Why remembered context deserves a separate review

Chat history, saved memory, custom instructions, and model-improvement settings can be separate controls with different deletion behavior.

A calm inventory lets the user keep useful preferences while removing sensitive details and choosing which subjects belong with a person instead.

The protocol

  1. List the details the assistant appears to remember without pasting them into another service.
  2. Open the provider's memory, history, privacy, and training controls.
  3. Choose what remains useful, what should be deleted, and what should never be saved again.
  4. Pick one category of important conversation to route to a trusted person.
  5. Set a date to review the controls after product updates.
