Agent memory is shaped by a personal set of tasks

Each developer develops their agent on a small fragment of project history, even though the true source of experience is every task in the project.

One person completed several profiling tasks, wrote a skill, and learned the typical pitfalls. A month later, another developer receives a similar task and starts from scratch. For that person it is the first such task; for the project, it is far from the first. Millions of pieces of context exist, but they are scattered across local agents and personal histories.

A project needs shared memory, not “my memory”: successful approaches, failures, review comments, QA findings, accepted decisions, and traces of how the agent reached them. Otherwise, several smaller copies of one pipeline evolve more slowly than a shared executor learning from the whole team’s experience.
