Memory

In .me, Memory is the public, redacted event log exposed by the runtime.

You can access it through:

me.memories
me.inspect().memories
me.exportSnapshot().memories

This public Memory shape is intentionally redacted — it never exposes internal forensic fields such as effectiveSecret.

If you need the full internal log (for kernel debugging), you can access me._memories. Note that this is not part of the public API.

Preferred APIs

Read public memories: me.memories or me.inspect().memories
Export safe state: me.exportSnapshot()
Restore / replay: me.replayMemories(memories)

Public `Memory` vs Internal `KernelMemory`

Type	Purpose	Contains `effectiveSecret`	Recommended Use
`Memory`	Public safe event log	No	Most users & normal use
`KernelMemory`	Internal forensic log	Yes	Kernel debugging only

Important Notes

replayMemories() does not append memories. It resets the current runtime and rebuilds the entire state from the provided log.
Both importSnapshot() and replayMemories() accept public Memory[] as well as legacy/internal payloads.

Quick Example

import ME from "this.me";

const me = new ME();

// Get public redacted memories
const state = me.inspect();
console.log(state.memories.length);
console.log(Object.hasOwn(state.memories[0] ?? {}, "effectiveSecret")); // → false

// Export and restore
const snapshot = me.exportSnapshot();

const me2 = new ME();
me2.replayMemories(snapshot.memories); // Resets + rebuilds the full runtime

When to Use Each

me.memories or me.inspect().memories — Normal debugging and inspection
me.exportSnapshot() — Portable, redacted state sharing
me.replayMemories() — Full restore, cloning, or test setup
me._memories — Only when debugging the internal kernel
