# Inspect, correct, and organize memory

Open **Settings → Memory** to inspect what Gideon remembers, test recall, and review changes. A memory should remain correct and attributable as your work changes.

## Find and edit a record
Search or filter by kind. Semantic records hold facts and preferences; episodic records capture past experience; lessons capture corrective guidance. Select a record to inspect it and its entity links. Edit a fact or lesson when you have a specific correction. Delete a record you no longer want used.

## Review the history
The Events view records memory writes, updates, and deletions. **Undo this memory change** reverses the selected change where supported. Inspect the current record afterwards; an event list is a history of changes, not a guarantee every past value is still the desired one.

## Try recall
Use the context preview to see what would enter a prompt for a query. Use deep recall to ask a question across facts and episodes. Compare the result with the stored material. Empty recall is different from a claim that no relevant fact exists.

## Maintain the library
Health checks identify duplicate, stale, and contradictory facts. Consolidation and Dreaming review episodic material for recurring context worth preserving. Daily digests summarize a day’s memory activity. Review the result before treating a derived summary as a primary source.

## Optional recall behavior
Entity links connect named people, projects, and tools. Volunteered memory offers related facts when enabled. Topology orientation provides a small map of known neighborhoods. Claim attribution distinguishes who said something. These are optional context behaviors; tune them only when you understand the benefit and review their output.

## Markdown vault
Vault modes include off, mirror, and two-way. Mirror projects memory into readable Markdown; two-way can read supported edits back into memory. Files in the vault’s raw folder enter Knowledge ingestion instead. A custom vault path may fall outside a self-hosted snapshot; review backup coverage.
