You don't need documentation or the 3rd party memory systems. The code IS the documentation.
All this stuff is LLM rube goldberg machines. It just pollutes context.
I barely use AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md these days. And where they remain, it's super basic high level stuff.
I'm honestly still kicking myself in the ass on many projects where I did something similar to this. I kept tons of markdown docs and decision docs. Now those things are just causing problems because they got stale. Even after having sessions of reconciling documentation, the LLM just gets confused.
Versioned documentation is inspectable, reviewable, and easier to correct than opaque recalled snippets. Documentation should describe current truth; append-only events can preserve history.
