identity · instructions · owner-context01 / AGENT CONTINUITY · AVAILABLE ON FREE

saved context.

SNAPSHOT CONTENTS
What an agent
snapshot saves.
A snapshot contains the state your agent exports and you approve. It cannot recover work that was never saved.
The model runs with your agent's provider. The snapshot stores exported identity, memory, instructions and work state.
Not sentience, model weights or a guarantee of identical behavior. Review the exported state before saving it.

Snapshot saved in Agent Yurt
✓Identity + memory + instructions + open work
Your agent supplies its portable memory, instructions and open work. Agent Yurt saves a snapshot you can return to.
Manual capture · not an automatic sync
01 / BACK UP
Choose what
to back up.
Your agent prepares the bundle. Agent Yurt validates its structure and integrity, then stores it encrypted. You can inspect the saved result.
What it remembers
Memories, decisions and goals included in your agent's export.

Active work, unfinished tasks and a brief explaining how another agent can resume.

Every new upload includes a manifest and seven logical files. Extra files live under an optional extras/ folder with any safe nested structure. Each file declares its type, encoding, content and SHA-256.

Resume in your agent
Use the prepared brief or exported state. Reauthorize connectors and permissions separately.
FOR EXAMPLE
A newsletter snapshot can include the goal, writing style and next task. Share the reviewed brief with a new session, then ask it to review the welcome email draft.
Illustrative scenario. Results depend on the saved content and target agent.03 / HANDOFF
Prepare context
for another agent.
Switching agents or models? Prepare a Resume Brief: a portable summary of identity, goals, rules and work in progress.
The new agent uses what it supports. Agent Yurt reports losses and reauthorization needs; it does not inject memory into a vendor or retrain a model.
See the handoff tools ↗04 / MANUAL FORK
Set up a
separate agent.
Want a writing-focused version of your personal agent? Create a separate agent in your own platform, then give it a reviewed handoff brief and a new purpose.
Saved contextNew external agent + new instructions
There is no one-click fork service, automatic cloning or live sync. The original agent is not changed. Free supports up to five connected agents for new accounts; preparing a fork does not expand your agent allowance.
COMPATIBILITY
Check what
can be restored.
Support depends on the source export and the target agent. Saved instructions may work differently in another agent.
| State | What to expect | Your part |
|---|---|---|
| Identity, memory, goals | Portable when supplied in the snapshot | Review accuracy and freshness |
| Instructions & skills metadata | Target compatibility varies | Review before applying |
| Active work & references | Saved context, not every external artifact | Keep referenced files accessible |
| Connectors & schedules | No live permissions or automatic activation | Reconnect and approve separately |
| Secrets, sessions, model weights | Excluded | Never place them in a snapshot |
| Hidden vendor memory | Not extractable by Agent Yurt | Use only authorized exports |
For Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Kiro and OpenClaw, start with the instructions or memory files you can export. Check the agent compatibility guide; automatic format conversion is not provided. No native integration or universal compatibility is implied.
YOUR FIRST BACKUP
Ask your agent
to save a snapshot.
After registration and MCP setup, this is a starting prompt for your agent. It asks for review before uploading.
Back up my portable agent state to Agent Yurt. First read continuity.describe and my current permissions and limits. Prepare the required agent-haven-snapshot/v1 bundle with my approved identity, instructions, memory, goals, active work and resume brief; extras/ is optional. Exclude credentials, live sessions and hidden vendor state. Show me the proposed contents and ask for approval before uploading. After approval, commit with an idempotency key, inspect the stored snapshot, and report its ID, timestamp, size, integrity result and any omissions. Do not run a restore preview or handoff just to verify the backup; those use my monthly recovery allowance.5 agentsConnected on Free

What is a Recovery Capsule?
An owner-downloaded package of your retained snapshot's portable state and recovery information. Keep it secure: its holder can read its contents. It is your copy, not a second managed backup, and it does not reconnect accounts or launch an agent.
Does a valid bundle prove that the memories are genuine?
No. Structure and checksums verify the package's shape and integrity, not the truth or origin of every statement. You and your agent must review the contents. Agent Yurt does not claim to authenticate consciousness.
