Semantic Memory for Hermes Agent with LanceDB
Blog post from LanceDB
Hermes Agent, an open-source framework for personal AI agents, is designed to overcome the limitation of memory recall across sessions by introducing a memory plugin using LanceDB, an embedded retrieval library. Unlike other agents, Hermes is not tied to a single interface and can interact across various platforms like Telegram and Slack, storing conversations in a local SQLite database. Hermes employs three types of memory: built-in curated notes, session search, and an external memory provider slot for deeper cross-session recall. The LanceDB plugin enhances Hermes' memory capabilities by offering semantic search and storing data as structured rows with metadata, allowing for more accurate recall of paraphrased queries compared to traditional keyword searches. The plugin's integration with Hermes enables the agent to remember, recall, read, and forget information efficiently, maintaining durable long-term memories without the need for a separate server. This enhances the agent's ability to perform complex, repeatable tasks over time, maintaining privacy and ensuring that recall is precise and contextually relevant.
