When a client connects, Mana hands it the active highlight/*, learning/glossary, and config/* memories that you are allowed to read. This text is the standing instructions. The agent sees your organization's conventions before its first tool call. The text is bounded; when a key is omitted for size, the instructions name it. Any agent can ask for the same text again during a session.

In ChatGPT and claude.ai, the agent asks for the standing instructions. The prompt or the instructions block of that guide tells it to ask.
