Input: single-file memory migration need → Process: split into permanent rules and live daily tasks → Output: low-drift Bot context management
- Who
- Users who work with Grok Bot on daily tasks and want to reduce context drift
- You get
- Memory split into permanent rules and daily tasks; author reports 'Zero drift'
- You need
- Grok Bot
Constraints
Requires Grok Bot access. Prepare two local plain-text files (bot-memory-notes.txt and todo-and-stickynotes.txt). Content must be maintained manually. Source does not specify whether Grok Bot automatically persists files, nor the exact upload/read mechanism; in practice you may need to paste or reference the files each conversation.
What they did
Author LobsterNestDev, migrating from ChatGPT to Grok Bot, found that putting everything in one static file felt like starting over. They split memory into two plain-text files: bot-memory-notes.txt for permanent rules and todo-and-stickynotes.txt for daily tasks and sticky notes.
How it went
Author reported 'Zero drift' (author report, unverified).
Worth knowing
Source does not explain how these files are loaded into Grok Bot (manual paste, upload feature, or automatic read); no file format requirements, size limits, or encoding guidance provided; 'Zero drift' is the author's subjective description without defined metrics or observation period; not tested by this site.
Steps
Create the permanent-rules file bot-memory-notes.txt
Create a new plain-text file named bot-memory-notes.txt. Write long-term rules, preferences, identity settings, and fixed knowledge that do not change over time—such as output format requirements, prohibitions, and stable reference info. This file persists across conversations.
Create the daily-tasks file todo-and-stickynotes.txt
Create another plain-text file named todo-and-stickynotes.txt. Write daily changing to-dos, temporary notes, and current project status. Update daily or as needed to keep content fresh.

No prompt needed — just follow the steps.
Create the two text files and maintain them by purpose; no specific prompt needs to be sent to the Bot.
