History and memory
Every conversation is saved on your computer. PP Agent gives you the usual tools for finding and reusing them, plus a memory store for facts that should survive a chat.
Conversation history
Section titled “Conversation history”- Search past chats from the sidebar.
- Pin the conversations you return to.
- Export a conversation to Markdown or HTML.
- Copy a message, or edit and resend your own.
- Regenerate an answer.
- Branch a conversation to explore a different direction without losing the original.
- See token use and estimated cost for the conversation.
Conversations live under the app’s data folder; see Data storage for the paths. Export is the easiest way to hand a conversation to someone who does not use PP Agent.
Memory
Section titled “Memory”The agent keeps notes between chats. Open Settings › Memory to read and edit them.
Use memory for stable facts: how your team names things, where a recurring report lives, or a preference the agent should always follow. Do not use it for secrets or for facts that change often; edit or delete a note when it stops being true.
Checklists and questions
Section titled “Checklists and questions”- For multi-step work, the agent keeps a checklist and pins it above the message box.
- When a decision is genuinely yours, the agent asks a question instead of guessing.
- Read-only helpers can take on parts of a research task in parallel.
Keeping long chats manageable
Section titled “Keeping long chats manageable”/newstarts a fresh conversation./compactsummarizes the conversation so far to free context while keeping the thread./skill:<name>invokes a skill explicitly.- Switching agents mid-conversation keeps the history but changes the rules, tools, and model.
Privacy
Section titled “Privacy”Conversations stay on your computer. The content you send to a model provider, search service, or MCP server leaves the computer as part of that request. See Security and privacy for the exact boundaries.
