Overview

Memories let your agent learn and remember things forever — across all future tasks. Perfect for:
  • Self-improvement — learn from mistakes and successes over time
  • Persistent knowledge — remember important facts that apply to all tasks
  • Performance optimization — build up expertise through experience
  • Error prevention — avoid repeating the same mistakes
Unlike context (which only lasts during one task), memories persist across all task executions.

  • Important facts or preferences that apply to all tasks

  • Memories have become outdated or conflicting
