> When are we going to build a safe version of this? I built something similar to Clawdbot for my own use, but with a narrower feature set and obviously more focus on security. I'm now evaluating Letta Bot [0], a Clawdbot fork by Letta with a seemingly much saner development philosophy, and will probably migrate my own agent over. For now I would describe this as "safer" rather than "safe," but something to keep an eye on. I was already using Letta's main open source offering [1] for my agent's memory, and I can already highly recommend that.

In Moltbook is the most interesting place on the internet right now
If you're interested in the full schema you can look at the Pydantic models here: https://github.com/letta-ai/letta/blob/main/letta/serialize_... Agent File is intended to support "one thread" agents, ie agents that have an indefinite conversation/event history, even if the underlying in-context message history is limited. That's why there's a distinction between just "messages" and "in-context messages" (a subset of messages).
In Show HN: Agent File (.af) – An open file format for agents
Hey all, MemGPT authors here! Happy to answer any questions about the implementation. If you want to try it out yourself, we have a Discord bot up-and-running on the MemGPT Discord server (https://discord.gg/9GEQrxmVyE) where you can see the memory editing in action - as you chat with the bot, you'll see MemGPT edit its memory to update its profile about you (and itself). Everything's open source, so can also try running MemGPT locally using the code here: https://github.com/cpacker/MemGPT. In the repo we also have a document-focused example where you can chat with MemGPT about the LlamaIndex API docs.
In MemGPT – LLMs with self-editing memory for unbounded context
Hey all, I’m the lead author on this work. Thanks to the OP for posting, and for all the interest and feedback. To clarify a few points: the goal of this work is to investigate the extent to which an LLM can manage memory and different memory hierarchies, applying lessons from operating systems to extend effective context lengths. All of our code is open sourced at https://github.com/cpacker/MemGPT so you can try it out yourselves!
