DisclaimerUnofficial, and not affiliated with Anthropic. Nearly all of this is read straight out of what ships: npm bundles, captured prompts, published docs. 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.

Memory Consolidation (DreamTask)

What

A new background task type called "DreamTask" that automatically consolidates memory by reviewing past sessions. It runs in the background, reviews recent sessions since the last consolidation, and updates memory files with new learnings.

Details
  • Fires automatically based on configurable thresholds (default: 24 hours since last consolidation, minimum 5 sessions)
  • Shows a "Memory consolidation" UI panel with real-time status: sessions reviewing, files touched, and running/completed state
  • Can be stopped with x during execution, which rolls back the lock
  • Tracks the tengu_auto_dream_fired and tengu_auto_dream_failed analytics events
  • Restricted to read-only Bash commands (ls, find, grep, cat, stat, wc, head, tail) during execution
Evidence

DreamTask background task system (search for "DreamTask" and "Memory consolidation")

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