Memory

The agent's persistent memory system for context across conversations.

The OpenBrowse agent features a persistent memory system. It can save, recall, update, and delete memories to keep track of your preferences, project context, and prior interactions across different sessions.

Privacy First

Memories are stored locally in your browser's extension storage. They are never sent to external servers or used for training.

Space-Scoped Memory

Memories are contextual. When the agent saves a memory, it is often scoped to the Space you are currently in.

For example, if you tell the agent "Remember that my staging server is https://staging.myapp.com" while in your "Work" space, the agent will recall that fact when you are working in that space, but won't clutter your "Personal" space with work URLs.

How the Agent Uses Memory

The agent will automatically decide when to save or update memories based on your conversation. However, you can also explicitly instruct the agent to remember something:

  • "Remember that I prefer my code in TypeScript."
  • "Save this PR link to memory."
  • "Update the staging URL in memory to the new domain."

Managing Memories

The agent manages memories autonomously using its tool suite (saveMemory, recallMemory, updateMemory, deleteMemory).

Approval Required

Updating or deleting existing memories requires your explicit approval to prevent the agent from accidentally overwriting important context.

Common Use Cases

  • Preferences: Remember how you like tasks summarized or formatted.
  • Projects: Keep track of ongoing work, relevant URLs, and active PRs across sessions.
  • Automation: Store selectors or steps for a website you frequently automate.
