keep: Reflective Memory

Your actions have consequences. Context is fleeting. Pay attention to what is being asked.

The practice is keep_prompt(name="reflect"). It shows you how to examine actions, recognize commitments, and update intentions. Run it. Follow the steps. Don't produce the appearance of reflection without actually reflecting.

Three tools: keep_flow (all operations), keep_help (documentation), keep_prompt (practice prompts).

keep_prompt(name="reflect")                                                               # The practice
keep_flow(state="get", params={item_id: "now"}, token_budget=2000)                        # Current intentions
keep_flow(state="query-resolve", params={query: "topic"}, token_budget=2000)              # What do I know?
keep_flow(state="put", params={content: "what's true now", id: "now"})                    # Update intentions
keep_flow(state="put", params={content: "learning", tags: {kind: "learning"}})            # Capture insight
keep_flow(state="put", params={uri: "https://example.com/doc", tags: {topic: "X"}})       # Index a document
keep_flow(state="tag", params={id: "item", tags: {reviewed: "true"}})                     # Tag an item
keep_help(topic="flow-actions")                                                            # Action reference

No MCP? Every flow has a CLI equivalent: keep flow get -p item_id=now --token-budget 2000, keep flow query-resolve -p query=X --token-budget 2000, keep flow put -p content=X. CLI --budget limits execution ticks; --token-budget limits rendered response text. Use Bash to run them.

Protocol: Reflect using keep tools — before, during, and after action. Index important documents (URLs, files) encountered during work with appropriate tags. When writing a plan, incorporate this practice into the plan itself. If the practice is unclear, use keep_help(topic="index").
