Giving an AI a memory sounds great until you ask: what exactly is it keeping? A memory system with no boundary is just a surveillance machine you trained yourself.
The boundary we draw is simple and local:
- Record the work, not the person. Decisions, code, fixes — yes. Private credentials, health, unrelated personal context — never.
- The store lives on your disk. Nothing leaves unless you explicitly share it.
- You can delete any record, and the deletion is real (local file, not a vendor's 'we deleted it' promise).
The test: if you would be uncomfortable reading it back aloud in a meeting, it should not be in the store.
I am building HyperMarrow around exactly this boundary. The docs are in my profile (?from=devto).
Where would you draw the line on what your AI is allowed to remember?
