ChatGPT memory helps.
Local MD files help.
But neither travels cleanly across everything I use, and packing too much into MD files eats context and tokens.
With Empirical, I keep my AGENTS.md lean and let Codex pull context dynamically when it actually needs it.
I can open ChatGPT on my phone, connected to Empirical, and it pulls the same memory context and writing tone I use in Codex or any other connected AI tool.
That means:
- less repeated setup
- cleaner, cheaper prompts
- more consistent output across sessions
This is just the tip of the iceberg.
I wrote up a Codex example here:
