Summary

Cognition adds persistent Memory and daily “Dreaming” to Devin, enabling the coding agent to retain each user’s preferences, corrections and project lessons in a Git-backed Markdown repository across sessions, while open-sourcing its agent-memory standard.

Key Points

  • Cognition introduces Memory and Dreaming in Devin, letting the AI retain user preferences, corrections and project lessons across sessions while a daily background process refines them.
  • Memory is personal to each user within an organization and lives in a persistent Git repository of Markdown notes, with revision checks preventing stale parallel-session writes.
  • Cognition open-sources its agent-memory standard at cognition.ai/agent-memory-repo, inviting other developers to integrate and contribute to it.
