# Memories

How ChatGPT and Codex carry useful context forward across chats

![Image 3](https://developers.openai.com/images/codex/surface-icons/chatgpt-app.webp)ChatGPT desktop app

Copy Page

Memories let ChatGPT and Codex carry useful context from earlier work into future work. ChatGPT web uses ChatGPT memory, while local Codex clients use a separate local memory store and controls.

Keep required team guidance in `AGENTS.md` or checked-in documentation. Treat memories as a helpful recall layer, not as the only source for rules that must always apply.

In the ChatGPT desktop app, use `/memories` to choose whether a chat can use local memories or contribute to future memories. Manage the feature from **Settings > Personalization** when you need to turn it on or off.

Manage ChatGPT memory from **Settings > Personalization**. ChatGPT Work uses the memory settings available to your account and workspace; it doesn’t use a local Codex memory store or local memory controls.

In Codex CLI, use `/memories` in an interactive session to control whether the current chat can use existing local memories or become an input for future memories. See [Configure local memories](https://developers.openai.com/codex/customization/memories#configure-local-memories) if the command isn’t available.

The IDE extension uses the connected Codex host’s local memory store. When memories are enabled for that host, use the same chat-level controls as Codex CLI.

[Computer History](https://developers.openai.com/codex/customization/computer-history) is a macOS desktop feature that turns activity across allowed apps and websites into memories and a timeline that ChatGPT and Codex can reference.

[](https://developers.openai.com/codex/customization/memories)[](https://developers.openai.com/codex/customization/memories)[](https://developers.openai.com/codex/customization/memories)[](https://developers.openai.com/codex/customization/memories)[](https://developers.openai.com/codex/customization/memories)[](https://developers.openai.com/codex/customization/memories)

## How local Codex memories work

After you enable memories, Codex can turn useful context from eligible prior chats into local memory files. Codex skips active or short-lived sessions, redacts secrets from generated memory fields, and updates memories in the background instead of immediately at the end of every chat.

Memories may not update right away when a chat ends. Codex waits until a chat has been idle long enough to avoid summarizing work that’s still in progress.

Memory generation can also skip a background pass when your Codex rate-limit remaining percentage is below the configured threshold, so Codex doesn’t spend quota when you’re near a limit.

## Local memory storage

Codex stores memories under your Codex home directory. By default, that’s `~/.codex`. See [Config and state locations](https://developers.openai.com/codex/config-file/config-advanced#config-and-state-locations) for how Codex uses `CODEX_HOME`.

The main memory files live under `~/.codex/memories/` and include summaries, durable entries, recent inputs, and supporting evidence from prior chats.

Treat these files as generated state. You can inspect them when troubleshooting or before sharing your Codex home directory, but don’t rely on editing them by hand as your primary control surface.

[](https://developers.openai.com/codex/customization/memories)
## Control local memories per chat

In the ChatGPT desktop app and Codex TUI, use `/memories` to control memory behavior for the current chat. Chat-level choices let you decide whether the current chat can use existing memories and whether Codex can use the chat to generate future memories.

Chat-level choices don’t change your global memory settings.

## Review local memories

Don’t store secrets in memories. Codex redacts secrets from generated memory fields, but you should still review memory files before sharing your Codex home directory or generated memory artifacts.

[](https://developers.openai.com/codex/customization/memories)[](https://developers.openai.com/codex/customization/memories)
## Configure local memories

Local Codex memories are off by default. In the ChatGPT desktop app, open **Settings > Personalization** and turn on **Enable memories**.

For config-based setup, add the feature flag to `config.toml`:

```
[features]
memories = true
```

For config file locations and the full list of memory-related settings, see [Config basics](https://developers.openai.com/codex/config-file/config-basic) and the [configuration reference](https://developers.openai.com/codex/config-file/config-reference).

Common memory-specific settings include:

*   `memories.generate_memories`: controls whether newly created chats can be stored as memory-generation inputs.
*   `memories.use_memories`: controls whether Codex injects existing memories into future sessions.
*   `memories.disable_on_external_context`: when `true`, keeps chats that used external context such as MCP tool calls, web search, or tool search out of memory generation. The older `memories.no_memories_if_mcp_or_web_search` key is still accepted as an alias.
*   `memories.min_rate_limit_remaining_percent`: controls the minimum remaining Codex rate-limit percentage required before memory generation starts.
*   `memories.extract_model`: overrides the model used for per-chat memory extraction.
*   `memories.consolidation_model`: overrides the model used for global memory consolidation.
