Question
What did we agree to deliver, and what still needs a decision?
Personal working system / 2026–Present
Knowledge systems · Independent projectAI Working Memory
I built a source-grounded working memory for projects, decisions, agreements and the questions still worth answering.
Keep the original material and its context intact.
Connect projects, decisions, people, and source-linked claims.
Retrieve the useful account and verify the underlying evidence.
Distinguish known facts, contradictions, and questions worth researching.
01 / The problem
Useful context accumulates in calls, files and conversations. A later decision may depend on a small qualification or agreement that never made it into the final document. I needed a way to recover that context without reconstructing the history each time.
02 / The build
The system keeps original sources, maintained knowledge and working drafts in separate layers. Project and company accounts connect the useful facts, decisions and open questions. An answer can return to the original passage when exact wording or attribution matters.
The structure developed around the jobs I use it for: recording experience, asking questions, preparing communication and deciding which gaps deserve more investigation. It distinguishes current attention from historical company work, so an old backlog does not silently become today’s priority. Conflicting accounts remain visible until the evidence resolves them.
I defined the purposes and developed the framework with AI, then refined the structure and operating rules through use. My work centers on what the system should remember, how it should retrieve it and how it should avoid treating generated text as established fact.
03 / In practice
What did we agree to deliver, and what still needs a decision?
A dated summary with decisions, status, and open questions
The original passage, speaker, and date
The agreement, the remaining uncertainty, and the next decision
Illustrative retrieval path. No private conversations or actual agreements are shown.
04 / The result
I use it to recover agreements, understand project state and prepare conversations with the relevant context already available. Its value is being able to continue earlier thinking and investigation. The system can only answer from the material it holds, so missing evidence remains visible.

I built a content system that connects search research, company knowledge, writing, editorial review and publishing operations.
