MSAT and prefer technical summaries with assumptions separated.
For validation reviews, I prefer tables with requirement ID, gap, rationale, and SME question.
My current project is a sterile fill-finish tech transfer.
When reviewing deviation materials, I prefer facts, assumptions, missing evidence, and next checks separated.
Avoid memories that are:
- Too broad:
Always be detailed.
- Temporary:
Today I am reviewing File A.
- Source facts that belong in a Workspace or document.
- Controlled conclusions that need source review.
- Instructions better handled as Directives.
Memory fields
When you create or edit Memory, Sofie can show fields such as:
| Field | How to use it |
|---|
| Content | The fact or preference Sofie should remember. |
| Type | Classify the Memory as Preference, Fact, Context, or Observation. |
| Importance | Use High, Medium, or Low to indicate how important the Memory is. |
| Reasoning | Explain why the Memory matters. |
| Tags | Add short labels that make Memory easier to review. |
| Entities | Add related names, systems, projects, or topics when useful. |
| Scope | Review whether the Memory is global or tied to a Workspace. |
| Usage | See how often the Memory has been used when available. |
Write Memory as a stable sentence. Short, specific Memory is easier to review than a long paragraph.
Create Memory manually
Open Manage Memory
Open the Memories page from the user menu.
Stay on Memories
Select the Memories tab.
Click Create
Click Create.
Enter the content
Write the fact or preference in Content.
Set type and importance
Choose the Memory Type and Importance.
Add optional details
Add Reasoning, Tags, or Entities when they make later review easier.
Review existing Memory
Use the Memory table to review:
- Content: what Sofie may remember.
- Type: preference, fact, context, or observation.
- Importance: how strongly the Memory should matter.
- Source: where the Memory came from when available.
- Usage: how often it has been used.
- Scope: whether it is global or Workspace-specific.
- Created: when it was created.
Search Memory before creating a new one. This avoids duplicates and helps you find stale entries.
Edit or delete Memory
Search or scan
Find the Memory you want to change.
Open the row menu
Use the row action menu.
Edit or delete
Choose Edit to update the Memory or Delete to remove it.
Confirm deletion
Confirm only when Sofie should no longer use that information.
Delete Memory when:
- Your role or project changed.
- The Memory is too broad.
- It contains temporary source facts.
- It duplicates a clearer Memory.
- It could bias future work in the wrong direction.
Memory and Workspaces
Use Memory for stable user preferences. Use a Workspace for source material and shared project knowledge.
| Information | Put it in |
|---|
| ”I prefer gap tables for validation reviews.” | Memory |
| Project files, requirements, protocols, batch records, meeting notes | Workspace |
| ”For this project, Product A is in Stage 2 PPQ.” | Workspace source or project CoDraft |
| ”When drafting for QA, keep conclusions source-backed.” | Directive |
Ask Sofie to use or ignore Memory
You can tell Sofie how to treat Memory in a chat.
Use Memory:
Use my usual validation review preferences, but cite source documents for each finding.
Ignore Memory:
For this answer, do not rely on Memory. Use only the attached protocol and the selected Workspace.
Check Memory influence:
Before answering, list any Memory or Directive that may influence your response.
