Grok Build ships cross-session memory that logs conventions and decisions to Markdown

minchoi · x · 2026-09-18

xAI announced that Grok Build now carries conventions, decisions, and project facts across sessions. After each turn, the agent reviews the exchange in the background and writes durable notes to Markdown topic files; new sessions read those notes before touching related code — e.g. learning the test suite must run via just test (which starts the test database) instead of a failing bare cargo test. Memory can be browsed with /memory browse, consolidated with /dream consolidate, and is enabled with GROKMEMORY=1. In xAI's demo, the memory file correctly guided a webhook retry implementation to 151 passing tests.
