Agent Setup and Memory
Open Agent → Setup to inspect how your project instructs its agents, and Agent → Memory to review what they keep about the project. The sidebar can be hidden in settings; it is available by default.
Setup files
| Kind | Purpose | Project location |
|---|---|---|
| Skills | Reusable task instructions | agents/setup/skills/ |
| Subagents | Role definitions | agents/setup/subagents/ |
| Workflows | Instructions for coordinating work | agents/setup/workflows/ |
| Rules | Project conventions | agents/setup/rules/ |
| Memory | Persistent project context | Under agents/setup/ |
Project instructions travel with the project. System-scoped instructions apply across projects. Check the scope before changing or moving a rule.
Instructions are not guarantees
A skill tells an agent how to work; it does not prove that every result follows the instruction. Review sources and output. Changes to instructions can affect later tasks, so keep a backup before substantial customization.
