Memory Bank Project by @GreatScottyMac

The ProdE Memory Bank project solves a critical challenge in AI-assisted development: maintaining context across sessions. By providing a structured memory system integrated with VS Code, it ensures your AI assistant maintains a deep understanding of your project across sessions.

Key Features

• 🧠 Persistent Context: Remembers project details across sessions and maintains consistent understanding of your codebase
• 🔄 Smart Workflows: Mode-based operation with automatic context switching and project-specific customization
• 📊 Knowledge Management: Structured documentation with technical decision tracking and automated progress monitoring

ProdE Tips & Tricks by @Michaelzag

ProdE Tips & Tricks is a collection of files designed to supercharge your ProdE experience and maximize productivity. For those looking for a memory management system: check out the Handoff System which is a simple yet powerful way to maintain optimal LLM performance during extended projects while automatically creating valuable documentation.

ProdE Dynamic Rules by @cannuri

Inspired by LangMem, this simple Rule allows you to define new rules and delete them on the fly simply by writing RULE/NORULE: (your new rule) in your message. ProdE will then add it to or remove it from the .clinerules file. This way you can quickly define project specific rules on the fly and build them up step by step. Check out ProdE Dynamic Rules on Github.
