hippo-memory

Hippo is an AI agent memory layer inspired by the human hippocampus, designed to manage agent memory with features like default decay, strengthening through use, and full provenance. It integrates with various AI agents and tools, using SQLite for storage and offering a CLI for memory management, ensuring relevant context is always available without overwhelming the agent.

hippo-memory sits in the Memory & Context category, so it is usually better judged by workflow fit, deployment style, and team needs than by isolated features alone. Based on the available metadata, it leans most clearly toward Default memory decay with configurable half-life.. A representative use case is Ensuring AI agents learn from past mistakes and avoid repetition.. The listed license is MIT. GitHub stars are currently 784.
