context add
.md .txt .pdf; folders recurse). Chunks are
embedded into the same recall as memories, and each chunk carries its breadcrumb (file,
heading path, PDF page), so results always say where they came from.
Documents are mirrors of the files they came from:
- Re-adding an unchanged file is a no-op.
- A changed file replaces its chunks.
- When memloom’s extraction pipeline improves, the pipeline version bumps and
context addre-ingests files whose bytes didn’t change.
A file can enter memloom two ways: linked from disk (this command, stays in sync on re-add)
or uploaded as a snapshot (the viewer’s upload). Linking is the stronger identity: linking a
file that was previously uploaded absorbs the upload into the link, and uploading a file
that is already linked is refused with a pointer to the existing document.
