+# Memory Class
+
+The `Memory` class provides a robust system for managing conversation history and thread-based message storage in Mastra. It enables persistent storage of conversations, semantic search capabilities, and efficient message retrieval. You must configure a storage provider for conversation history, and if you enable semantic recall you will also need to provide a vector store and embedder.
+
+## Usage example
+
+```typescript
+import { Memory } from '@mastra/memory'
+import { Agent } from '@mastra/core/agent'
+
+export const agent = new Agent({
+  name: 'test-agent',
+  instructions: 'You are an agent with memory.',
+  model: 'openai/gpt-5.1',
+  memory: new Memory({
+    options: {
+      workingMemory: {
+        enabled: true,
+      },
+    },
+  }),
+})
+```
+
+> To enable `workingMemory` on an agent, you’ll need a storage provider configured on your main Mastra instance. See [Mastra class](https://mastra.ai/reference/core/mastra-class) for more information.
+
+## Constructor parameters
+
+**storage?:** (`MastraCompositeStore`): Storage implementation for persisting memory data. Defaults to \`new DefaultStorage({ config: { url: "file:memory.db" } })\` if not provided.
+
+**vector?:** (`MastraVector | false`): Vector store for semantic search capabilities. Set to \`false\` to disable vector operations.
+
+**embedder?:** (`EmbeddingModel<string> | EmbeddingModelV2<string>`): Embedder instance for vector embeddings. Required when semantic recall is enabled.
+
+**options?:** (`MemoryConfig`): Memory configuration options.
+
+### Options parameters
+
+**lastMessages?:** (`number | false`): Number of most recent messages to include in context. Set to \`false\` to disable loading conversation history into context. Use \`Number.MAX\_SAFE\_INTEGER\` to retrieve all messages with no limit. To prevent saving new messages, use the \`readOnly\` option instead. (Default: `10`)
+
+**readOnly?:** (`boolean`): When true, prevents memory from saving new messages and provides working memory as read-only context (without the updateWorkingMemory tool). Useful for read-only operations like previews, internal routing agents, or sub agents that should reference but not modify memory. (Default: `false`)
+
+**semanticRecall?:** (`boolean | { topK: number; messageRange: number | { before: number; after: number }; scope?: 'thread' | 'resource' }`): Enable semantic search in message history. Can be a boolean or an object with configuration options. When enabled, requires both vector store and embedder to be configured. Default topK is 4, default messageRange is {before: 1, after: 1}. (Default: `false`)
+
+**workingMemory?:** (`WorkingMemory`): Configuration for working memory feature. Can be \`{ enabled: boolean; template?: string; schema?: ZodObject\<any> | JSONSchema7; scope?: 'thread' | 'resource' }\` or \`{ enabled: boolean }\` to disable. (Default: `{ enabled: false, template: '# User Information\n- **First Name**:\n- **Last Name**:\n...' }`)
+
+**observationalMemory?:** (`boolean | ObservationalMemoryOptions`): Enable Observational Memory for long-context agentic memory. Set to \`true\` for defaults, or pass a config object to customize token budgets, models, and scope. See \[Observational Memory reference]\(/reference/memory/observational-memory) for configuration details. (Default: `false`)
+
+**generateTitle?:** (`boolean | { model: DynamicArgument<MastraLanguageModel>; instructions?: DynamicArgument<string> }`): Controls automatic thread title generation from the user's first message. Can be a boolean or an object with custom model and instructions. (Default: `false`)
+
+## Returns
+
+**memory:** (`Memory`): A new Memory instance with the specified configuration.
+
+## Extended usage example
+
+```typescript
+import { Memory } from '@mastra/memory'
+import { Agent } from '@mastra/core/agent'
+import { LibSQLStore, LibSQLVector } from '@mastra/libsql'
+
+export const agent = new Agent({
+  name: 'test-agent',
+  instructions: 'You are an agent with memory.',
+  model: 'openai/gpt-5.1',
+  memory: new Memory({
+    storage: new LibSQLStore({
+      id: 'test-agent-storage',
+      url: 'file:./working-memory.db',
+    }),
+    vector: new LibSQLVector({
+      id: 'test-agent-vector',
+      url: 'file:./vector-memory.db',
+    }),
+    options: {
+      lastMessages: 10,
+      semanticRecall: {
+        topK: 3,
+        messageRange: 2,
+        scope: 'resource',
+      },
+      workingMemory: {
+        enabled: true,
+      },
+      generateTitle: true,
+    },
+  }),
+})
+```
+
+## PostgreSQL with index configuration
+
+```typescript
+import { Memory } from '@mastra/memory'
+import { Agent } from '@mastra/core/agent'
+import { ModelRouterEmbeddingModel } from '@mastra/core/llm'
+import { PgStore, PgVector } from '@mastra/pg'
+
+export const agent = new Agent({
+  name: 'pg-agent',
+  instructions: 'You are an agent with optimized PostgreSQL memory.',
+  model: 'openai/gpt-5.1',
+  memory: new Memory({
+    storage: new PgStore({
+      id: 'pg-agent-storage',
+      connectionString: process.env.DATABASE_URL,
+    }),
+    vector: new PgVector({
+      id: 'pg-agent-vector',
+      connectionString: process.env.DATABASE_URL,
+    }),
+    embedder: new ModelRouterEmbeddingModel('openai/text-embedding-3-small'),
+    options: {
+      lastMessages: 20,
+      semanticRecall: {
+        topK: 5,
+        messageRange: 3,
+        scope: 'resource',
+        indexConfig: {
+          type: 'hnsw', // Use HNSW for better performance
+          metric: 'dotproduct', // Optimal for OpenAI embeddings
+          m: 16, // Number of bi-directional links
+          efConstruction: 64, // Construction-time candidate list size
+        },
+      },
+      workingMemory: {
+        enabled: true,
+      },
+    },
+  }),
+})
+```
