The problem: small firm engagement letters rebuild from scratch

The fixed-fee engagement letter for tax prep gets re-written for the 50th time this season. The senior partner makes the same edits the firm has made on every prior similar engagement. The AI tool used for drafting has no memory of which clauses always get edited.

Try this use case on your own account

An accounting firm keeps its past engagement letters in shared memory so the assistant can say which clause a client refused last year. The partner's notes are Word comments ("Halloway refused this outright in the 2025 renewal"), and a comment never names its clause: in Word the balloon points at it. The index does read the comments, but off the rendered page, as a line wherever the balloon falls: five of the eight come out after the next clause down, and MemoryRouter attaches exactly that. The assistant names the clause the comment sits under. The same files with each comment written in after its own clause come back right.

What you will see

  • Three Word letters (two carrying four partner comments each, one with none as the control) stored twice: as saved, and after anchor_comments() (about 30 lines of standard library that writes each comment in after its clause, naming it), one project and one boundary each; the assistant is router chat --boundary (gpt-4o-mini, temperature 0)
  • search --types document shows where each comment sits: as saved, Commented [RV2]: … comes out after the next clause for the same five of eight comments in every run; anchored, all eight sit after their own clause
  • Ten questions, 3 answers each, over 6 runs: on the displaced comments, as saved 6 of 90 right and 83 of the 84 misses named the clause just above the comment ("Clause 6, Records retention"), anchored 90 of 90; even an in-place comment went to the clause below it 7 times in 15; the uncommented letter 36 of 36 under both
  • A checker call (Claude copies out what MemoryRouter attached) shows the comment arriving next to the wrong clause. Plus letter and comments subcommands and a local web UI
