Puda Memory
Goal
Maintain project.md as the source of truth for each project: protocol links, and a chronological history so runs are reproducible and auditable.
CRITICAL: Persist all project-related state so runs are reproducible and auditable.
Each project folder has project.md as the single place to record everything about that project for long-term memory. Paths below are relative to the project folder (which contains protocols/).
When to Update
- After creating a protocol file
- After updating or deriving a new protocol
- After every protocol run
What to Record in project.md
- Protocols: Use explicit markdown links to protocol files under
protocols/. In the "Protocols" section, list each as[<protocol_id>](protocols/<protocol_id>.json)with an optional short description after the link (e.g.[<protocol_id>](protocols/<protocol_id>.json) — <summary>). - History: A chronological log of actions with ISO 8601 timestamps. MUST use a real timestamp—never guess or use a placeholder. Get the timestamp from the relevant file: for "ran" entries use the first line of the log file; for "created"/"updated" entries use the
timestampkey in the protocol JSON file. Use explicit markdown links for all file paths. Append one line per action in this form:<timestamp> created [<protocol_id>](protocols/<protocol_id>.json)<timestamp> updated [<old_protocol_id>](protocols/<old_protocol_id>.json) to [<new_protocol_id>](protocols/<new_protocol_id>.json)- ` ran
