Why
Memory is not a folder. It is what you run against.
A knowledge base answers questions when someone searches. Operating Memory answers whether today's work still matches what you decided — and starts the response when it does not.
Knowledge base
Stores articles, playbooks, and PDFs. Useful when a human goes looking. Silent when a promise slips or a project drifts.
Operating Memory
Keeps priorities, rules, commitments, decisions, precedents and outcomes in one loop. Viti reads your tools on a schedule and acts when state diverges.
Start with the work
Don't evaluate it from a deck. Give it one function for four weeks.
Choose where you still find things out late.
