Temporary chat is an “ephemeral” conversation mode. In this mode, your exchange with the Expert leaves no persistent trace — no memories saved, no history recorded, and no impact on the Expert’s understanding of you.

Use Cases

Privacy Sensitive

The conversation involves sensitive information (such as passwords, keys, personal data) that you don’t want the memory system to extract and store

One-off Queries

Quickly ask a question, translate a passage, or do a calculation — no need for the Expert to remember this exchange

Experimentation

Try different prompting approaches or test the Expert’s capabilities without experimental content polluting the Expert’s memory

Asking on Behalf of Others

Ask a question for a colleague or friend — this exchange is unrelated to your own preferences

How to Use

1

Enable Temporary Chat

Toggle on “Temporary Chat” in the conversation settings. Once enabled, the current conversation will be marked as temporary mode.
2

Chat Normally

The interaction in a temporary chat is exactly the same as a normal conversation — you can send messages, upload files, and use all tools. There is no difference in the conversation experience.
3

Conversation Ends

After closing the conversation or switching to another session, the temporary chat content will not appear in the conversation history list.

Temporary Chat Characteristics

No Memory Retention

This is the most essential characteristic of temporary chat. In normal conversations, the Expert extracts valuable information from your exchanges (your preferences, commonly used tools, project background, etc.) and saves it as memory for reference in future conversations. Temporary chat completely skips this step — the Expert neither reads from nor writes to any memory.

No Impact on Future Conversations

If you tell the Expert “I prefer TypeScript” in a temporary chat, the Expert will not remember this preference in the next normal conversation. There is no information transfer between temporary and normal conversations.

Still Coherent Within the Session

Although memories are not persisted, temporary chat maintains contextual coherence within the session. The Expert can remember what you said in this conversation and reference previous replies. However, this context will not be retained after the conversation ends.
Temporary chat mode is a per-conversation setting. It does not affect your other conversations — your previous normal conversation history and memories remain unaffected.

Temporary Chat vs Normal Chat

FAQ

Yes. Temporary chat consumption is the same as normal chat — the models and tools used are billed at the standard rate. Temporary mode only affects data persistence, not billing.
Files uploaded during a temporary chat are still stored in your cloud drive. If you don’t want to keep the files, you need to manually delete them after the conversation.
Once a temporary chat starts, its “leave no trace” property is already in effect. It cannot be converted to a normal chat mid-conversation. If you decide you need to keep certain content, it’s recommended to manually copy the key information into a new normal conversation.
If you’re unsure whether a conversation needs temporary mode, start with normal mode. You can always delete unwanted memory entries in memory management at any time.
