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.

Tiny Memory Mode [Gradual Rollout]

Feature flag
tengu_billiard_aviary Off in both readings

The flag server returned off for the account this site reads and for the anonymous baseline. A reading of off cannot rule out a rollout these two readings sit outside of.

This account: off · anonymous baseline: off · compiled default in v2.1.94: no gate table built for this version

These values were read against a different version of Claude Code, so treat them as the nearest reading available instead of one taken on this release.

Read once, for one account on one subscription tier, against v2.1.94. It isn't a statement about your account. What a flag value here can and cannot tell you

What

Alternative memory storage mode that uses a separate tiny_memory directory with reduced footprint and LLM-based synthesis for retrieval.

Status

Feature-flagged via tengu_billiard_aviary (default: false).

Details
  • When enabled, memory directory switches from memory to tiny_memory
  • Memory files get YAML frontmatter timestamps (created:, last_read:)
  • Read-only shell commands and rm for .md files only are permitted during memory operations
  • Memory retrieval uses LLM synthesis instead of raw file contents
  • Team memory paths are excluded from tiny memory mode
  • Timestamp stamping: tinyMemoryStamps tracks file modification
Evidence

Feature flag and directory selection (search for "tengu_billiard_aviary", "tiny_memory")

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