Personality & Memory

Selu keeps three separate kinds of memory — each with a clear purpose. Understanding the difference helps you know what your agents remember, where that information lives, and how to stay in control of it.

About you is a short profile of stable facts about you as a person — things like your name, where you live, your job, or preferences that are unlikely to change often.

Every agent automatically receives this context at the start of every conversation. You don’t need to repeat yourself to different agents; they all start from the same foundation.

You can view and edit your profile on the Personality page in settings.

Shared notes are searchable pieces of context that any agent can save on your behalf — and that any agent can later look up.

Think of them as a shared notebook. If your assistant saves a note that you prefer meetings in the morning, any of your other agents can find and use that fact too. The note belongs to you, not to the agent that wrote it.

Lessons are behavioral adjustments scoped to a specific agent. They capture how that agent should work better for you — things like your preferred response length, tone, or how it should handle certain topics.

Lessons are private to each agent. Your coding assistant’s lessons don’t affect your calendar assistant.

After conversations, Selu reflects on patterns in your interactions. If the same kind of feedback shows up repeatedly, a lesson is proposed. Lessons that meet a high confidence bar (based on at least two supporting observations) activate automatically — up to ten active lessons per agent at a time. Lessons that aren’t yet certain appear as suggestions you can review yourself.

You can activate, pause, or remove lessons at any time from the agent’s detail page.

An agent seems to have forgotten something. Check whether the information lives in “About you” (always shared), a shared note (searchable by agents), or a lesson (agent-specific). If it’s a shared note, the agent needs to search for it — it isn’t injected automatically.

I don’t want agents saving notes automatically. You can review and delete individual shared notes on the Personality page. You can also adjust the tool policy for memory_remember on the agent’s Permissions page to require your approval before anything is saved.

A lesson is making my agent behave in a way I don’t like. Go to the agent’s detail page and open the Personality section. You can pause or remove any lesson there.
