Beta v1.3.0

[nullure]

Changelog

api simplification

• python sdk: simplified to zero-config Memory() api matching javascript
  • from openmemory.client import Memory → mem = Memory()
  • works out of the box with sensible defaults (in-memory sqlite, fast tier, synthetic embeddings)
  • optional configuration via environment variables or constructor
  • breaking change: moved from OpenMemory class to Memory class

benchmark suite rewrite

• implemented comprehensive benchmark suite in temp/benchmarks/
  • typescript-based using tsx for execution
  • supports longmemeval dataset evaluation
  • multi-backend comparison (openmemory, mem0, zep, supermemory)
• created src/main.ts consolidated benchmark runner
  • environment validation
  • backend instantiation checks
  • sequential benchmark execution with detailed logging

✨ features

core improvements

• Memory.wipe(): added database wipe functionality for testing

  • clear_all implementation in db.ts for postgres and sqlite
  • clears memories, vectors, waypoints, and users tables
  • useful for benchmark isolation and test cleanup

• environment variable overrides:

  • OM_OLLAMA_MODEL: override ollama embedding model
  • OM_OPENAI_MODEL: override openai embedding model
  • OM_VEC_DIM: configure vector dimension (critical for embedding compatibility)
  • OM_DB_PATH: sqlite database path (supports :memory:)

vector store enhancements

• added comprehensive logging to PostgresVectorStore
  • logs vector storage operations with id, sector, dimension
  • logs search operations with sector and result count
  • aids in debugging retrieval issues

🐛 bug fixes

• embedding configuration:

  • fixed models.ts to respect OM_OLLAMA_MODEL environment variable
  • resolved dimension mismatch issues (768 vs 1536) for embeddinggemma
  • ensured OM_TIER=deep uses semantic embeddings (not synthetic fallback)

• benchmark data isolation:

  • implemented proper database reset between benchmark runs
  • fixed simhash collision issues causing cross-user contamination
  • added resetUser() functionality calling Memory.wipe()

• configuration loading:

  • fixed dotenv timing issues in benchmark suite
  • ensured environment variables load before openmemory-js initialization
  • corrected dataset path resolution (longmemeval_s.json)

📚 documentation

• comprehensive readme updates:

  • root README.md: language-agnostic, showcases both python & javascript sdks
  • packages/openmemory-js/README.md: complete api reference, mcp integration, examples
  • packages/openmemory-py/README.md: zero-config usage, all embedding providers

• api documentation:

  • environment variables with descriptions
  • cognitive sectors explanation
  • performance tiers breakdown
  • embedding provider configurations

🔧 internal improvements

• type safety: added lint error handling in benchmark adapters
• code organization: separated generator, judge, and backend interfaces
• debug tooling: created dimension check script (check_dim.ts)
• logging standardization: consistent [Component] prefix pattern

⚠️ breaking changes

• python sdk now uses from openmemory.client import Memory instead of from openmemory import OpenMemory
• Memory() constructor signature changed to accept optional parameters (was required)
• benchmark suite moved to typescript (was python)
