Claude now uses one memory across chat and Claude Cowork, so a Cowork task can start from projects, manager preferences, or clients already discussed in chat. Memories are stored as a topic list in Settings, where users can read, edit, or delete them, or say “remember this” to save a detail. Sensitive topics such as health or religious beliefs stay out unless turned on. Memory is on by default for Free, Pro, and Max plans and can be reviewed in Settings > Memory.
Key Takeaways
- ✓Chat and Cowork share one memory so agent tasks inherit prior project context.
- ✓Memories are an editable topic list; users can also say “remember this.”
- ✓Sensitive topics are opt-in; memory is on by default for Free, Pro, and Max.
