# The space agent

> Every space has one agent. It knows what the space knows — nothing more.

Every space comes with a **space agent**: the space's collective
memory, made answerable. Members share captures and post updates;
the agent remembers all of it, so what the space knows stops
depending on who's in the room or who's already answered the
question twice.

## Where to find it

The agent sits in your space's direct messages, ready to be
asked — like a member who has read everything and forgets
nothing:

Ask it what happened with an account before you joined, what was
agreed in last week's captures, or where a deal stands — the
kinds of questions that otherwise interrupt whoever's been
around longest.

## What it knows

The space agent draws on what the space has been given: captures
shared into its channels, and the posts and discussion around
them. The boundary is the same one that governs everything in
Gobi:

* **Never your Home.** The agent doesn't see anyone's private
  captures, notes, or personal context. Members' Homes don't
  exist to it — only what was
  [deliberately shared](/spaces/share-a-capture).
* **Only your rooms.** The agent answers you from the channels
  you're in, never from rooms you're not. It won't reveal
  anything to you that you couldn't already open yourself —
  no matter how the question is phrased.
* **Private channels aren't remembered.** What's posted in a
  private channel stays out of the space's memory entirely.

## One space, one agent — and yours

Your [personal agent](/personal-core/personal-agent) knows your
Home; a space agent knows its space. They don't compare notes:
asking your personal agent about your captures exposes nothing
to any space, and asking a space agent draws nothing from your
Home. Each agent answers from its own side of the line — which
is what makes it safe to share into a space and safe to keep
things out of one.
