Worked example: adding cross-session memory to Doubao

This page shows how to inject rsrs instructions for Doubao. Cross-session recall depends on the client loading the instruction file and the agent following it.

The problem

New conversations may lack earlier project context.

What injection provides

The injected instructions ask the agent to recall and save reusable conclusions. Memory is stored locally; configured sync can make encrypted records available to the same account on other devices.

Behavior	Description
Recall before acting	The agent queries memory at the start of a session
Write back conclusions	Reusable results are stored with rsrs remember
Local storage	The local runtime holds the data; the cloud stores ciphertext
Portability	The same account carries memory to other machines and clients

Prerequisites

Use the CLI installed by Client 2, or install it separately if needed, and confirm the local Runtime is healthy. The terminal must be able to find rsrs; see CLI access for plugins. For setup details see Installing on Windows and Getting started.

rsrs status

Check rsrs status for the expected mode and any errors. Server is shown only when configured.

Three steps

The workflow injects rules into the client, optionally starts the MCP server, and restarts the client.

Step	Command	Effect
Inject rules	rsrs --client-only inject --id doubao	Writes the instruction file for the client
Optional MCP server	rsrs mcp	Starts a stdio server that exposes memory tools
Restart client	Restart the client	Loads the instruction file at startup

Inject the workflow rules

rsrs --client-only inject --id doubao

Use rsrs --client-only inject --targets to read the resolved path and detection state for doubao; preset paths are conventions, so a custom configuration may differ. The instruction file asks the agent to follow these rules:

• recall memory before the first action in each turn;
• read memory with --json;
• write reusable conclusions back with rsrs remember before finishing;
• mark reusable conclusions important and diary entries trivial;
• structure each record with cause, action and effect sections.

Optional: start the MCP server

rsrs mcp

The command starts an MCP server over stdio and exposes the memory tools, including memory_recall, memory_remember, memory_status, memory_list and memory_show. The command line is sufficient for daily use; the MCP endpoint is intended for clients that register MCP servers directly.

Restart the Doubao client

Restart the client and verify that it loads the resolved AGENTS.md path. Injection alone cannot ensure the client reads or follows the instructions.

Confirming it works

The following commands inspect the injection state and the store. See CLI commands for the full command reference.

# List clients that have been injected
rsrs --client-only inject --targets

# Show the most recent stored records
rsrs list --limit 10 --json

# Search the store by title
rsrs recall "project keyword" --titles --json

Use the inject --targets output to confirm the current doubao status and resolved path. The rsrs list and rsrs recall commands return JSON that confirms the store is reachable.

Pitfalls

Pitfall	Handling
Copied paths from another machine	Recorded paths are machine specific; keep conclusions only and verify paths locally
Proxy blocks the local runtime	Add 127.0.0.1,localhost to NO_PROXY; a proxy produces os error 10060 timeouts
No automatic hooks	inject writes text only; recall and save depend on the agent following the rules
Optional MCP registration	Registering rsrs mcp is optional and not required for command line use
Duplicate saves	Eligible saves run duplicate detection and may propose merges or links; explicit options and trivial entries can skip it
