An AI agent can remember important things across sessions using a tool called mem. It stores notes, facts, decisions, code snippets, and even images in a local database. The stored information can be searched quickly with full-text search.
This tool helps the agent avoid asking the same questions again. It can recall user preferences, project decisions, or technical details. The agent can also attach images like screenshots or diagrams to its memories.
Using mem is simple. The agent adds memories with a plus sign, searches with words, and forgets with a minus sign. It organizes memories with tags like prefs or deploy for easy filtering.
