Multi-turn history

A delegate sub-agent starts fresh every turn by default. Set history: true and its transcript is seeded from state.kaboo_history on the way in and captured back into the outgoing snapshot on the way out — so it can remember across turns.

assistant_team (delegate):
  coordinator ─▶ memo (history: true)

Config

agents:
  memo:
    history: true
    system_prompt: "Use the notes from previous turns when answering follow-ups."

orchestrations:
  assistant_team:
    mode: delegate
    entry_name: coordinator
    connections:
      - { agent: memo, description: "Records and recalls notes across turns" }

The client owns storage

kaboo enriches the data structure; it does not choose your datastore. The captured transcript comes back in the run's outgoing history snapshot, and the client feeds it back in state.kaboo_history on the next turn. For turnkey persistence (in-memory or Postgres ThreadStores behind a CopilotKit runtime), use kaboo-runtime.
