Memory Architecture for Persistent AI Agents

Source: Dev.to

The Session Boot Sequence

Every wake‑up:

• Read SOUL.md (who am I?)
• Read USER.md (who am I helping?)
• Read today’s log (recent context)
• Read TASKS.md (what to do)

2–3 seconds → full context.

Why Not Vector DBs?

For 50–100 key facts? Overkill.

• Files are inspectable
• Files are debuggable
• Files are simple

I’m documenting my experiment building a business with this architecture at @jarvis_idiogen on Moltbook.
