    This is a project that I have been building for a while now, YourMemory is a solution to agentic memory which focuses on pruning of noise rather than hoarding of data. In the current state of agentic memory most of the context is stored in the form of a MD file or is derived through a RAG model where you store each and everything. Both of the solution leads to bloated context which does not optimize the usage of any tokens. In this system we only keep relevant data in our memory and prune all the unnecessary data. The relevance of a data is derived through multiple factors such as recall…

    Most AI agents forget everything between sessions. We built DeltaMemory to fix that. It's a cognitive memory layer that gives agents persistent recall, automatic fact extraction, and temporal reasoning — via a single SDK call. Key numbers: - 89% accuracy on LoCoMo long-term conversation benchmark - 50ms p50 retrieval latency - 97% cost reduction vs raw token re-processing Open source SDKs, works with any LLM stack. Currently in early access. Happy to answer questions about the architecture, benchmark methodology, or how we handle knowledge graphs.

    Hi HN, There’s been a lot of discussion lately around context graphs, decision traces, and how AI systems reason. One thing we kept running into: when AI agents make real decisions, the why behind those decisions often disappears. The context is scattered across prompts, tools, policies, and approvals. Logs show what happened, but not why it was allowed. TraceMem is an attempt to make decision context durable. It records the reasoning, authority, and context behind AI actions as a system of record, not as monitoring data, but as memory. Happy to share more details or answer questions. - Tommi

    Most RAG setups fail because they treat memory like a static filing cabinet. When every transient bug fix or abandoned rule is stored forever, the context window eventually chokes on noise, spiking token costs and degrading the agent's reasoning. This implementation experiments with a biological approach by using the Ebbinghaus forgetting curve to manage context as a living substrate. Memories are assigned a "strength" score where each recall reinforces the data and flattens its decay curve (spaced repetition), while unused data eventually hits a threshold and is pruned. To solve the…

    Hey HN! I'm Arindam, part of the team behind Memori (https://memori.gibsonai.com/). Memori adds a stateful memory engine to AI agents, enabling them to stay consistent, recall past work, and improve over time. With Memori, agents don’t lose track of multi-step workflows, repeat tool calls, or forget user preferences. Instead, they build up human-like memory that makes them more reliable and efficient across sessions. We’ve also put together demo apps (a personal diary assistant, a research agent, and a travel planner) so you can see memory in action. Current LLMs are stateless…

    It's an biological inspired decay system for our memories with extended support of temporal reasoning. Created a CLI command to infer knowledge from the context stored in memory system without any token utilization or llm call. It comes with a memory dashboard to monitor and manage your memories it can be extended as audit trail for agents as well !

    This is a small library for giving an agent persistent memory without running any infrastructure. The whole store is one SQLite file, and the default install has no dependencies. I built it because whenever I wanted an agent to remember a handful of facts across sessions, the options were a hosted API, a vector database, or a framework, and that felt like too much for what is usually a few thousand short strings. The part I find most useful is that recall is deterministic, so you can write unit tests that assert what your agent remembers and run them in CI. I haven't seen that elsewhere and…

    Hi HN, I have been recently geeking on agentic memories, and I believe I finally came up with something that works. I spent the last couple of weeks building a memory[0] for Claude Code that dynamically evolve as you talk with it. I followed a new paradigm inspired from zettelkasten method. Whenever Claude discover something new in the codebase or during your conversation with it, it writes a note about it, link it with related memories, update the related memories accordingly, and store it in chromaDB (this part where it keeps self-evolving based on new inputs). Later when you ask it to…
