fix #2898


Important

Add MemoryTool and ReadMemoryTool for AI memory management, integrated into the toolset and system prompt.

  • Tools:
    • Add MemoryTool and ReadMemoryTool in memory.ts for handling AI memory.
    • Integrate MemoryTool and ReadMemoryTool into tool-lookup.ts, toolset.ts, and index.ts.
  • System Prompt:
    • Update system.ts to include memory system instructions.
  • Behavior:
    • MemoryTool supports appending and clearing memory in .onlook/memory.json and .onlook/global-memory.json.
    • ReadMemoryTool reads memory from the same files, with scope options for conversation, global, or both.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added memory tools to read past work and save concise summaries/actions with conversation or global scope.
    • Tools support appending and clearing memory entries and return status/details for operations.
    • Chats now read memory at start and update it after tasks to improve continuity.
    • Summaries kept brief (1–2 sentences) and include file/path references and key decisions.
    • Memory available in both read-only and edit chat modes.

Walkthrough

Adds two memory tools (ReadMemoryTool, MemoryTool), exports them from the classes barrel, registers them in agent tool lookups and toolsets, and extends the SYSTEM_PROMPT with explicit memory read/write directives and scope/cadence guidance.

Changes

Cohort / File(s) Summary
Memory tools implementation
packages/ai/src/tools/classes/memory.ts
New module adding ReadMemoryTool (reads .onlook/memory.json and .onlook/global-memory.json, supports scope/conversationId filtering, returns items + paths) and MemoryTool (append/clear for conversation or global, branch inference, ensures .onlook exists, scoped read/write helpers, logging and error handling). Also adds internal schemas/types (MemoryReadSchema, MemoryItemSchema, GlobalMemoryItemSchema).
Public exports (classes barrel)
packages/ai/src/tools/classes/index.ts
Exports MemoryTool and ReadMemoryTool from the classes barrel.
Agent tool lookup and registries
packages/ai/src/agents/tool-lookup.ts
Registers ReadMemoryTool and MemoryTool in exported tool arrays (allTools, readOnlyRootTools, editOnlyRootTools, rootTools) used by agents.
Toolset composition
packages/ai/src/tools/toolset.ts
Imports and includes ReadMemoryTool and MemoryTool into read-only and all-tool class lists / composed toolsets.
Prompt system updates
packages/ai/src/prompt/constants/system.ts
Adds a "MEMORY SYSTEM (CRITICAL)" block to SYSTEM_PROMPT describing read_memory and memory directives, scopes (conversation/global/both), cadence (read at chat start, update after tasks), and concise summary guidance.

I dug a tiny data den,
Saved bright crumbs for now and then.
I read the trail at chat's first light,
Tucked echoes snug through day and night.
Hop, save, remember — rabbit bright. 🐇💾

Using the timestamp as an ID for global memory entries could lead to duplicate IDs if entries occur rapidly. Consider using a unique id generator instead.

Suggested change
id: args.entry.timestamp ?? new Date().toISOString(), // Use timestamp as ID if not provided
id: (typeof crypto !== 'undefined' && crypto.randomUUID) ? crypto.randomUUID() : (args.entry.timestamp ?? new Date().toISOString()), // Use unique id if possible, fallback to timestamp

280-280: Use a unique ID generator instead of timestamp for global memory entries.

Using the timestamp as an ID for global memory entries can lead to duplicate IDs if multiple entries are created in rapid succession (e.g., within the same millisecond), which could cause data corruption or overwrites.

Apply this diff to use a UUID or similar unique identifier:

-                id: args.entry.timestamp ?? new Date().toISOString(), // Use timestamp as ID if not provided
+                id: args.entry.id ?? (typeof crypto !== 'undefined' && crypto.randomUUID ? crypto.randomUUID() : new Date().toISOString()),

47-47: Use a read-appropriate icon instead of Icons.Save.

The ReadMemoryTool uses Icons.Save, which is semantically incorrect for a read operation. Consider using an icon that represents reading or retrieving data.

13-28: Tighten timestamp schema (prefer ISO‑8601 validator).

Use a datetime validator instead of plain string for stronger guarantees.

Option A (works across modern Zod): use .datetime():

-    timestamp: z.string(),
+    timestamp: z.string().datetime(),

Repeat similarly in GlobalMemoryItemSchema:

-    timestamp: z.string(),
+    timestamp: z.string().datetime(),

If you’re on Zod v4 and prefer explicit ISO: use z.iso.datetime().


153-166: Apply datetime validator to entry.timestamp too.

Align input schema with stored types by validating entry.timestamp as a datetime.

-                timestamp: z.string().optional().describe('Timestamp for the memory entry'),
+                timestamp: z.string().datetime().optional().describe('Timestamp for the memory entry'),

170-203: Make branchId handling consistent (schema vs fallback).

Schema requires branchId, yet handle() tries to infer it from the active branch. Pick one:

  • Either keep it required and remove the fallback, or
  • Make it optional here and in ReadMemoryTool, and attempt inference first.

Current mix adds dead/unreachable code and inconsistency across tools.

If keeping it required, simplify:

-        const providedBranchId = (args as Partial<{ branchId: string }>).branchId;
-        const fallbackBranchId = (() => {
-            try {
-
-                const active = editorEngine.branches?.activeBranch?.id;
-                return active;
-            } catch {
-                return undefined;
-            }
-        })();
-        const branchId = providedBranchId ?? fallbackBranchId;
-        if (!branchId) {
-            return 'Error: branchId is required and could not be inferred from active branch';
-        }
-        console.debug('[MemoryTool] resolved branchId', {
-            branchId,
-            provided: !!providedBranchId,
-            fromActive: !!fallbackBranchId && !providedBranchId,
-        });
-        const fs = await getFileSystem(branchId, editorEngine);
+        const fs = await getFileSystem(args.branchId, editorEngine);

Consider mirroring the chosen approach in ReadMemoryTool for consistency.


303-308: Use globalThis.crypto for broader TS/env compatibility.

Referencing crypto directly can fail in non‑DOM builds. Use globalThis.crypto.

-                id:
-                    typeof crypto !== 'undefined' && crypto.randomUUID
-                        ? crypto.randomUUID()
-                        : (args.entry.timestamp ?? new Date().toISOString()),
+                id:
+                    typeof globalThis.crypto !== 'undefined' && globalThis.crypto.randomUUID
+                        ? globalThis.crypto.randomUUID()
+                        : (args.entry.timestamp ?? new Date().toISOString()),

260-271: Guard against concurrent writes and unbounded growth.

Simultaneous append/clear operations can lose updates (read‑modify‑write race). Also, files can grow without bound.

  • Introduce a simple write mutex/queue per path (e.g., in memory or via a FileSystem helper) to serialize writes.
  • Optionally add a cap (e.g., keep last N entries per scope) or TTL trimming before write.
  • Consider writing to a temp file and renaming atomically if the underlying FS supports it.

Also applies to: 324-335

68-88: Good validation of parsed JSON with Zod.

Using safeParse per item and dropping invalid entries prevents runtime errors from malformed files. Nice.
