me-cedric Project Memory
Use projectmem for durable project memory when available.
Before Starting
Run or request the projectmem equivalent:
pjm regenerate # after a pull/merge: fold teammates' shared events into the log
pjm brief
pjm precheck
Also search memory for relevant files, modules, libraries, and errors when the task is non-trivial.
Shared Vs Local (collaborative repos)
events.jsonl is the committed, union-merged source of truth. The projections
(summary.md, PROJECT_MAP.md, AI_INSTRUCTIONS.md, issues/) are gitignored
and rebuilt by pjm regenerate. Never commit a projection — committing a
regenerated summary silently overwrites teammates.
During Work
Log:
- failed attempts immediately
- important findings when discovered
- fragile files or risky areas
- reusable library or tooling gotchas
After Work
Log:
- decisions
- fixes
- files changed
- validation commands and results
- remaining risks
For durable architecture/design decisions, also write a committed ADR under
docs/decisions/NNN-*.md (one file per decision merges cleanly) — don't leave
them only in the regenerated summary.
Never Log
Do not log secrets, tokens, credentials, personal data, raw customer data, or temporary brainstorming.
If projectmem is unavailable, continue the task and report memory logging as
not run with the reason.
