Memory
Overview
memory is a route-local plugin for retrieving and storing conversation memory.
It aligns to config/plugin/memory/session-memory.yaml.
Key Advantages
- Keeps memory behavior local to the routes that benefit from it.
- Supports retrieval and auto-store in one plugin.
- Separates route-local memory policy from shared backing-store config.
What Problem Does It Solve?
Not every route should pay the complexity or privacy cost of memory. memory lets one matched route opt into session-aware behavior while the shared store remains configured under global.stores.memory.
When to Use
- a route should retrieve prior conversation context
- the route should automatically store useful new turns
- memory settings should stay local to one route family
