- Dedicated asyncio event loop for Hindsight async calls (fixes aiohttp session leaks) - Client caching (reuse instead of creating per-call) - Local mode daemon management with config change detection and auto-restart - Memory mode support (hybrid/context/tools) and prefetch method (recall/reflect) - Proper shutdown with event loop and client cleanup - Disable HindsightEmbedded.__del__ to avoid GC loop errors - Update API URLs (app -> ui.hindsight.vectorize.io, api_url -> base_url) - Setup wizard: conditional fields (when clause), dynamic defaults (default_from) - Switch dependency install from pip to uv (correct for uv-based venvs) - Add hindsight-all to plugin.yaml and import mapping - 12 new tests for dispatch routing and setup field filtering Original PR #5044 by cdbartholomew.

# Hindsight Memory Provider
|
|
|
|
Long-term memory with knowledge graph, entity resolution, and multi-strategy retrieval. Supports cloud and local (embedded) modes.
|
|
|
|
## Requirements
|
|
|
|
- **Cloud:** API key from [ui.hindsight.vectorize.io](https://ui.hindsight.vectorize.io)
|
|
- **Local:** API key for a supported LLM provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Groq, MiniMax, or Ollama). Embeddings and reranking run locally — no additional API keys needed.
|
|
|
|
## Setup
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
hermes memory setup # select "hindsight"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The setup wizard will install dependencies automatically via `uv` and walk you through configuration.
|
|
|
|
Or manually (cloud mode with defaults):
|
|
```bash
|
|
hermes config set memory.provider hindsight
|
|
echo "HINDSIGHT_API_KEY=your-key" >> ~/.hermes/.env
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Cloud Mode
|
|
|
|
Connects to the Hindsight Cloud API. Requires an API key from [ui.hindsight.vectorize.io](https://ui.hindsight.vectorize.io).
|
|
|
|
### Local Mode
|
|
|
|
Runs an embedded Hindsight server with built-in PostgreSQL. Requires an LLM API key (e.g. Groq, OpenAI, Anthropic) for memory extraction and synthesis. The daemon starts automatically in the background on first use and stops after 5 minutes of inactivity.
|
|
|
|
Daemon startup logs: `~/.hermes/logs/hindsight-embed.log`
|
|
Daemon runtime logs: `~/.hindsight/profiles/<profile>.log`
|
|
|
|
## Config
|
|
|
|
Config file: `~/.hermes/hindsight/config.json`
|
|
|
|
### Connection
|
|
|
|
| Key | Default | Description |
|
|
|-----|---------|-------------|
|
|
| `mode` | `cloud` | `cloud` or `local` |
|
|
| `api_url` | `https://api.hindsight.vectorize.io` | API URL (cloud mode) |
|
|
| `api_url` | `http://localhost:8888` | API URL (local mode, unused — daemon manages its own port) |
|
|
|
|
### Memory
|
|
|
|
| Key | Default | Description |
|
|
|-----|---------|-------------|
|
|
| `bank_id` | `hermes` | Memory bank name |
|
|
| `budget` | `mid` | Recall thoroughness: `low` / `mid` / `high` |
|
|
|
|
### Integration
|
|
|
|
| Key | Default | Description |
|
|
|-----|---------|-------------|
|
|
| `memory_mode` | `hybrid` | How memories are integrated into the agent |
|
|
| `prefetch_method` | `recall` | Method for automatic context injection |
|
|
|
|
**memory_mode:**
|
|
- `hybrid` — automatic context injection + tools available to the LLM
|
|
- `context` — automatic injection only, no tools exposed
|
|
- `tools` — tools only, no automatic injection
|
|
|
|
**prefetch_method:**
|
|
- `recall` — injects raw memory facts (fast)
|
|
- `reflect` — injects LLM-synthesized summary (slower, more coherent)
|
|
|
|
### Local Mode LLM
|
|
|
|
| Key | Default | Description |
|
|
|-----|---------|-------------|
|
|
| `llm_provider` | `openai` | LLM provider: `openai`, `anthropic`, `gemini`, `groq`, `minimax`, `ollama` |
|
|
| `llm_model` | per-provider | Model name (e.g. `gpt-4o-mini`, `openai/gpt-oss-120b`) |
|
|
|
|
The LLM API key is stored in `~/.hermes/.env` as `HINDSIGHT_LLM_API_KEY`.
|
|
|
|
## Tools
|
|
|
|
Available in `hybrid` and `tools` memory modes:
|
|
|
|
| Tool | Description |
|
|
|------|-------------|
|
|
| `hindsight_retain` | Store information with auto entity extraction |
|
|
| `hindsight_recall` | Multi-strategy search (semantic + entity graph) |
|
|
| `hindsight_reflect` | Cross-memory synthesis (LLM-powered) |
|
|
|
|
## Environment Variables
|
|
|
|
| Variable | Description |
|
|
|----------|-------------|
|
|
| `HINDSIGHT_API_KEY` | API key for Hindsight Cloud |
|
|
| `HINDSIGHT_LLM_API_KEY` | LLM API key for local mode |
