Project memory & context

Workspace folder

Assign a workspace folder to each chat (Ctrl+Shift+U or the header icon). The agent sees that folder's structure and works only with its files.

Conversation compression

Long conversations are compressed automatically: older messages fold into a summary so the agent keeps the task context without overflowing the context window. Compression can also be triggered manually — via the command palette (Ctrl+K).

File mentions (@)

Type @ — pick a specific file from the workspace. This is more reliable than hoping the agent finds it: the file is passed to the model explicitly.

What the agent remembers across sessions

  • Settings, profiles and snippets — locally and in the cloud (via license).
  • Chat contents — locally (and in the export backup).
  • The agent has no built-in cross-chat «project memory»: each chat starts fresh. Keep important knowledge in a reference chat or a note.
