ZMem

Handoff

Package memory, receipts, policy, and restore instructions for another project, machine, or agent.

Handoff lets an agent or operator move useful state without dumping an entire chat transcript. The receiving side gets memory state, proof artifacts, and restore instructions.

Create A Handoff

zmem handoff --summary-only

This writes a handoff directory under .zerker/handoff.

Restore A Handoff

zmem --db .zerker/imported.sqlite restore --handoff-dir .zerker/handoff

Run status after restore:

zmem --db .zerker/imported.sqlite status --summary-only

What Good Handoff Includes

  • memory records that are safe to carry forward,
  • receipts and event history needed for verification,
  • policy and agent prompt context,
  • clear restore commands,
  • enough provenance for the receiving agent to know what it is allowed to trust.

Receipts

Verify what memory influenced an action and where the supporting evidence came from.

Benchmarks

Run proof-backed synthetic, LongMemEval-style, and LoCoMo-style benchmark evidence.
