Personal Memory

Personal memory is a private layer for durable context collected by your coding agents. It belongs to your user account, follows you across organisation memberships, and is not available to teammates.

This is separate from Team memory, where engineering conventions, decisions, warnings, and runbooks are reviewed and explicitly published for an organisation.

Import local Codex memory

Codex memory is stored locally under ~/.codex/memories/. Create a personal Intertool API token, then run:

export INTERTOOL_API_TOKEN="itk_..."
pnpm memory:import:codex

Set INTERTOOL_URL when the API is not running at http://127.0.0.1:3001. Set CODEX_MEMORY_DIR to import from a non-default memory directory.

The importer recursively sends Markdown documents only. Each document uses its relative path as a stable source key. Re-running the command creates new documents, updates changed documents, and leaves unchanged documents untouched.

For larger imports, My memory shows a compact distribution of documents by the first folder in that source key. This is a path-based collection view, not an inferred knowledge graph: Intertool does not draw semantic connections it has not stored. Small or single-collection vaults keep the simpler document, source, and import summary instead.

The current MVP is an on-demand import, not continuous sync. It does not import ChatGPT web memory: OpenAI documents ChatGPT memory and local Codex memory as separate systems, and Intertool does not receive a bulk ChatGPT-memory feed through MCP.

Privacy boundary

• Personal documents are always scoped by the authenticated user ID.
• Organisation members and administrators cannot list or open another user's personal documents.
• Personal documents are never returned by /api/context/search, /api/context/get, or the MCP context tools.
• Importing never creates or publishes team memory.

A later extraction workflow can identify engineering-specific candidates and create reviewable Team memory drafts. Human approval remains required before those drafts become retrievable team context.
