Auto-Claude Memory System

Graphiti-based persistent memory for cross-session context retention.

Overview

Auto-Claude uses Graphiti with embedded LadybugDB for memory:

  • No Docker required - Embedded graph database
  • Multi-provider support - OpenAI, Anthropic, Ollama, Google AI, Azure
  • Semantic search - Find relevant context across sessions
  • Knowledge graph - Entity relationships and facts

# Storage path (default: ~/.auto-claude/memories)
GRAPHITI_DB_PATH=~/.auto-claude/memories

Memory Operations

How Memory Works

  1. During Build

    • Agent discovers patterns, gotchas, solutions
    • Memory Manager extracts insights
    • Insights stored as episodes in knowledge graph

  2. New Session

    • Agent queries for relevant context
    • Memory returns related insights
    • Agent builds on previous learnings

MCP Tools

When GRAPHITI_MCP_URL is set, agents can use:

Tool Purpose
search_nodes Search entity summaries
search_facts Search relationships between entities
add_episode Add data to knowledge graph
get_episodes Retrieve recent episodes
get_entity_edge Get specific entity/relationship

Python API

from integrations.graphiti.memory import get_graphiti_memory

# Get memory instance
memory = get_graphiti_memory(spec_dir, project_dir)

# Get context for session
context = memory.get_context_for_session("Implementing feature X")

# Add insight from session
memory.add_session_insight("Pattern: use React hooks for state")

# Search for relevant memories
results = memory.search("authentication patterns")

Memory Storage

Location

~/.auto-claude/memories/
├── auto_claude_memory/     # Main database
│   ├── nodes/              # Entity nodes
│   ├── edges/              # Relationships
│   └── episodes/           # Session insights
└── embeddings/             # Vector embeddings

Per-Spec Memory

.auto-claude/specs/001-feature/
└── graphiti/               # Spec-specific memory
    ├── insights.json       # Extracted insights
    └── context.json        # Session context

Querying Memory

Command Line

cd apps/backend

# Query memory
python query_memory.py --search "authentication"

# List recent episodes
python query_memory.py --recent 10

# Get entity details
python query_memory.py --entity "UserService"

Memory in Action

Example session:

Session 1:
  Agent: "Implemented OAuth login, discovered need to handle token refresh"
  Memory: Stores insight about token refresh pattern

Session 2:
  Agent: "Implementing user profile..."
  Memory: "Previously learned about token refresh in OAuth implementation"
  Agent: Uses learned pattern for profile API calls

Best Practices

Effective Memory Use

  1. Let agents learn naturally

    • Don't force memory storage
    • Agents automatically extract insights

  2. Use semantic search

    • Query with natural language
    • Memory finds related concepts

  3. Clean up periodically

    • Remove outdated insights
    • Update incorrect information

Provider Selection

Use Case Recommended
Production OpenAI or Anthropic+Voyage
Development Ollama (free, offline)
Enterprise Azure OpenAI
Budget OpenRouter or Google AI

Performance Tips

  1. Embedding model selection

    • text-embedding-3-small: Fast, good quality
    • text-embedding-3-large: Better quality, slower

  2. LLM model selection

    • gpt-4o-mini: Fast, cost-effective
    • claude-sonnet: High quality reasoning

  3. Ollama optimization

    # Use smaller models for speed
OLLAMA_LLM_MODEL=llama3.2:3b
OLLAMA_EMBEDDING_MODEL=all-minilm
OLLAMA_EMBEDDING_DIM=384

Troubleshooting

Memory Not Working

# Check if enabled
grep GRAPHITI apps/backend/.env

# Verify provider credentials
python -c "from integrations.graphiti.memory import get_graphiti_memory; print('OK')"

Provider Errors

# OpenAI
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $OPENAI_API_KEY" https://api.openai.com/v1/models

# Ollama
curl http://localhost:11434/api/tags

# Check logs
DEBUG=true python query_memory.py --search "test"

Database Corruption

# Backup and reset
mv ~/.auto-claude/memories ~/.auto-claude/memories.backup
python query_memory.py --search "test"  # Creates fresh DB

Embedding Dimension Mismatch

If changing embedding models:

# Clear existing embeddings
rm -rf ~/.auto-claude/memories/embeddings

# Restart to re-embed
python run.py --spec 001

Advanced Usage

Custom Memory Integration

from integrations.graphiti.queries_pkg.graphiti import GraphitiMemory

# Create custom memory instance
memory = GraphitiMemory(
    database="custom_db",
    db_path="/path/to/storage",
    llm_provider="anthropic",
    embedder_provider="voyage"
)

# Custom operations
memory.add_entity("UserService", {"type": "service", "purpose": "auth"})
memory.add_relationship("UserService", "uses", "Database")

Memory MCP Server

Run standalone memory server:

# Start Graphiti MCP server
GRAPHITI_MCP_URL=http://localhost:8000/mcp/ python -m integrations.graphiti.server
