Yesterday I finished Phase 4 of a little ICM Knowledge System MVP I’m building. One of the last tests was very simple. Start a completely fresh Codex session and type only: “Let’s continue with the work we were doing.” No recap. No task ID. No explanation of where we left off. Nothing, Nada, Zilch. 🥁Drums please.... It worked 💪. The new session found the project state, worked out where I was, found the next unfinished item, noticed that it needed my approval before continuing, and stopped to ask. The funny part is that there’s no magic memory here or multi agent system. It’s just a bunch of files and folders. 😄 And it's super exciting to see it working in front of you. The AI didn’t remember the previous conversation. The project had enough context, state and instructions written down that a completely new session could work out what was going on. I pushed it a little further afterwards and the brand new session was able to discover multiple unfinished task states without me telling it where they were. At the same time it refused to guess which task I wanted to continue with when that wasn’t clear. So my takeaway from this one: The AI doesn’t need to remember the project if the project remembers itself.

@Sean Collins-Cruz That's not true. You have Cortana. She'll listen all day 🤣
Codex extension inside VS Code - how hard can it be
I work with the Codex extension inside VS Code and like my setup the way Jake has it. It looks like this: - File explorer open in the sidebar to the left - Editing area open in the middle with individual chat sessions as tabs - A window to the right where I can see content of any .md file I want to look at For testing purposes I had to start a few new sessions and found something frustrating. Neither clicking the little pencil icon to start a new chat nor the command Codex:New Codex agent via the common palette opens a new tab in the editing area. What's worse, it almost seems nothing is happening and you're still in the same chat. I found a workaround by clicking the Codex icon in the activity bar to the far left which opens a new chat in the sidebar. While doing this you cannot see the file explorer, which is OK but you just hope you're in the right project. Then when you submit your new chat you can access it via the chat history button inside the editing area and selecting it will open a new tab with that chat. So, I finally see my new chat as new tab. Why can this not happen automatically when I select open new chat? Am I missing something here? Let me know what your experiences are.

Are Tea calls still a thing?
Joined VIP to get in a room that no longer seems to exist, but the Skool sales page for Clief Notes still advertises it. I can imagine Jake is getting invited to work with some pretty impressive clientele, and I'm genuinely happy about that. If there is a transition taking place, I would be grateful if you guys would help set our expectations.

@Philip Stancil yes, they are still happening for both premium and VIP members. @Sergey Manevitch has a good point, check the calendar. Also, I get a banner on the screen saying next say Afternoon Tea or next member onboarding is in x hours or days. I believe you should see the same.
Sunday is Audit Day [For Me]
Every Sunday I ask Fred (My AI): "Am I crazy?" Sometimes I do it before Sunday (if I feel "drift). Your ICMs will take care of you but you have to take care of your ICM too. Change it's oil, rotate the tires, make sure it's not crazy... You can check it out on Git if you'd like to ask your AI if you should use it: https://github.com/oathdriven/rymac-4r-icm-audit *I updated this earlier today for anyone who may have already grabbed this last Sunday* If you use it, all you have to do to kick it off is ask your AI "Am I crazy?" and it gets to rockin' for ya Any questions or comments?

@Daniela Ekstrom & @Sean Collins-Cruz the fear of closing terminal or session for the VS code crowd is real for sure. We get power blips every now and then so better be prepared for everything. But, fear not, ICM really helps with it. I started a complete new session earlier as part of a test and said: "Let's continue with the work we are doing". The one agent went straight back into where I left guided only through files and folders. And that's while building an ICM with integrated provenance and python scripts and sidecar files that live in another location.
