Memory Tool (save_memory)

This document describes the save_memory tool for Ollama Code.

Description

Use save_memory to save and recall information across your Ollama Code sessions. With save_memory, you can direct the CLI to remember key details across sessions, providing personalized and directed assistance.

Arguments

save_memory takes one argument:

• fact (string, required): The specific fact or piece of information to remember. This should be a clear, self-contained statement written in natural language.

How to use save_memory with Ollama Code

The tool appends the provided fact to your context file in the user’s home directory (~/.ollama-code/OLLAMA_CODE.md by default). This filename can be configured via contextFileName.

Once added, the facts are stored under a ## Qwen Added Memories section. This file is loaded as context in subsequent sessions, allowing the CLI to recall the saved information.

Usage:

save_memory(fact="Your fact here.")

save_memory examples

Remember a user preference:

save_memory(fact="My preferred programming language is Python.")

Store a project-specific detail:

save_memory(fact="The project I'm currently working on is called 'ollama-code'.")

Important notes

• General usage: This tool should be used for concise, important facts. It is not intended for storing large amounts of data or conversational history.
• Memory file: The memory file is a plain text Markdown file, so you can view and edit it manually if needed.
