Creating Memories
New memories enter Membase through two channels:Agent Conversations
Your connected agent calls the
add_memory MCP tool during conversations to save relevant context: preferences, decisions, project details, and more.Integrations
Connected data sources like Gmail and Google Calendar automatically sync new data into Membase as memories.
You cannot create memories manually from the dashboard. All memories originate from agent interactions or integrations.
Reading Memories
Browse your memories from the dashboard in two views:- Graph view: Visually explore entities and their relationships in the knowledge graph.
- Table view: Search, sort, and browse all memories in a flat list.
search_memory MCP tool.
Updating Memories
Memories are updated through your agents, not from the dashboard. When existing context becomes outdated, your agent can call theupdate_memory MCP tool to mark the memory as no longer valid. For example, if you switch from Redux to Zustand, the agent can flag the old “uses Redux” memory as outdated so it no longer surfaces in future searches.
Behind the scenes, Membase also handles updates automatically during the digesting process:
- Deduplication: Similar memories from different sources are merged to avoid redundancy.
- Conflict resolution: When new information contradicts an existing memory, the latest data takes priority.
- Relationship updates: New connections between entities are added to the knowledge graph as they are discovered.
Deleting Memories
Deletion is a manual action that can only be done from the table view in the dashboard.- Switch to table view.
- Click the Delete Icon next to the memory you want to remove.
- Click Delete and confirm.
