amem

- You: "Don't use 'any' in TypeScript"     → told Claude 3 times. Copilot still doesn't know.
- You: "We chose PostgreSQL over MongoDB"   → explained in Cursor. Claude has no idea.
+ With amem: tell it once, every AI tool remembers — forever.

You (in Claude Code):  "Don't use any type in TypeScript"
  └─ amem stores this as a correction (priority 1.0, confidence 100%)

You (switch to Copilot): starts coding
  └─ Copilot already knows — amem feeds it the same correction

You (open Cursor): "What do you remember about TypeScript?"
  └─ Instantly recalls: "Don't use any type" + all related preferences

memory_reflect → Analyzes your entire memory graph
  │
  ├─ Clusters related memories (HNSW neighbor graph)
  ├─ Detects contradictions (negation pairs, numerical, low-overlap)
  ├─ Identifies synthesis candidates
  ├─ Surfaces knowledge gaps (topics with sparse recall)
  └─ Returns a structured report with suggested actions

# Memory Reflection Report
Analyzed 127 memories in 12ms
Health Score: 68/100

## Stats
- Clusters: 8 (avg size: 4.2)
- Clustered: 34 | Orphans: 93
- Contradictions: 2
- Synthesis candidates: 3
- Knowledge gaps: 4

## Contradictions Found
⚠ Opposing language detected (23d apart, 87% similar)
  A: a1b2c3d4 "Always use semicolons in JavaScript..."
  B: e5f6g7h8 "Never use semicolons in JavaScript..."
  → Expire older memory a1b2c3d4 — newer supersedes it

## Synthesis Candidates
### cluster-0 (4 patterns)
  "These 4 related memories form a cluster about 'typescript, types':
  [patterns]:
    - 'Always use strict TypeScript types'
    - 'Prefer strict null checks'
    - 'Use unknown instead of any'
    - 'Enable strictNullChecks in tsconfig'

  Synthesize into a higher-order principle..."

## Knowledge Gaps
- "kubernetes deployment" — asked 3x, avg 25% confidence
- "database migration strategy" — asked 2x, avg 0% confidence

"Remember: we use PostgreSQL, not MongoDB"
"Store a correction: never use console.log in production"
