# Managing cross-session coding preferences and project memory

Store, retrieve, and audit developer context and conventions across coding tasks

[Use with BotBento ](https://app.botbento.com/?ref=usecases&utm_source=botbento.com&utm_medium=usecases&utm_campaign=managing-cross-session-coding-preferences-and-project)Copy promptShare[Markdown](/text/usecases/managing-cross-session-coding-preferences-and-project/index.md)[العربية](/ar/usecases/managing-cross-session-coding-preferences-and-project/)

Opens BotBento. Paste the prompt into a bot; nothing is preconfigured.

- When you askDeveloper requests coding task
- ThenQuery database for relevant project
- ResultPresent context-aware code and memory

Keep track of project decisions, conventions, and user preferences across multiple coding interactions. The bot queries indexed memory tables to retrieve relevant context before suggesting solutions, while letting developers review, update, or remove obsolete facts.

## Prompt to start with

BotBentoRecommended

```
Check the local project database for recorded conventions and previous implementation notes before writing code. When you find relevant stored patterns, cite them in your response. If you need to record a new architectural preference, summarize the observation first. Always ask for user confirmation before modifying, archiving, or deleting any stored memory records.
