Memory makes Flast more helpful over time. Use these tips to build a useful knowledge base.

Let Memory Learn Naturally

You do not need to explicitly save everything. Mention important information in conversation:
Just so you know, I work at Acme Corp as a senior designer.
I primarily use Figma and work with a team of five.
Flast picks up on relevant details automatically.

Use “Always” Memory Wisely

Mark information as “Always” when it should be in every conversation: Good candidates:
  • Your profession and expertise level
  • Key projects you reference often
  • Important preferences (response style, format)
  • Tools and technologies you use daily
Avoid overloading:
  • Do not mark everything as “Always”
  • Too much context can dilute relevance
  • Keep “Always” memories focused and essential

Be Explicit When Needed

For critical information, be direct:
Please remember: my budget for this project is $50,000 and
the deadline is March 15th.

Review and Clean Up

Periodically review your memories:
  1. Check for outdated information
  2. Remove things no longer relevant
  3. Update changed details
  4. Consolidate related memories

Organize with Context

When adding memories, include context: Less useful:
Prefers React
More useful:
For frontend development, prefers React with TypeScript.
Uses Next.js for most projects.

Memory vs. Custom Instructions

Use the right tool:
MemoryCustom Instructions
Facts about you and your workHow you want responses formatted
Project detailsCommunication preferences
Learned contextStyle guidelines
Grows over timeSet once, update occasionally

Building Good Context

Over time, your memory should include:
  • Professional context: Role, company, industry
  • Current projects: Active work and priorities
  • Preferences: How you like things done
  • Key relationships: People you mention often
  • Technical stack: Tools and technologies you use
This context helps Flast provide relevant, personalized assistance.
