Anthropic's own notes go in verbatim, marked as theirs. The rest is my reading, and every entry carries the strings behind it. If one looks wrong, vote it down and say why.

Team memory prompt no longer explains saving when nothing can be saved

You'll notice
Useful2 Signal2
Memory

With no writable team memory, Claude is no longer told how to save memories.

What

When your project has no writable team memory location, the instructions telling the model how to save memories are dropped from its prompt entirely, leaving only a statement that access is read-only.

Details
  • The removed block is the "## How to save memories" section.
  • What remains: "You have read-only access to team memory synced from your project. You cannot persist new memories in this session."
  • A shorter one-step variant of the save instructions is used when no index is required.
Evidence

You have read-only access to team memory synced from your project. You cannot persist new memories in this session.

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
