Memory - Compiled Symbolic Memory

Store and retrieve durable agent memory using an append-only log plus a compiled symbolic index.

Install

cd plugins/memory
go build -ldflags "-s -w" -o bin/memory ./cmd/memory-cli
ln -sf $(pwd)/bin/memory ~/.alluka/bin/memory

When to Use

• User wants to remember a fact for later
• User asks what is currently known about a person, project, or entity
• User wants memory search without embeddings or vector databases
• User wants durable local memory that is inspectable and rebuildable
• User wants to recompile or debug the memory index

Configuration

Storage defaults to ~/.memory/default/.

Environment overrides:

• MEMORY_HOME for the base directory
• MEMORY_STORE for the logical store name

Commands

Add

memory add "Atlas deploy owner is Alice" --entity Atlas --slot owner=Alice
memory add "Support ticket mentions rate limits" --tag team=support --source zendesk
echo "Piped note" | memory add --entity Atlas

Remember

memory remember Alice --slot employer=OpenAI --slot role=Engineer
memory remember Atlas --slot owner=Platform --text "Atlas ownership confirmed"

Find

memory find "deployment notes"
memory find "entity=alice"
memory find "role=engineer project=alpha" --top 10

Unqualified facets like role=engineer or project=alpha match the shared exact-facet index compiled from slots and tags.

Supported explicit facets:

• entity=<name>
• slot.<key>=<value>
• tag.<key>=<value>
• day=YYYY-MM-DD

State

memory state Alice
memory state "Project Atlas" --json

Log

memory log
memory log --limit 25 --json

Maintenance

memory rebuild
memory doctor
memory query status --json
memory query items --json
memory query actions --json

Notes

• Writes are append-only to log.jsonl
• Reads come from compiled.gob
• memory rebuild reconstructs the compiled index from the log
• This plugin is symbolic-first: direct entity state and lexical retrieval, no embeddings required
