What is AMP?

AMP (Agent Memory Protocol) is an open - source agent memory protocol specifically designed to solve the 'forgetfulness' problem of AI agents. Different from traditional RAG (Retrieval - Augmented Generation), AMP not only stores information but also simulates the short - term and long - term memory mechanisms of the human brain, allowing AI to remember past conversations, decisions, and experiences like humans.

How to use AMP?

AMP can be installed via simple command - line operations and run as an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server. After installation, you can integrate it into tools such as Claude Desktop, Cursor, and VS Code Copilot, enabling your AI assistant to have persistent memory capabilities.

Applicable scenarios

AMP is particularly suitable for scenarios that require long - term context memory, such as: 1. Development assistant: Remember project history, technical decisions, and bug - fixing processes. 2. Research assistant: Track research progress and the evolution of ideas. 3. Personal assistant: Remember user preferences, habits, and past conversations. 4. Team collaboration: Multiple AI agents share memory and knowledge.

Main features

Galaxy view visualization
Provides a real - time 3D visualization interface, presenting the relationships between memories in the form of a constellation map. Related memories are automatically clustered, allowing you to intuitively see the AI's knowledge structure.
Physical force field mode
Switch to the force field mode, using the D3.js physical engine to display the topological connections between memory nodes, revealing how different memory clusters are related to each other through shared context.
Semantic search
Use natural language to query memories without guessing keywords. The system will display a relevance score (0 - 100%), allowing you to understand why a specific memory is retrieved.
Native MCP support
Designed specifically for the Model Context Protocol, it can be easily integrated into MCP - supported tools such as Claude Desktop, Cursor, and VS Code Copilot.
Three - layer brain architecture
1. Short - term memory: A high - fidelity buffer that stores the current conversation context. 2. Long - term memory: Integrated insights and knowledge. 3. Graph network: Connection relationships between entities.
Advantages
Excellent memory recall ability: Achieves an accuracy of 81.6% in the LoCoMo benchmark test, far exceeding competitors.
Context - first design: Preserves the complete narrative and context, avoiding information loss.
Intuitive visualization interface: Allows users to 'see' the AI's memory structure.
Easy to integrate: Supports mainstream AI development tools and IDEs.
Open - source and free: Under the MIT license, it can be freely used and modified.
Limitations
Currently only supports local deployment, and cloud synchronization functionality is under development.
Requires certain technical knowledge for initial configuration.
The visualization interface requires a modern browser to support.
Multi - agent collaboration functionality is still under development.

How to use

Install AMP
Install the AMP memory system using the uv tool or pip.
Start the server
Run the AMP server, which starts at localhost:8000 by default.
Access the dashboard
Open http://localhost:8000 in your browser to view the galaxy view or switch to the force field mode.
Configure the MCP client
Add AMP to your MCP configuration file for use in supported clients.

Usage examples

Software development assistant
Let the AI remember technical decisions and the refactoring process when refactoring code.
Bug tracking
Record the bug - fixing process and solutions.
Research progress tracking
Track the evolution of ideas and key findings in research projects.
