OVOS memory plugins: documentation

ovos-memory-plugins ships local-first opm.agents.memory backends. Each implements the AgentContextManager contract from ovos-plugin-manager. A persona's memory_module key selects one. New here? Start with the project README for a copy-paste quick start.

• Overview & how to choose: the contract, inject modes, and a comparison table.
• ovos-memory-plugin-longterm: rolling LLM summarization.
• ovos-memory-plugin-local-rag: fully local, in-process semantic RAG.
• ovos-memory-plugin-lexical: SQLite FTS5 keyword recall (zero dependencies).
• ovos-memory-plugin-recency: sliding short-term buffer (zero dependencies).
• ovos-memory-plugin-entity: durable user-fact extraction.
• ovos-memory-plugin-composite: ensemble orchestrator that loads and consolidates the others (hybrid recall via fusion).

Building your own? Writing a memory backend is a from-scratch guide for both retrieval and non-retrieval backends.

Runnable examples and ready persona JSON configs live in ../examples/.
