Here's what it looks like when your agent uses MemoryStack:
View your memories
Want to see what your agent has learned about you? Head to your MemoryStack Dashboard to browse all stored memories.
Memories Dashboard
Browse, search, and filter all your memories. You can filter by agent, project, end user, or memory type (Facts, Preferences, Skills, Habits, Goals, Knowledge).
Memory Graph
See how your memories connect! The Memory Graph visualizes all your memories as connected nodes — showing how different facts and preferences relate to each other.
Bonus: Slash commands
You can also interact with memory directly from the chat:
/memorystack search <query> # Find specific memories
/memorystack add <content> # Save something important
/memorystack stats # See your memory usage
/memorystack reflect # Get insights from your memories
/memorystack consolidate # Merge duplicate memoriesReady to give your agent memory?
