QG learns to remember
My agent keeps a journal now. What it should keep, and what it should let go.
Every midnight, QG forgot everything. For six months that was a feature: a clean slate each morning, no grudges. Then I asked what we had decided last Tuesday, and it had no idea we had ever spoken.
When I forget a decision, urgency makes it for me. It is never the one I wanted.

Changed
QG now suggests what to pin. I accept about half.
The ones I turn down say more about me than about it.
Measured
212 → 31
Lines read back each morning, before and after the cut. Nothing I needed went missing.
Shipped
The journal: a page a night, back to 1 Sep.
Written at midnight, read back at 7 a.m., before the first answer.
Broke
QG kept every word. By day four, it read back 212 lines before its first answer.
Learned
A memory without a date is a rumour. Every decision now carries its day.
Started
I asked QG what we had decided last Tuesday. It had no idea we had ever spoken.
Every midnight it forgot everything. For six months, that was a feature.
