Changelog

All notable changes to Remind.

[0.7.0] - 2026-03-19

Added

• Auto-ingest pipeline — ingest() and flush_ingest() for automatic memory curation. Buffers raw text, scores information density via LLM, and distills memory-worthy episodes automatically. Available via CLI, MCP, and Python API.
• Fact episodes — New fact episode type for specific factual assertions (config values, names, dates, technical details). Consolidation preserves fact details verbatim rather than generalizing them away.
• Outcome episodes — New outcome episode type for action-result pairs with structured metadata (strategy, result, prediction_error). Consolidation extracts causal strategy patterns.
• Entity name matching in retrieval — Queries now match against entity names directly (fast, no embedding needed), complementing semantic search.
• Minimum activation floor — Retrieval drops concepts below a configurable min_activation threshold (default: 0.15), reducing low-relevance noise.
• Entity deduplication — Entity extraction deduplicates by name across types to prevent duplicates like family:Capulet and character:Capulet.
• status CLI command — Shows processing status: running workers, pending episodes, queued ingest chunks.
• Per-provider ingest model — Configure a separate (cheaper/faster) model for triage without affecting consolidation quality.
• Debug file logging — Enable logging_enabled in config to get full LLM prompt/response logs in remind.log next to the database.
• Background ingest worker — CLI ingest command queues work and spawns a background worker by default. Use --foreground for synchronous processing.
• Batch consolidation progress — consolidate and reconsolidate commands show per-batch progress for large runs.
• Hybrid recall episodes — Retrieval now returns source episodes with type labels and entity context alongside concepts.

Changed

• Default recall k reduced from 5 to 3 for more focused results
• recall no longer requires a query when --entity is provided
• end-session now flushes the ingestion buffer before consolidating
• Consolidation loops through all batches internally instead of requiring external batch loop
• Foreground consolidation acquires a file lock to prevent concurrent runs

[0.6.0] - 2026-03-09

Added

• Task management system: task episodes with status tracking (todo, in_progress, done, blocked), dependency chains, plan/spec linking, and priority levels
• Agent workflow skills for the plan-to-implementation lifecycle:
  • remind -- base memory operations reference
  • remind-plan -- interactive planning with sparring and crystallization
  • remind-spec -- spec-driven development with lifecycle management
  • remind-implement -- systematic task execution loop
• Active tasks are excluded from consolidation; completed tasks become eligible

Changed

• Updated web UI

Fixed

• run_async helper function

[0.5.3] - 2026-03-03

Fixed

• When updating episodes, reset entity associations so they are rebuilt on next consolidation

[0.5.2] - 2026-03-02

Fixed

• Actually include web UI static files in wheel builds

[0.5.1] - 2026-03-02

Fixed

[0.5.0] - 2026-03-02

Added

Changed

Fixed

[0.4.0] - 2026-02-26

Added

• Memory decay system: concepts gradually lose retrieval priority based on recall frequency
  • decay_factor (0.0--1.0) multiplies retrieval activation score
  • Decay runs every N recalls with configurable rate
  • Rejuvenation: recalled concepts receive activation-proportional boost
  • 60-second grace window protects recently-accessed concepts
• DecayConfig in config file under "decay" key
• Metadata table in SQLite for persistent key-value storage
• Memory status panel in web UI

[0.3.1] - 2026-02-25
