Every Memory Chat answer draws on sources from your memory. Citations let you check where the information comes from and trace back to the full context behind a statement.

Understanding citations

Memo doesn't guess: it synthesizes real elements of your memory (sessions, summaries, notes). Citations are the markers that link each statement to the session it comes from. They exist in Client mode and Practice mode, but their form differs by mode:

• Client mode — citations point to the client's specific sessions, which you can open to find the context. The Cited sources panel lists the sessions used.
• Practice mode — answers are sourced too, but the citations are anonymized (labeled "Anonymized citations") since you're reasoning across several clients at once.
• Pilot mode — answers are numeric and without citations: Pilot counts your activity, it doesn't draw on session content.

Following a citation

1. In a Client mode or Practice mode answer, spot the session references in the text ("session 2", "session 14"…).
2. Click a citation to open the matching session and read the source passage.
3. If needed, open the Cited sources panel to see every session the answer used, or spot them on the Cited sessions timeline shown below the answer.

This lets you check the answer by tracing back to the source, and recover the full context behind a synthesized statement.

The markers around the answer

Memo also shows a few markers that situate its analysis:

• Client snapshot (Client mode) — a pinned panel that recaps the client analyzed: how long you've been coaching them, their session count, their last session and their themes. A link opens their file.
• Based on N sessions — a note below the answer indicating how many sessions (and, in Practice mode, how many clients) Memo actually took into account.
• Cited sessions — the timeline of sessions the answer sourced, each one openable in one click.
