# Memory & Personalization

Nova remembers your conversations and can learn context-specific information about your server or group. This makes interactions faster and more relevant over time.

***

### How Memory Works

Nova uses a tiered memory system:

* **Recent context** — Nova remembers the last few messages in your conversation for natural follow-ups
* **Short-term memory** — Key topics from the last 48 hours are retained for continuity
* **Long-term memory** — Important facts and summaries are stored for up to 30 days

Blockchain-related conversations are prioritized for longer retention.

***

### Teaching Nova

You can ask Nova to remember specific facts about your server or group.

**Example prompts:**

> *"Remember that our project token is WELSH"*\
> \&#xNAN;*"Our treasury address is SP123..."*\
> \&#xNAN;*"We use ALEX DEX for all our swaps"*

Nova will store these facts and recall them in future conversations within the same context.

***

### Recalling Memories

**Example prompts:**

> *"What do you remember about our project?"*\
> \&#xNAN;*"What's our treasury address?"*

***

### User Preferences

Personalize how Nova interacts with you.

**Example prompts:**

> *"Set my timezone to UTC-5"*\
> \&#xNAN;*"I prefer detailed responses"*\
> \&#xNAN;*"My preferred language is Spanish"*

**Available preferences:**

* Timezone
* Response style (concise vs detailed)
* Language preference
* Personal notes

Your preferences follow you across all servers and groups where Nova is active.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.zeroauthority.xyz/nova-bot/nova-ai-agent/memory-and-personalization.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
