    {"text": "Product X requires 220V power supply", "metadata": {"type": "specs"}},
    {"text": "Product X comes with 2-year warranty", "metadata": {"type": "warranty"}}
  ]
}

Then search with natural language:

{
  "action": "search",
  "query": "What's the warranty on Product X?"

FAQ

Q: How long are memories stored? A: Memories persist as long as you use a sessionId. Without a session, memories exist only for the run.

Q: Can I use this with my own LLM? A: Yes! Use OpenRouter to access 100+ models including GPT-4, Claude, Llama, Mistral, and more.

Q: Is there a limit on memories? A: No hard limit. Performance is optimized for up to 100,000 memories per session.

Q: Can I use this for production? A: Absolutely! The actor is designed for production workloads with session persistence and high throughput.

Q: Does it work without an API key? A: Yes! Local embeddings and search work without any API. LLM features require Gemini or OpenRouter key.

MCP Integration (Model Context Protocol)

AI Memory Engine is fully compatible with Apify's MCP server, allowing AI agents (Claude, GPT-4, etc.) to directly interact with your memory database.

Quick Setup

Add to Claude Code (one command):

$claude mcp add ai-memory --transport sse --url "https://mcp.apify.com/sse?token=YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN&actors=ruv/ai-memory-engine"

Replace YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN with your Apify API token.

For Claude Desktop / VS Code / Cursor (config file):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ai-memory": {
      "transport": "sse",
      "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/sse?token=YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN&actors=ruv/ai-memory-engine"
    }
  }
}

Alternative: Local MCP Server

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ai-memory": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@apify/actors-mcp-server", "--actors", "ruv/ai-memory-engine"],
      "env": {
        "APIFY_TOKEN": "your-apify-token"
      }
    }
  }
}

What AI Agents Can Do

Once connected, AI agents can autonomously:

• Store memories from conversations
• Search semantically through stored knowledge
• Build knowledge graphs from unstructured data
• Get recommendations based on patterns
• Manage sessions across conversations

Example AI Agent Workflow

User: "Remember that I prefer dark mode and fast responses"
Agent: [Calls AI Memory Engine store action]
       [Stores: {"text": "User prefers dark mode and fast responses", "metadata": {"type": "preference"}}]
       "Got it! I'll remember your preference for dark mode and fast responses."

User: "What are my preferences?"
Agent: [Calls AI Memory Engine search action with query "user preferences"]
       [Returns stored memory with similarity 0.94]
       "Based on our conversation, you prefer dark mode and fast responses."
