Deja Vu Project Memory Rules

Memory Identity

Protocol: Deja Vu Protocol v0.4
Scope: project:deja-vu
Memory root: memory/

For the full protocol details, see docs/protocol.md.

Recall Before Substantial Work

Before substantial planning, coding, release preparation, or documentation changes:

Inspect memory/impressions.jsonl for familiar cues.
If there is no familiarity, do not load memory by default.
If familiarity is weak, read memory/summary.md.
If familiarity is strong, read only the 1-3 linked records needed for the task.
Do not load the whole memory tree unless the user explicitly asks.

Durable Writeback Only

Write back only durable project memory:

accepted product positioning
protocol or starter-kit decisions
CLI scope decisions
release readiness notes
unresolved follow-ups
safety or privacy constraints

Never store secrets, full transcripts, PII, raw logs, low-signal chatter, or disposable exploration noise.
