Implementation Reference
- src/memory-manager.js:20-90 (handler)The core handler function in MemoryManager class that executes the create_memory tool logic: inserts memory into main table and type-specific table within a transaction.async createMemory(type, content, embedding, importance = 0.0, metadata = {}) { try { // Start transaction const result = await this.db.transaction(async (tx) => { // Insert main memory record const [memory] = await tx.insert(schema.memories).values({ type, content, embedding: embedding, importance, decayRate: metadata.decayRate || 0.01 }).returning(); // Insert type-specific details switch (type) { case 'episodic': await tx.insert(schema.episodicMemories).values({ memoryId: memory.id, actionTaken: metadata.action_taken || null, context: metadata.context || null, result: metadata.result || null, emotionalValence: metadata.emotional_valence || 0.0, eventTime: metadata.event_time || new Date(), verificationStatus: metadata.verification_status || null }); break; case 'semantic': await tx.insert(schema.semanticMemories).values({ memoryId: memory.id, confidence: metadata.confidence || 0.8, category: metadata.category || [], relatedConcepts: metadata.related_concepts || [], sourceReferences: metadata.source_references || null, contradictions: metadata.contradictions || null }); break; case 'procedural': await tx.insert(schema.proceduralMemories).values({ memoryId: memory.id, steps: metadata.steps || {}, prerequisites: metadata.prerequisites || {}, successCount: metadata.success_count || 0, totalAttempts: metadata.total_attempts || 0, failurePoints: metadata.failure_points || null }); break; case 'strategic': await tx.insert(schema.strategicMemories).values({ memoryId: memory.id, patternDescription: metadata.pattern_description || content, confidenceScore: metadata.confidence_score || 0.7, supportingEvidence: metadata.supporting_evidence || null, successMetrics: metadata.success_metrics || null, adaptationHistory: metadata.adaptation_history || null, contextApplicability: metadata.context_applicability || null }); break; } return memory; }); return result; } catch (error) { console.error('Error creating memory:', error); throw error; } }
