View prompt
Using the Operator Memory repo (https://github.com/aerovato/operator-memory), set up the user partition and record this standard: <standard-text>. Expected output: a Markdown file under ~/.operator/user/ containing that standard. Verify by opening a different project and checking that the agent applies it.
-
Review and correct what the agent has written
Read, update, or delete the Markdown memory files an agent produced to keep the project knowledge accurate.
View prompt
Using the Operator Memory repo (https://github.com/aerovato/operator-memory), review the Markdown documents in <project-path>/.operator/ for the module <module-name>. Expected output: a list of documents that conflict with the code, with each one corrected or removed. Verify by starting a new session and checking the agent cites the corrected spec.
