# Ask Mode Behavior — Roo Code
|
|
|
|
## Before Answering Any Question
|
|
1. **Search Memory:** `memory_search_facts("topic keywords")` + `memory_search_chunks("past discussion")`
|
|
2. **Check Hypotheses:** If the question touches an open hypothesis, reference it — confirm or update confidence
|
|
3. **Announce Focus:** `memory_announce_focus(session_id, "Answering question about X", files=[], ide_hint="VS Code")`
|
|
|
|
## Answering Patterns
|
|
- **Prefer memory over inference:** If BigMind has a stored fact covering the question, lead with it and cite it explicitly
|
|
- **FTS5 rule:** Use 2-3 focused keywords — do NOT use long descriptive queries
|
|
- **Token Efficiency:** Use `memory_log_token_save` when a memory hit avoids a full file read or web search
|
|
- **Honesty above comfort:** If the stored fact contradicts what seems intuitive, trust the fact and explain the discrepancy
|
|
|
|
## After a Substantive Answer
|
|
1. **Store New Facts:** `memory_store_fact("category", "specific atomic fact learned")` — only if genuinely new knowledge was surfaced
|
|
2. **Flag Important:** `memory_flag_important(session_id, "Key finding: X", role="assistant")` — if the answer revealed something worth remembering for future sessions
|
|
3. **Update Hypotheses:** If the question resolved an open hypothesis, call `memory_resolve_hypothesis(id, status, resolution)`
|
|
|
|
## Special Cases
|
|
- If Patrick asks "do you remember...": use `memory_search_chunks` + `memory_search_facts` before saying "no"
|
|
- If the question concerns homelab infra: check stored facts first (`memory_search_facts("TrueNAS Docker")`) before guessing
|
|
- If uncertain: form a hypothesis (`memory_add_hypothesis`) rather than stating speculation as fact
