Copilot CLI Local Memory

Sep 2026 · Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research)

Abstract

Copilot CLI Local Memory v1.1.2 — Citation and provenance This release makes the project's authorship, design history, and public release chronology explicit and machine-readable. It does not change the plugin's runtime behaviour. What changed Added CITATION.cff so GitHub, Zenodo, reference managers, and researchers can identify and cite the software consistently. Added DESIGN-AND-PROVENANCE.md to record the implemented design, public release chronology, and relationship to earlier Copilot memory proposals. Added Shankar Balakrishna to the MIT copyright notice. Linked the citation and provenance records from the README. Prepared the release for independent preservation through Zenodo and Software Heritage. The provenance document deliberately acknowledges earlier public proposals for persistent and local Copilot memory. The contribution recorded here is this project's concrete implementation: explicit save, search, and delete commands over plain local modular-instruction files, with deterministic search, optional file scopes, duplicate and common-secret detection, and no database or server. Verification All 11 automated tests pass. The Agent Plugins v1.0.0 manifest checks pass. CITATION.cff validates against the Citation File Format 1.2.0 schema. Runtime behaviour is unchanged from v1.1.1. Install or update copilot plugin install shankarnarayanb/copilot-cli-local-memory copilot --experimental Verify the plugin with /plugin list and /extensions manage.

The impact of agile practices on communication in software development

The study shows that agile practices improve both informal and formal communication, but indicates that, in larger development situations involving multiple external stakeholders, a mismatch of adequate communication mechanisms can sometimes even hinder the communication.

Requirements Don’t Live in Isolation: What We’re Exploring with Req-Space

Requirements in large systems rarely exist in isolation. Their meaning depends on the wider project context - other requirements, policies, decisions, tests, and implementation details. That becomes especially important when AI is used for review, because spotting a possible conflict or gap is only the beginning. ReqSpace explores how AI, visualisation, and connected project context can help reviewers understand those findings, trace the relationships behind them, and focus on the questions that…
