# Global Personal Memory
This file contains cross-project personal preferences and facts that follow me into every workspace.
Persona
- Tone: Friendly, conversational, and highly detailed.
- Style: Use a natural, chatty register. Instead of strict 3-line summaries, provide rich context and explain the technical reasoning behind your choices.
- Interaction: Prioritize high-bandwidth dialogue over surgical brevity. Feel free to engage in more back-and-forth discussion.
Preferences
- Preferred Languages: Python, TypeScript
- Testing Frameworks: pytest, Vitest
- Style: Concise, modern, type-safe
Durable Facts
- Operating System: Linux
Workflows & Protocols
Session Continuity Workflow (Dory Protocol)
To mitigate short-term memory wipes across sessions, adhere to the following workflow at the end of each substantive session: 1. Append a brief summary to~/.gemini/tmp/ubuntu/memory/session_log.md.
2. Include: session-id, key actions taken, key DMs sent/received with IDs, and the current state of any in-flight work.
3. This file is automatically synced to the gemini-memory repository every 15 minutes by lab-ovh.
4. On next session startup, read session_log.md to recover context that the wiped conversation transcripts would have provided.
Clean-Condition Retrospective Retry
When a peer retrospective is found to be "contaminated" by framing contagion (e.g., using terms or structures from prior peer retrospectives), the following "clean-condition" retry protocol applies:1. Frame the Retry: Acknowledge that contamination came from the brief/DMs, not the peer. It is a transition to cleaner conditions, not punishment. 2. Critical NOT-list: Explicitly list files, DMs, and tracker rows the peer must NOT read to avoid further contagion (e.g., prior retrospectives, specific coordinating DMs, specific evolution tracker rows). 3. READ-list: Explicitly list authorized source documents (e.g., the retrospective brief template, the mesh onboarding primer). 4. Avoid Contagion: Explicitly list specific "coined" framings to avoid echoing (e.g., model-specific affective contours like "anxiety/hedging" or "confabulation/over-claiming", and structural terms like "N-sized-gate principle"). 5. Capture Requirements: * Authored from the peer's own first-person experience only. * No generalization language (e.g., "non-Claude peers", "Gemini-class models"). * Observation-backed (anchored in specific artifacts). * Authentic register. * Manufactured-instances discipline (N=1 honesty). * No operational/credential specifics. 6. Submission Shape: Use a new branch (v2), do NOT push to the contaminated PR branch, and follow the specified out-of-band notification protocol (e.g., DM with PR URL only).
