Lindy AI Memory
https://docs.lindy.ai/teammate/memory
Memory is a file explorer for what Lindy knows: files it creates or uses, files users upload, skills (.skills/ folders with SKILL.md) and durable knowledge in a .memory/ area. Scoped Personal (owner only), Team (admins edit, members read-only) and System (read-only); every save is versioned and restorable.

When to use
Optimised for: selective high-signal memory injection
Anti-fit: not for code-first developers
Pros & cons
Pros
Lifelong-agent positioning — memory isn't a feature but the product premise; most opinionated about memory of any framework.
Cons
Closed ecosystem; lock-in risk is highest of the framework-embedded options.
Claims & capabilities
A background memory agent rebuilds each user's and team's memory files every 12 hours from Slack, Gmail, meetings and Lindy tasks, keeping episodic, procedural and semantic memories; an index file and master memory file are always in context (Lindy engineering blog, 2026-08-16).

Other framework-embedded memory in the catalog, ranked by inbound references.
- Spring AI ChatMemory T3
Wraps conversation memory behind an Advisor abstraction. MessageWindowChatMemory default 20-msg sliding window (preserves system messages); pluggable ChatMemoryRepository backends (in-memory, JDBC, Cassandra, Neo4j). Memory injected as cross-cutting concern at the ChatClient level.
- Flowise Memory T1
Discontinued: Flowise (acquired by Workday, Aug 2025) was sunset in 2026 — code freeze 2026-07-29, GitHub repo archived 2026-08-13, end of life 2026-08-31. Was a visual LangChain canvas with LangChain-native memory nodes (Buffer, Buffer Window, Conversation Summary Buffer) backed by an internal chat_message DB table; Buffer Window kept the last K interactions, Summary Buffer compressed older turns while keeping recent ones verbatim.
- LangGraph Persistence T2
Distinct from LangMem. Built-in checkpointer saves graph state per super-step (short-term, thread-scoped). Store System adds long-term hierarchical key-value memory across threads with optional vector search + TTL. Postgres / Mongo / Redis stores for production.
- AutoGen Memory T2
AutoGen's memory layer: ListMemory chronological context plus teachable agents that vectorise corrections; integrates with Mem0/Zep rather than building deep memory natively. Microsoft AutoGen is in maintenance mode (community managed, bug and security fixes only), and Microsoft points new projects to Microsoft Agent Framework.
- CrewAI Memory T2
Memory subsystem inside the CrewAI orchestration framework; integrates with Mem0 for the long-term tier.
- Hermes Agent memory (Nous Research) T3
Nous Research's open-source self-improving agent keeps an agent-curated MEMORY.md/USER.md notebook injected at session start, full-text (FTS5) search over past sessions that returns raw messages without LLM summarisation, and optional Honcho user modelling. one of the most-starred agent projects of 2026.
