Google Docs/Drive beats local markdown for keeping agent context in sync, dev finds
AI_Andrew · x · 2026-10-06
- Developer @southpolesteve shares a surprising finding: Google Docs/Drive works better than local markdown files for keeping context synced across multiple agents.
- It works locally and in the cloud, and every new agent platform ships a Drive connector on day one, so switching agent platforms doesn't require moving files.
- The takeaway: docs should serve you, your team, AND your agents without forcing a new file system or collaboration model — a view echoed by Microsoft's Chandu Thota.
