Memory (Experimental)

Have Steve remember facts and instructions

This is an Experimental feature. Please feel free to try it out, but YMMV. It seems to work best with GPT-4 class models (GPT-4o, Claude 3 Opus).

To access the memory page, click on the Memory link in the left navigation of the Extension Settings. Or click here.

What is Memory?

  • You can tell Steve facts or instructions that you want him to always keep in mind.
  • An example of a fact might be My name is Inigo Montoya and the six-fingered man killed my father
  • An example of an instruction might be Always respond in Spanish
  • An example of something more involved might be your whole resume.
  • Every request you make to Steve includes all your memories. This way you can tell Steve something once and he'll "know" it every time he helps you out.

For example: If I save a memory with my name, job title and company, then in any Skill I can ask Steve to use them and he will know what they are.

Saving a Memory

  • You can select any text on a page, open the Context Menu, select Ask Steve to... and then REMEMBER THIS at the bottom of the list.
  • In Chat you can type remember followed by what you want Steve to remember (e.g. remember that I don't like hot sauce). Alternately if you have some text selected on the current page, you can can just type in remember and it will remember the selected text.
  • On the Memory Page press the ADD NEW MEMORY button, type in your memory, and then save it.

Viewing, Editing and Deleting Memories

  • You can do all these from the Memory Page
  • Your memories are shown in an alphabetized list. Select any one to view it, update it, or delete it.

Pro-Tips

  • Try to keep memories short, as they take up some of the limited room in your LLM request
  • Memory doesn't always work like you'd expect - some models are better than others at using them. You will need to experiment!
