Feature Catalog
Memo ships with a comprehensive set of local-first AI capabilities. Every feature runs on-device by default with opt-in cloud extensions.
Intelligence & Memory
| Feature |
Status |
Description |
| RAG Semantic Memory |
Stable |
768-dim vector embeddings, chunked document ingestion, cross-mode recall |
| Contextual Recall |
Stable |
Automatic context injection from past conversations and ingested documents |
| Infinite Context |
Stable |
Chunked document storage with lazy loading; no token limit on stored knowledge |
| Cross-Mode Memory |
Stable |
External chat memory + local embedding server — single vector store for all sources |
| Incognito Mode |

Zero-persistence sessions — no writes to disk, no vector indexing, no history |
Model Management
| Feature |
Status |
Description |
| The Factory / Discover |
Stable |
Built-in model store with HuggingFace search, browse, and download; OR-combined multi-select filters (Tools/Vision/Code/Embedding/Size) |
| Background Downloader |
Stable |
Multiple concurrent downloads (no longer one-at-a-time), combined progress in the engine status bar |
| System Diagnostics |
Stable |
Auto-detects NVIDIA VRAM, AMD VRAM, system RAM; first-run setup recommends a matching chat + memory model pair |
| Hardware Compatibility Badges |
Stable |
At-a-glance indicators: GPU-accelerated, CPU-only, RAM requirements |
| Quantization Labels |
Stable |
Plain-language model quality descriptions (Q4_K_M → "Great quality, fast") |
| Two-Panel Layout |
Stable |
Downloaded models + HuggingFace catalogue side by side |
| Real Capability Detection |
Stable |
Tool-calling/code badges derived from the model's actual chat template and tags, not a hardcoded list |
| Context Size Guard |
Stable |
Reads the model's real max context from the file; the slider can't be pushed past it |

Agent Mode
| Feature |
Status |
Description |
| Built-in Tools |
Stable |
22 tools with JSON schemas: file read/edit/write, run_command, web search, calendar, routines, WhatsApp, provider config |
| Permission System |
Stable |
Danger-level based (safe/medium/dangerous) — safe tools always auto-run; medium/dangerous ones prompt with 6 possible responses (allow once/session/forever, deny once/forever, or a 60s auto-deny timeout) |
| Security Sandbox |
Stable |
Path validation, 23-pattern command blacklist, 30 req/min rate limit |
| Pipeline |
Stable |
Iterative tool-calling loop (max 40 iterations) with an audit trail persisted to disk |
| Web Search |
Stable |
Scoped, single-tool version of the same agent pipeline for plain chat — see Agent Mode |
| Provider Requirement |
— |
An external provider is the reliable path; a running local llama.cpp model is also wrapped into the same tool-calling request, but real support varies a lot by model |
Orchestra Mode
| Feature |
Status |
Description |
| Chief + 8 Expert Roles |
Stable |
Specialist agents (researcher, coder, reviewer, writer, analyst, architect, debugger, planner) |
| Three-Phase Workflow |

Plan → Execute → Synthesize with dependency graph |
| Parallel Execution |
Stable |
Independent tasks run concurrently via goroutines |
| Progress Streaming |
Stable |
Real-time SSE updates during orchestration |
| Slash Command |
Stable |
/orchestra to invoke from any chat |
| Orchestra + Agent Mode Together |
Stable (v3.5.5) |
Each delegated task now runs through the same real, sandboxed, permission-gated agent pipeline a direct agent chat uses — real tool calls, not simulated ones |

Automation & Self-Awareness
| Feature |
Status |
Description |
| Routines |
Stable |
Scheduled automations in plain language — simple prompt or full agent run, device-local timezone; creatable, listable, and cancellable straight from WhatsApp or Telegram as of v3.9.0 |

Stable |
On by default (subtle); notices habits/patterns and surfaces them via a suggestion banner or woven into a reply |
Self-Insight (/insight) |
Stable |

Stable |
Settings → Stats: requests, tokens, tokens/sec, most-used model, 30-day chart, per-model breakdown |
