 "title": "Let a coding agent search project decisions before writing code",
 "page_title": "How to let a coding agent search project decisions before writing code with Okf Agent Memory",
 "summary": "Store decisions as OKF concepts and have the agent search them before it edits anything.",
 "who": "A developer using an AI coding agent who keeps re-explaining architecture decisions and gets inconsistent code as a result.",
 "problem": "Context windows reset, so architectural decisions and operational facts are lost unless stored somewhere the agent can find them.",
 "outcome": "The agent looks up relevant decisions with search and show before acting, instead of relying on a monolithic AGENTS.md.",
 "steps": [
  "Run `make build` in the cloned repository to create bin/okf.",
  "Add a concept file for a decision under the knowledge/ folder, such as decisions/auth.md.",
  "Run `./bin/okf validate knowledge --strict --drift` to confirm the new concept is well formed.",
  "Run `./bin/okf search \"authentication\"` to confirm the concept is found by a plain-language query.",
  "Run `./bin/okf show decisions/auth` to confirm the full concept text is returned for the agent to read."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Using the okf-memory/okf-agent-memory repo, search the project knowledge for <topic> with the okf search command before you write any code. Report the concept IDs returned and the decision each one records. Verify that you read the full concept with the show command before making changes.",
 "agents": [
  "any"
 ],
 "difficulty": "Intermediate",
 "time": "30 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "The README describes an embedded MCP server and the okf_search and okf_show tools, but the excerpt does not show how to register them with a specific agent, so check the full docs for that setup.",
 "category": "Software and DevOps",
 "tags": [
  "Software and DevOps"
 ],
 "lang": "go",
 "requirements": [
  "A Git repository where the agent works",
  "A Go toolchain and make, since the README builds the tool with make build",
  "Clone access to github.com/okf-memory/okf-agent-memory"
