Memory now has one switch, On or Off, in the Memory tab of the account
settings. Off means nothing from the notes is put in the prompt, the
model has no memory skill, tool or note kind, nothing is proposed or
saved (also by triggers and other runs that start by themselves), and
the model is told in one line that memory is off. The notes stay and can
still be read, exported and deleted.
A chat can be private: the Memory row of its Tools menu is the memory
switch group, stored with the chat. The narrowest level wins: chat,
agent, person, server. A saved agent cannot widen the choice of the
person. The tools list says which level is off (memory.code, blocked_by,
fix); the chat shows a chip and one line, and the agent form shows the
person's switch as a read-only line.
New API: GET and PUT /api/chats/memory for the switch and the save level,
and GET /api/chats/memory/export for a zip of the notes. The Memory tab
gains the switch, the three save levels, Export and Forget everything.

The Memory add-on only declared three index files, two skills and a save
setting; the host did the rest. Without the add-on a memory proposal
worked but nothing was read back, and removing the add-on silently reset
the save level.
The host now loads the three indexes (user, agent, conversation) with
the same caps and data wrapping, serves context_read, ships the two
skills as built-in skills with the same text, and keeps the save level
as its own per-person setting (ask, auto, never; default ask). The code
sits behind a small MemoryProvider interface.
The add-on stays installed and harmless: its index files and skills are
ignored while the host serves memory, so nothing loads twice. A person
who chose a level on its page keeps it until they choose in the host
setting; auto still needs the add-on to run. A person who disabled the
add-on and never chose keeps memory off. Saved agents still read notes
only when their add-ons list names memory, and messaging chats still
ask before saving.
A person with no note and no add-on gets no extra block in the prompt.
