Memory

Letta

letta-ai/letta

Letta is a platform for stateful agents that preserve and update long-term memory. It is built around the idea that memory management is an active part of the agent architecture, not simply a transcript appended to every request.

THE PRACTICAL EXPLANATION

What this repository is

Letta is a platform for stateful agents that preserve and update long-term memory. It is built around the idea that memory management is an active part of the agent architecture, not simply a transcript appended to every request.

WHERE TO USE IT

The work it fits

Use it for continuing assistants, research or operational agents that must maintain working context across sessions and evolve their stored knowledge.

WHO MAY USE IT

The people it suits

Developers and researchers building persistent agents who can manage memory privacy, drift, correction and lifecycle.

HOW TO USE IT

A sensible adoption path

Prototype with synthetic data and inspect exactly what enters, leaves and changes in memory. Define which facts may persist, how users correct them and when records expire. Evaluate whether continuity improves performance enough to justify the added risk.

  1. 01Choose a task that genuinely requires continuity.
  2. 02Run with synthetic identities and histories.
  3. 03Inspect memory writes and retrieval decisions.
  4. 04Add correction, deletion and retention controls.

GETTING THE BEST RESULTS

Use the repository with discipline

  • Make memory visible and governable.
  • Distinguish durable facts from temporary working context.
  • Revalidate stored information before consequential use.

WHY IT MAY BE USEFUL

The shortest useful assessment

Platform for stateful agents with long-term memory.

Best considered for: Agents that must preserve and update context over time.

READ BEFORE YOU ADOPT IT

The practical caution

Persistent memory creates privacy, drift and deletion obligations.

Confirm the current licence, maintenance status, dependency risk, data path, model access, tool permissions and human approval points at the source. A public repository is inspectable raw material—not proof that a system is secure, supported or suitable for your production environment.
