OptChat: an endless chat where the AI remembers everything What this is AI agents forget. A chat session fills up, gets compacted or thrown away, and the next one starts from zero. If you work with agents every day, your life ends up scattered over hundreds of sessions in different tools, and the agent can't find any of it: not the decision you made last month, not the algorithm you designed in March, not the PR you forgot to answer.

OptChat: an endless chat where the AI remembers everything What this is AI agents forget. A chat session fills up, gets compacted or thrown away, and the next one starts from zero.

Long sessions have a second problem: context rot. The longer the context, the worse the model works. Compaction ("summarize and keep going") throws detail away for good, and the result keeps decaying. OptChat fixes both with one idea: the chat history itself is the memory, stored as a compressed tree. There is ONE chat, and it never ends.
