Your AI forgets every user the moment the session ends.
Magnet fixes that — without changing your code.
How It Works
User sends message → Magnet injects memory → LLM responds → Magnet learns
- Learns from corrections, rejections, and implicit patterns — not just conversations
- Builds a persistent profile that improves with every interaction
- Knows what to forget: permanent, contextual, and transient signals decay at different rates
- Cross-user learning: patterns from one user improve cold-start for the next
Two Ways to Integrate
1. Proxy Mode — zero code changes
Works with OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, and any OpenAI-compatible client.
from openai import OpenAI
client = OpenAI(
api_key="mg_sk_...",
base_url="https://magnet-gateway.onrender.com/v1",
default_headers={"x-session-id": "user_123"}
)
response = client.chat.completions.create(
model="openai/gpt-4o-mini", # or anthropic/claude-haiku-4-5, google/gemini-flash
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"}]
)
Get your API key: agentmagnet.app
2. MCP Server — self-hosted, your data stays with you
Works with Claude Desktop, Cursor, and any MCP client.
pip install agent-magnet
{
"mcpServers": {
"agent-magnet": {
"command": "agent-magnet-mcp",
"env": {
"MAGNET_REDIS_URL": "your_redis_url",
"MAGNET_OPENAI_KEY": "your_openai_key"
}
}
}
}
MCP tools available:
get_profile— get the learned memory profile for a userinject_memory— get a memory string ready to inject into system promptadd_signal— record a behavioral signal (correction, rejection, preference)get_cold_start— get an onboarding profile for a new user based on aggregate patterns
3. SDK Mode — deep integration
pip install agent-magnet
from magnet import BehavioralMemory
memory = BehavioralMemory(reflector_model="openai/gpt-4o-mini")
context = memory.get_injection(user_id="alice")
memory.add(messages, user_id="alice")
Why Magnet
| Traditional RAG | Mem0 / Zep | Magnet | |

| Learning | Static | Explicit only | ✅ From behavior |
| Forgetting | None | None | ✅ Multi-parameter decay |
| Cross-user learning | No | No | ✅ Consolidation engine |
| Model support | Any | Any | ✅ OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini |
| Self-hosted | Yes | Partial | ✅ MCP + on-premise SDK |
Architecture
Three memory layers — each one builds on the last.
Layer 1 — Behavioral (Redis)
Always on, zero latency. Learns preferences, corrections, and rejections in real time. Signals decay by type: permanent (e.g. "hates mushrooms"), contextual (e.g. "prefers bullet lists"), transient (e.g. "wants short answers today").
Layer 2 — Episodic (Qdrant)
Semantic recall from past sessions. Triggered only when relevant — no bloat, no noise.
Layer 3 — Knowledge (Neo4j)
Long-term entity relationships. PREFERRED_BY, REJECTED_BY, EXPECTED_BY — structured understanding of who the user is.
Consolidation Engine
Runs every 24 hours. Extracts cross-user patterns anonymously. New users don't start from zero.

|---|---|
MAGNET_REDIS_URL |

MAGNET_OPENAI_KEY |

Claude Code Setup
How it works end-to-end:
- Session start — Claude automatically reads your memory profile and uses it
- During the session — Claude learns from your corrections, preferences, and rejections
- Session end — a Stop hook saves everything to Redis before Claude Code closes
Step 1 — Install
pipx install agent-magnet
Get a free Redis URL at upstash.com (takes 1 minute).
Step 2 — Add the Stop hook and MCP server
In ~/.claude/settings.json:
{
"hooks": {
"Stop": [
{
"matcher": "",
"hooks": [{
"type": "command",
"command": "MAGNET_REDIS_URL=your_redis_url MAGNET_OPENAI_KEY=your_openai_key MAGNET_USER_ID=your_name MAGNET_PROJECT_ID=default /path/to/pipx/venvs/agent-magnet/bin/python -m magnet.hooks.save_session",
"timeout": 10
}]
}
]
},
"mcpServers": {
"agent-magnet": {
"command": "agent-magnet-mcp",
"env": {
"MAGNET_REDIS_URL": "your_redis_url",
"MAGNET_OPENAI_KEY": "your_openai_key",
"MAGNET_USER_ID": "your_name",
"MAGNET_PROJECT_ID": "default"
}
}
}
}
To find your pipx Python path: pipx environment | grep PIPX_HOME
Then the full path is: {PIPX_HOME}/venvs/agent-magnet/bin/python
Step 3 — Tell Claude to load memory automatically
Create ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md (global instructions Claude reads at the start of every session):
# Memory
At the start of every conversation, call the `inject_memory` MCP tool (agent-magnet) with:
- user_id: "your_name"
- project_id: "default"
Use the returned memory profile as context for the conversation.
This is the critical step. Without it, memory is saved but never loaded into the conversation.
Step 4 — Restart Claude Code
That's it. From now on:
- Every new conversation starts with your memory profile loaded
- Every closed session is saved automatically
- No manual commands needed
Use the same MAGNET_USER_ID across Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex to share memory between tools.
What you can say during a session
Memory loads automatically at the start, but Claude doesn't always proactively record things mid-session. These phrases work reliably:
| What you want | What to say |
|---|---|
| Load your profile into this conversation | get my data from agent-magnet |
| Save something you just said | record it to agent-magnet |
| Save the whole session now | save this session to my memory |
| Check what Magnet knows about you | what's in my agent-magnet profile |
You don't need exact phrasing — Claude understands intent and will call the right MCP tool. But if it doesn't, these always work.
Cursor Setup
Option A — MCP (automatic load, manual save)
Cursor doesn't support Stop hooks, so sessions must be saved manually.
- Install:
pipx install agent-magnet - Get a free Redis URL at upstash.com
- Add to Cursor MCP config (Settings → MCP):
{
"mcpServers": {
"agent-magnet": {
"command": "agent-magnet-mcp",
"env": {
"MAGNET_REDIS_URL": "your_redis_url",
"MAGNET_OPENAI_KEY": "your_openai_key",
"MAGNET_USER_ID": "your_name",
"MAGNET_PROJECT_ID": "default"
}
}
}
}
- Add to Cursor Rules (Settings → Rules for AI):
At the start of every conversation, call the inject_memory MCP tool (agent-magnet) with user_id="your_name" and project_id="default". Use the result as context.
Important: MCP tools only work in Agent mode. In Ask mode, Cursor blocks tool calls. Switch to Agent mode for memory to load and save correctly.
- At the end of a session, type:
save this session to my memory
Use the same MAGNET_USER_ID as Claude Code — memory is shared across tools.
Option B — Proxy (fully automatic)
- Go to Cursor Settings → Models
- Set "Override OpenAI Base URL" to:
https://magnet-gateway.onrender.com/v1 - Enter your Agent Magnet API key from agentmagnet.app
- Add header:
x-magnet-user-id: your_name
Every request automatically saves and recalls memory. No manual commands, no setup beyond this.
