What
Memory recall is Claude Code bringing saved notes into a conversation when they seem relevant. It now handles a second source, account memories, next to the memory files on your machine:
- A new
account_memory_recallattachment type. It is shown to the model, counted in memory-size accounting next torelevant_memories, and draws nothing in the message view. - The recall selector gets the names of recalled account memories and the turn count. It now keeps only text entries that pass a validity check.
- The old listing of memory files, which ended with "... more memories not listed", is replaced.
- The screen can show "Recalled N local memories" and " · local" when a local-recall flag is set.
- When an earlier memory snapshot is withdrawn from shared cowork memory, the model is now told: "The memory snapshot shown earlier has been removed from this conversation; do not rely on anything it said." This replaces "The previous memory snapshot was withdrawn; disregard it." This reminder also takes a new
toolsOnlyoption. - New reason texts: "after auto-memory was turned off for this session" and "after auto-memory was turned back on for this session".
Why
What Claude sees from memory may now include account memories as well as local files, and the "local" label shows which kind you are looking at.
Something disagreesSomething we can check disagrees with this entry, or the writer said they could not settle it.
The writer flagged doubt
It is not clear what switches on account memory or what decides when the local label appears.
