+
40
+ "Derivative Works" shall mean any work, whether in Source or Object
41
+ form, that is based on (or derived from) the Work and for which the

+ represent, as a whole, an original work of authorship. For the purposes
44
+ of this License, Derivative Works shall not include works that remain

89
+ 4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the

+ attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
103
+ excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
104
+ the Derivative Works; and
105
+
106
+ (d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
107
+ distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must

+
123
+ You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and

+ reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
128
+ the conditions stated in this License.
129
+
130
+ 5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
131
+ any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
132
+ by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
133
+ this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
134
+ Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
135
+ the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
136
+ with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
137
+
138
+ 6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
139
+ names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
140
+ except as required for describing the origin of the Work and
141
+ reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
142
+
143
+ 7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
144
+ agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
145
+ Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
146
+ WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
147
+ implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions

+ of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
149
+ PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
150
+ appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any

+ risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
152
+
153
+ 8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
154
+ whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
155
+ unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
156
+ negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
157
+ liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
158
+ incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
159
+ result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
160
+ Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
161
+ work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
162
+ other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor

+
28
+ Detect, distill, compile. Memory for AI agents.
29
+
30
+ Not a database of past conversations. A system that detects what matters in
31
+ interactions, distills it into typed memories (facts, rules, decisions, context),
32
+ consolidates redundant or contradicted memories as new ones arrive, and compiles
33
+ a behavioral policy the agent injects into its prompt. The library is
34
+ self-contained: SQLite for storage, pydantic-ai for LLM calls.
35
+
36
+ ## Install
37
+
38
+ ```sh
39
+ pip install imprint
40
+ ```
41
+
42
+ Optional extras:
43
+
44
+ ```sh
45
+ pip install imprint[vector] # SQLiteVecStore for dense retrieval
46
+ pip install imprint[voyage] # VoyageEmbedder and VoyageTokenCounter
47
+ pip install imprint[anthropic-tokens] # exact token counting via the Anthropic API
48
+ pip install imprint[online] # FSRSGradientDecay via River
49
+ pip install imprint[all] # everything above
50
+ ```
51
+
52
+ ## Quick example
53
+
54
+ ```python
55
+ from imprint import Imprint
56
+
57
+ imprint = Imprint(
58
+ agent_id="reviewer",
59
+ agent_description="A code reviewer that suggests improvements to pull requests.",
60
+ model="anthropic:claude-haiku-4-5-20251001", # reads ANTHROPIC_API_KEY from env
61
+ store="sqlite:///~/.imprint/reviewer.db",
62
+ processing_mode="balanced", # frugal | balanced | eager
63
+ scopes=["project:alpha", "role:reviewer"], # optional: declared scope set
64
+ )
65
+ await imprint.connect()
66
+
67
+ # After each user turn, hand imprint the agent's last output and the user's reply.
68
+ # Most replies carry no signal and nothing is stored.
69
+ await imprint.observe(
70
+ user_id="rami",
71
+ agent_output="I suggest using bullet points here.",
72
+ user_response="No, write in paragraphs.",
73
+ )
74
+
75
+ # Before each agent turn, compile a behavioral policy for this user.
76
+ # The output is a ready-to-inject text block, filtered to memories that
77
+ # match the requested scopes and deduplicated against existing instructions.
78
+ policy = await imprint.get_policy(
79
+ user_id="rami",
80
+ existing_instructions="You are a helpful code reviewer.",
81
+ scopes=["project:alpha"],
82
+ max_output_tokens=400,
83
+ )
84
+
85
+ print(policy.text)
86
+ # -> "Write feedback in paragraphs rather than bullet points."
87
+ ```
88
+
89
+ Models use [pydantic-ai](https://ai.pydantic.dev) under the hood. Any provider
90
+ string pydantic-ai supports works: `"openai:gpt-4o"`, `"google:gemini-2.5-pro"`,
91
+ `"ollama:llama3"`, etc. For more control pass a `pydantic_ai.models.Model`
92
+ instance directly.
93
+
94
+ ## How it works
95
+
96
+ `observe()` runs four stages in order:
97
+
98
+ 1. **Detection** decides whether the user's response carries a signal worth
99
+ capturing. Pattern heuristics fire first; an LLM call runs as fallback in
100
+ balanced mode or always in eager mode. Most observations stop here at zero
101
+ LLM cost.
102
+ 2. **Derivation** converts the signal into a canonical typed memory: what type
103
+ (FACT, RULE, DECISION, CONTEXT), what content, what scope.
104
+ 3. **Persistence** writes the memory and its supporting signal to SQLite and
105
+ keeps the full-text search index in sync.
106
+ 4. **Consolidation** compares the new memory against existing ones and decides
107
+ for each: merge (redundant), contradict (now wrong), or distinct (keep both).
108
+ Memories marked merged or contradicted are deactivated.
109
+
110
+ `get_policy()` lists the active memories that match the requested scopes, hashes
111
+ the inputs into a cache key, and returns a cached compile if one is available.
112
+ Otherwise it asks the LLM to compile a behavioral policy and caches the result.
113
+ The cache invalidates whenever a new memory is written for that user.
114
+
115
+ When a vector store and embedder are configured, `get_policy()` switches to
116
+ hybrid retrieval: BM25 sparse search over the full-text index fused with dense
117
+ vector search via Reciprocal Rank Fusion. A `BanditAlphaTuner` learns the
118
+ optimal sparse/dense balance per agent from implicit feedback.
119
+
120
+ ## Processing modes
121
+
122
+ - **frugal** - pattern heuristics only; zero LLM cost for observation. Misses
123
+ subtle signals. Good for high-volume or cost-sensitive deployments.
124
+ - **balanced** *(default)* - heuristics first, LLM fallback when silent. One
125
+ LLM call per ambiguous observation.
126
+ - **eager** - always uses the LLM for detection, derivation, and validation.
127
+ Best signal recall, highest cost. Adds a pre-validation pass for
128
+ `observe_directions()` and LLM-based correction attribution in the feedback loop.
129
+
130
+ ## Scopes
131
+
132
+ Scopes let one Imprint instance hold context-specific memories without cross-
133
+ contamination. Declare the candidate set on construction:
134
+
135
+ ```python
136
+ imprint = Imprint(
137
+ agent_id="reviewer",
138
+ scopes=["project:alpha", "project:beta", "role:reviewer"],
139
+ )
140
+ ```
141
+
142
+ A memory is tagged with one scope at write time. The LLM picks from the declared
143
+ set during derivation, or the caller passes `scope=` to `observe()` explicitly.
144
+ Unknown scopes fall back to `"global"`. The `"global"` scope is always available
145
+ and matches every retrieval call.
146
+
147
+ `get_policy(scopes=...)` filters which memories are visible. A memory matches
148
+ when its scope is `"global"` or appears in the requested list. Omitting `scopes`
149
+ returns all memories for that user.
150
+
151
+ ## Injecting directives directly
152
+
153
+ `observe_directions()` persists explicit instructions without the detect stage.
154
+ Useful for onboarding flows, settings screens, or any surface where the user
155
+ explicitly configures how the agent should behave.
156
+
157
+ ```python
158
+ memories = await imprint.observe_directions(
159
+ user_id="rami",
160
+ directions=[
161
+ "Always respond in English.",
162
+ "Never use bullet points.",
163
+ "Keep responses under 200 words.",
164
+ ],
165
+ source=MemorySource.USER_EDIT,
166
+ )
167
+ ```
168
+
169
+ In eager mode a batched LLM validation pre-pass filters out hedges and
170
+ non-directives before any memory is written.
171
+
172
+ ## Feedback loop
173
+
174
+ Imprint tracks an open feedback loop per user session. The loop opens when
175
+ `get_policy()` is called and closes on the next `observe()` or an explicit
176
+ `observe_feedback()` call.
177
+
178
+ ```python
179
+ # Explicit quality signal from the application layer.
180
+ # outcome: -1.0 = clear failure, 0.0 = neutral, 1.0 = clear success.
181
+ await imprint.observe_feedback(user_id="rami", outcome=0.9)
182
+ ```
183
+
184
+ Implicit signals are also extracted automatically: a CORRECTION closes the loop
185
+ with a negative reward, a REINFORCEMENT with a positive one. When an embedder is
186
+ configured, corrections trigger an embedding-based attribution pass that
187
+ identifies which ranked memory was most relevant to the correction and adjusts
188
+ the retrieval alpha accordingly. In eager mode an LLM call makes this attribution
189
+ more precise.
190
+
191
+ Loops expire lazily after `feedback_timeout` seconds (default: 1 hour).
192
+
193
+ ## Extras
194
+
195
+ ### Vector retrieval (`imprint[vector]`)
196
+
197
+ ```python
198
+ from imprint import Imprint, SQLiteVecStore
199
+ from imprint.voyage import VoyageEmbedder
200
+
201
+ imprint = Imprint(
202
+ agent_id="assistant",
203
+ vector_store=SQLiteVecStore("assistant.db"),
204
+ embedder=VoyageEmbedder(), # reads VOYAGE_API_KEY from env
205
+ )
206
+ ```
207
+
208
+ When a vector store and embedder are provided, `observe()` embeds each new
209
+ memory alongside it. `get_policy()` switches to hybrid BM25 + dense retrieval
210
+ when a `context` string is provided.
211
+
212
+ ### Online decay (`imprint[online]`)
213
+
214
+ ```python
215
+ from imprint import Imprint, FSRSGradientDecay
216
+
217
+ imprint = Imprint(
218
+ agent_id="assistant",
219
+ decay_model=FSRSGradientDecay(),
220
+ )
221
+ ```
222
+
223
+ `FSRSGradientDecay` replaces the default static decay formula with a River
224
+ online regression model that learns per-agent decay parameters from feedback
225
+ events. State is persisted to the agent database and survives restarts.
226

252
+ ## Development
253
+
254
+ Requires [uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/) and [just](https://github.com/casey/just).
255
+
256
+ ```sh
257
+ just sync # install all extras into .venv
258
+ just check # lint, format-check, typecheck, test
259
+ just fmt # auto-format
260
+ just test-live # run live tests (require ANTHROPIC_API_KEY)
261
+ just clean # remove caches and local SQLite databases
262
+ ```
263
+
264
+ Live tests are excluded from the default run. They hit the real Anthropic API
265
+ and need a key. Copy `.env.example` to `.env` and fill in the values.
266
+
267
+ ## API stability
268
+
269
+ The public API is shaped but not stable. Breaking changes between 0.x versions
270
+ should be expected. The core observe/get_policy contract is the most stable
271
+ part; adapter protocols and optional extra APIs may shift.
