Parallel Memory

Action: $ARGUMENTS

Requires
parallel-cli >=0.8.1
. If the installed version is older, or
parallel-cli memory --help
fails with
no such command
or similar, tell the user to update
parallel-cli
, then retry.

When to use

Inspect memory only when prior Parallel work may help fulfill the request or the user asks to retrieve, evict, or clear it.
Memory results are excerpts from past runs; fetch the source run for full records, and launch a fresh run when current information is required.

Choose the operation

User intent	Operation
Recall prior work about a topic	Retrieve with a concise query
Show recent past runs	Retrieve without `query`
Remove one saved Task, Monitor, or FindAll source	Evict by exact `kind` and `id`
Permanently remove all entries from your personal Memory	Clear memory
Turn memory off	Direct the user to account settings; do not clear as a substitute

Use the CLI

Use

parallel-cli memory

for retrieve, evict, and clear operations.

If memory is not eligible, report the returned reason; it distinguishes rollout, organization settings, account opt-in, and key eligibility.
On a key-eligibility error, tell the user to reauthenticate.

Retrieve memory

Form a short semantic query that describes the prior work to find. Apply filters when they help. Empty

results

is a successful retrieval with no matches, not an error.

Set
```
kind
```
to
```
task
```
,
```
monitor
```
, or
```
findall
```
when it clearly narrows the retrieval.
Set
```
since
```
for an explicit timestamp boundary (RFC 3339, e.g.
```
2026-08-01T00:00:00Z
```
).
Omit
```
query
```
when retrieving recent memories rather than a topic.

Retrieve by query:

bash

parallel-cli memory retrieve \
  --query "serverless inference vendors"

For recent memories:

bash

parallel-cli memory retrieve \
  --limit 5

Use results

Available fields vary by

kind

:

task

: use

id

,

updated_at

,

input_excerpt

, and

output_excerpt

.

```
monitor
```
: use the monitor
```
id
```
, status, query excerpt, and matching event IDs, timestamps, and excerpts.
```
findall
```
: use
```
id
```
,
```
updated_at
```
, objective excerpt, and
```
matched_count
```
.
Fetch the original Task result, Monitor events, or FindAll result when exact output, entities, citations, or provenance matter.
Summarize the useful findings and unresolved questions.
Lead with what the prior work established, then list the contributing saved runs with kind, ID, and timestamp.
Distinguish recalled information from any fresh verification.
Parallel runs do not consult Memory. If recalled information may be useful, include the relevant details in the new run's input.

Expect ingestion to be asynchronous. Do not promise that a newly completed run will be immediately retrievable.

Evict or clear memory

Evict a single run from your personal Memory, or clear it entirely. These do not delete the underlying Parallel runs. Ask for confirmation before clearing unless the user already asked for it.

bash

parallel-cli memory evict \
  --kind task \
  --id "trun_example"

bash

parallel-cli memory clear \
  --confirm-clear
