Ishaan Gupta 0e604c8384 fix(livekit): keep memory scoped to the caller and bound capture writes
From review of 5b2a435e:

- Captured turns now keep the container tag and document id they were
  spoken under. Rebinding the instance used to flush earlier turns into
  the new caller's scope. Turns captured before any bind still go to the
  first caller bound.
- Recall strips earlier injected memory before it runs, so a failed or
  empty recall can no longer leave another caller's memory in context.
  For the same caller, a slow or failed recall falls back to the profile
  loaded by preload.
- The recall cache is keyed on the user message, not its text, so a
  later turn with the same words recalls again.
- Capture writes time out after 10s and keep their turns for retry,
  including on cancellation. Large calls are written in chunks of at
  most 100k characters, and the buffer is capped.
- remember falls back to the default processing schedule when the
  organization has no balance for instant processing (HTTP 402).
- Docs state the measured delays: about a minute for remember, 10 to 20
  minutes for captured calls on the default dynamic schedule.

Supermemory LiveKit SDK

Persistent memory for LiveKit Agents voice sessions, powered by Supermemory.

The plugin recalls the caller's profile and relevant memories before each reply, stores the call as one conversation, and gives the model tools to search, remember, and forget. A Supermemory outage does not end the call.

Installation

pip install supermemory-livekit
export SUPERMEMORY_API_KEY=your_supermemory_api_key

Create a key at console.supermemory.ai.

Quick start

Scope memory with a stable caller id. A LiveKit participant identity works when it is already a container tag (letters, numbers, _, -, :). Otherwise set the participant attribute supermemory_container_tag.

import json
import os

from livekit import agents
from livekit.agents import AgentServer, AgentSession, ChatContext, JobContext
from supermemory_livekit import SupermemoryAgent, SupermemoryLiveKit

server = AgentServer()


@server.rtc_session(agent_name="memory-agent")
async def entrypoint(ctx: JobContext):
    memory = SupermemoryLiveKit(api_key=os.getenv("SUPERMEMORY_API_KEY"))
    metadata = json.loads(ctx.job.metadata or "{}")
    container_tag = metadata.get("container_tag")
    if container_tag:
        memory.bind(container_tag=container_tag, session_id=ctx.room.name)

    chat_ctx = ChatContext()
    if container_tag:
        await memory.preload(chat_ctx)

    await ctx.connect()
    if not container_tag:
        participant = await ctx.wait_for_participant()
        memory.bind(participant=participant, session_id=ctx.room.name)

    session = AgentSession(
        stt="deepgram/nova-3:en",
        llm="openai/gpt-4.1-mini",
        tts="cartesia/sonic-3",
    )
    memory.attach(session)
    await session.start(
        room=ctx.room,
        agent=SupermemoryAgent(
            memory,
            chat_ctx=chat_ctx,
            instructions=(
                "You are a helpful voice assistant. You remember this caller across calls. "
                "Use that naturally, and do not mention the memory system."
            ),
        ),
    )


if __name__ == "__main__":
    agents.cli.run_app(server)

A runnable version with a greeting that uses memory is in examples/.

If you already have an Agent subclass, pass tools=memory.tools() and recall from llm_node:

async def llm_node(self, chat_ctx, tools, model_settings):
    await memory.enrich(chat_ctx)
    return Agent.default.llm_node(self, chat_ctx, tools, model_settings)

Recall in llm_node, not on_user_turn_completed: changing the turn context in that hook makes LiveKit discard its preemptive generation. Realtime models skip llm_node, so with one call await memory.on_user_turn_completed(turn_ctx, new_message) from on_user_turn_completed. SupermemoryAgent picks the right hook for you. Call capture listens to conversation_item_added.

Configuration

from supermemory_livekit import InputParams, SupermemoryLiveKit

memory = SupermemoryLiveKit(
    container_tag="user_123",
    session_id="room-123",
    params=InputParams(
        mode="full",            # "profile" | "query" | "full"
        search_limit=10,
        search_threshold=0.1,
        recall_timeout=2.0,     # seconds; a slow recall falls back to the preloaded profile
        capture="always",       # "always" | "never"
        capture_dreaming="dynamic",  # see "When a call becomes recallable" below
    ),
)
Mode Profile Search Use when
profile Yes No You only need durable facts
query No Yes You only need memories related to this turn
full Yes Yes Default

One call is stored as a single document under custom id lk-<session_id>, so a reconnect with the same session id updates that document instead of creating another. Explicit remember calls are separate facts, processed immediately (usually recallable within a minute), and are not tied to the call document.

When a call becomes recallable

With the default capture_dreaming="dynamic", a captured call took 10 to 20 minutes to become memories in our tests, so a caller who rings back right away is not recalled from the last call yet. capture_dreaming="instant" is usually ready within a minute but bills one extra operation per write, and the call is written after every agent reply. In both modes search_memories finds the raw call text as soon as it is stored.
