Octopoda

The open-source memory operating system for AI agents.

Give your agents persistent memory, loop detection, audit trails, and real-time observability. Everything works automatically once you create an agent.

Track latency, error rates, memory usage, and health scores per agent.

Browse every memory, inspect version history, and see exactly how an agent's knowledge changed over time.

Quick Start

pip install octopoda

from octopoda import AgentRuntime

agent = AgentRuntime("my_agent")

That's it. Your agent now has persistent memory, loop detection, crash recovery, and an audit trail. Everything runs automatically in the background. Memory survives restarts, crashes, and deployments.

Store and retrieve memories when you need to:

agent.remember("key", "value")
agent.recall("key")

Want the cloud dashboard? Just add an API key:

export OCTOPODA_API_KEY=sk-octopoda-...   # Free at octopodas.com

Same code, now with real-time monitoring, semantic search, and multi-agent observability.

What You Get Out of the Box

When you create an AgentRuntime, all of this is handled for you automatically:

• Persistent memory — everything your agent stores survives restarts and crashes
• Loop detection — catches agents stuck in repetitive patterns before they burn tokens
• Audit trail — every decision, every write, every action is logged
• Crash recovery — automatic heartbeat monitoring with snapshot/restore
• Health scoring — continuous monitoring of memory quality and agent performance
• Heartbeats — background thread tracks agent liveness

You don't need to configure any of this. It just works.

When You Need More Control

Everything below is optional. Use it when you need it.

Semantic Search

Find memories by meaning, not just exact keys.

agent.remember("bio", "Alice is a vegetarian living in London")
results = agent.recall_similar("what does the user eat?")
# Returns the right memory with a similarity score

Agent Messaging

Agents can talk to each other through shared inboxes.

agent_a.send_message("agent_b", "Found a bug in auth", message_type="alert")
messages = agent_b.read_messages(unread_only=True)

Goal Tracking

Set goals and track progress. Integrates with drift detection.

agent.set_goal("Migrate to PostgreSQL", milestones=["Backup", "Schema", "Migrate", "Validate"])
agent.update_progress(milestone_index=0, note="Backup done")

Memory Management

agent.forget("outdated_config")       # Delete specific memories
agent.forget_stale(days=30)           # Clean up old memories
agent.consolidate()                   # Merge duplicates
agent.memory_health()                 # Get a health report

Snapshots

agent.snapshot("before_migration")
# ... something goes wrong ...
agent.restore("before_migration")

Shared Memory

Multiple agents can share knowledge with conflict detection.

agent_a.share("research_pool", "analysis", {"findings": "..."})
data = agent_b.read_shared("research_pool", "analysis")

Export / Import

bundle = agent.export_memories()
new_agent.import_memories(bundle)

Framework Integrations

Works with the frameworks you already use. Just swap in Octopoda and your agents get persistent memory.

# LangChain
from synrix_runtime.integrations.langchain_memory import SynrixMemory
memory = SynrixMemory(agent_id="my_chain")

# CrewAI
from synrix_runtime.integrations.crewai_memory import SynrixCrewMemory
crew_memory = SynrixCrewMemory(crew_id="research_crew")

# AutoGen
from synrix_runtime.integrations.autogen_memory import SynrixAutoGenMemory
memory = SynrixAutoGenMemory(group_id="dev_team")

# OpenAI Agents SDK
from synrix.integrations.openai_agents import octopoda_tools
tools = octopoda_tools("my_agent")

MCP Server

Give Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible AI persistent memory with zero code.

pip install octopoda[mcp]

Add to your Claude Desktop config (claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "octopoda": {
      "command": "octopoda-mcp"
    }
  }
}

25 tools for memory, search, loop detection, goals, messaging, and more.

Cloud

Sign up free at octopodas.com for the dashboard, managed hosting, and cloud API.

export OCTOPODA_API_KEY=sk-octopoda-...

Or run octopoda-login to sign up from your terminal.

from octopoda import Octopoda

client = Octopoda()
agent = client.agent("my_agent")
agent.write("preference", "dark mode")
results = agent.search("user preferences")

How It Compares

Installation

pip install octopoda              # Core — everything you need to get started
pip install octopoda[ai]          # + Local embeddings for semantic search
pip install octopoda[nlp]         # + spaCy for knowledge graph extraction
pip install octopoda[mcp]         # + MCP server for Claude/Cursor
pip install octopoda[all]         # Everything
