Memory Agent

Summary

The Memory Agent is the infrastructure layer for persistent memory in mindX. It provides timestamped memory records, context management, short-term and long-term memory storage, and comprehensive memory analytics. Memory is treated as infrastructure, not ephemeral chat history.

Technical Explanation

The Memory Agent implements the foundational principle that "Memory is infrastructure" in mindX. It provides persistent, queryable, governable memory substrate that enables continuity, strategy, and governance.

Memory Types: Interaction, Context, Learning, System State, Performance, Error, Goal, Belief, Plan

Storage Structure: Short-term memory (STM) and long-term memory (LTM)

Importance Levels: Critical, High, Medium, Low

Timestamped Records: All memories are timestamped and versioned

Core Capabilities

Timestamped memory storage

Short-term and long-term memory management

Context management

Memory analytics and querying

Agent workspace management

Process trace logging

Memory importance classification

Usage

from agents.memory_agent import MemoryAgent, MemoryType, MemoryImportance

memory_agent = MemoryAgent()
Store memory
memory_id = await memory_agent.store_memory(
    agent_id="my_agent",
    memory_type=MemoryType.INTERACTION,
    content={
        "action": "code_generation",
        "result": "success",
        "details": "..."
    },
    importance=MemoryImportance.HIGH,
    tags=["coding", "success"]
)

Query memories
memories = await memory_agent.query_memories(
    agent_id="my_agent",
    memory_type=MemoryType.INTERACTION,
    tags=["coding"]
)
