Cline's Memory Bank is a habit enforced by a rule file, and the rule file is the one part that does not travel. How to split it into Zencoder skills and standing facts.
Copilot puts personal instructions first; Tabnine puts the admin console first. How to collect all five Copilot layers and re-decide every conflict precedence was hiding.
Rename .cursor/rules to .roo/rules and every scoped rule becomes an always-on rule. Roo Code has no frontmatter, appends alphabetically, and never warns you.
OpenHands caps the combined memory indexes at about 6,000 characters and drops whole lines from the top of each over-budget tier. The oldest decisions go first.

GitHub's HydraFusion preview assembles a fresh execution plan per request, with solver and critic legs running in separate contexts. The runtime records each leg's role, outcome and cost, but nothing accumulates project facts across tasks — so the durable layer has to sit outside the plan.
Anthropic's first attempts failed because agents lost track of the project's state and stopped collaborating. What fixed it was a shared record with three properties: conclusions kept apart from the work, a plain-language description on every entry, and one copy every participant reads.
Continue's create_rule_block tool lets an agent write a rule straight out of the conversation that produced the correction. Turn it on, pick the retrieval behaviour on purpose from the three alwaysApply states, and separate the durable facts from the rules before the folder fills up.
Amp and Codex both read AGENTS.md, but Amp searches upward and pulls subtree files opportunistically while Codex walks downward from the project root, takes at most one file per directory and stops at a byte cap. Here is what transfers, what does not, and where to put the rest.
Kilo Code deprecated its memory bank feature in favour of AGENTS.md — but AGENTS.md is write-protected there, so pouring a self-updating memory bank into it turns every update into an approval prompt. Re-attach the instruction, keep the content where it is, and give the record somewhere to live that is not a repo.
opencode can read your existing Cursor rules through its instructions array, but the extension in the official example does not match what Cursor actually stores, and the conditional behaviour of Apply Intelligently and glob rules does not survive the move. Fix the glob first, then decide what each unconditional rule costs.

Augment's three rule types map almost one to one onto Cursor's frontmatter — until Cursor ignores every file you copied because of its .mdc extension rule. The conversion, the nesting that does not survive, and what happens to your Experts' memory.
Codex includes at most one instruction file per directory and stops loading at a byte cap, so a Kiro steering folder does not survive the walk. How to restructure by location, what happens to fileMatch and manual modes, and how to verify what actually loaded.

Warp's own migration page says there is no one-click Cursor importer and that the automated part covers font, cursor style and default profile. Cursor's four rule scopes, Warp's two, and the filename rules that decide which file wins.
Manus produces two shapes of your data and neither is the shape Codex reads: the plaintext export cannot be restored, and the backup can only go back into Manus. What transfers, what you rewrite, and how Codex concatenates it under a 32 KiB cap.
Cline's docs call Memory Bank "a documentation methodology", not a feature you switch on. The six files, the three commands, which file changes fastest, and what to do about the half of your context that a repo document cannot keep true.
Zed hosts the thread; the External Agent owns its runtime, auth, model, tools and native configuration. The boundary table answers most questions with "usually" and "it depends" — so test the boundary instead of inferring it.

ChatGPT Work is two execution environments in one app, and OpenAI says cloud task information "doesn't follow one universal retention schedule." Which store holds what, and why retention is buying your continuity.
Every Warp cloud run starts a fresh session by design, and no state crosses unless something outside the session holds it. What the environment can't do, handoff's three preconditions, and where Agent Memory stands.
Manus says there is no deadline to restore, and also that restoration can only be completed once. What the package actually returns, what it can't, and how to check your file set before you spend the attempt.
Same vendor, same agentic architecture — and inside a Cowork session, Claude Code prunes any user-scope import pointing outside the working directory and skips a symlinked CLAUDE.md. What to inline before you switch.
Devin's docs state that its default agent for new tabs does not persist memories. AGENTS.md moves untouched; the real work is flattening four rule activation modes into Codex's concatenated chain under a 32 KiB cap.
MemoryLake, Memos, MemoryPlugin, MemU, MemoryLayer, MemClaw, Membase, Memdex and MemoryBase compared as AI assistants that remember your preferences — features, pros, cons and pricing.
OpenAI's notice names a proposed shutoff date of November 12, 2026. Cursor's own docs say persistence lives in rules, not the model — so a model swap costs nothing, and leaving costs four specific things.
Codex's importer names Claude Cowork as a source, but only one row in its table names a source for memory — and it isn't Cowork. What transfers, and what you have to read out by hand first.
Cline auto-detects `.cursorrules` — a format Cursor's current docs no longer mention. The real bridge is `AGENTS.md` plus one shared skills directory, and the work is converting `.mdc` frontmatter.
Copilot has two separate memory systems, one local and on by default, one GitHub-hosted and off. The hosted one deletes memories after 28 days — which decides what belongs in it.
Standalone scheduled tasks start a new chat for each run, by design. The documented in-chat alternative, what event triggers do and don't carry, and where the accumulated state belongs.

Zed reads the first matching file from a list of nine, so the `AGENTS.md` you maintain may never have loaded. Skills move for free; `.mdc` frontmatter is the trap at the other end.
Codex has a documented local memory store, off by default, under `~/.codex/memories/`. The config keys that govern it, and the rate-limit rule that skips your busiest sessions.
How Warp turned disappearing session feedback into a two-skill loop that edits its own agents through pull requests — plus the vendor's own line on where skills stop and memory starts.

MemoryLake, Mem0, Supermemory, Zep, LangMem, Cortex, Second Brain, Weaviate, Mnemon and Cognee compared as memory and context tools for Cursor — features, pros, cons and pricing.
Perplexity has memory for this — it's called Brain, it only runs inside a Project, and it may be set to manual. The three layers and four switches that decide.
Your Manus Skills transfer to Cursor almost as-is — both use SKILL.md. Your knowledge base, capped at 100 entries, has nowhere to go. How to sort the archive.

Claude's memory documents "Technical preferences and coding style" as something it keeps. Here are the four boundaries that stop it sticking, and the three you can fix today.
Pasting your directory tree into a rule is the fix both Cursor and Claude Code advise against. The three real causes, and what to store instead of the tree.

Slack shows the last 90 days on the free plan, and its AI answers cover Slack content only. Why the same questions keep coming back — and how to make answering once count.
Codex reads at most one instruction file per directory, caps the chain at 32 KiB, and builds it once per run. Six silent skips, and the command that shows you the real chain.

A new re-evaluation finds reported gains in two memory-based self-improving methods are noisy and highly dependent on task order. What it does and doesn't say.
AGENTS.md is read by 60k+ repos and most major agents — but not Claude Code. The documented bridge, and the three CLAUDE.md features with no equivalent.
.clinerules has a near-automatic path via /init and /import. Cline's six-file Memory Bank has no destination — here's where it should actually go.
Both read AGENTS.md, so the file transfers free. What doesn't: override files, the ~/.codex global scope, code review rules, and the 32 KiB cap.
