In some scenarios, Cascade may require guidance to follow a specific behavior or apply a consistent rule. This behavior can be achieved by creating a memory, which is a persistent instruction that Cascade will recall during future interactions.

The following steps outline how to create and manage memories in Cascade:
  1. To define a memory, enter a prompt in Cascade that specifies the desired behavior, for example:
    remember to always check the abl-syntax rules.
    Cascade acknowledges the instruction with a confirmation message such as:
    I understand. I'll make sure to always check the ABL syntax rules when working with OpenEdge/ABL/Progress code.
  2. To persist the instruction, enter the command:
    save
    After the memory is saved, it becomes active and can be reviewed in the Customizations panel, which you can access through the book icon in the Cascade interface.

  3. To manage memories, you can:
    • View—To verify the memory.
    • Edit—To refine the instruction.
    • Delete—If memory is no longer applicable.
Note: Memories are stored differently from rules and cannot be shared across team members working on the same Git project. For collaborative consistency, it is recommended to regularly review memories and convert or replicate them as shared rules where applicable.
