Basic Memory provides persistent conversation memory for AI agents. It stores and retrieves conversation history, allowing agents to maintain context across interactions. The server connects to a vector database for efficient semantic search and retrieval. Developers use it to build AI assistants that remember past interactions, reducing repetitive explanations and improving user experience.
