Glossary

Core Terms

System

A larger product, platform, business domain, or technical system containing one or more related projects.

Project

One logical codebase or repository within a system. This is the default memory isolation boundary.

Workspace

One concrete local checkout or worktree of a project.

Session

One Codex conversation lifecycle in a workspace.

Memory Note

A high-value structured memory item intended to help future sessions act faster or more correctly.

Handoff

A structured continuation record written when a session pauses, checkpoints, or ends.

Startup Brief

A compact continuation packet derived from prior memory during session bootstrap.

Related Project

Another project in the same system that may be retrieved only under controlled policy.

Import Record

A record that tracks imported data from secondary sources such as watchers or relay logs.

Scope Terms

Current Workspace

The local working copy from which the active Codex session is operating.

Current Project

The logical repository or codebase associated with the current workspace.

Current System

The broader product grouping associated with the current project.

Provenance Terms

codex_explicit

A record explicitly written by Codex through the memory tool flow.

watcher_import

A record or artifact imported from a local watcher or cache reader.

relay_import

A record or artifact imported from a relay-side capture path.

recovery_generated

A record synthesized during recovery after interruption.

Retrieval Terms

Scope-Local

Memory from the current workspace or current project.

Cross-Project Retrieval

Retrieval that includes a different project from the same system.

Cross-System Retrieval

Retrieval that reaches outside the current system. This is never default behavior.

High-Value Memory

Durable, reusable, continuity-relevant information such as decisions, bug root causes, confirmed fixes, discoveries, constraints, preferences, and unresolved todos.
