@supermemory/tools
Memory tools for AI SDK and OpenAI function calling with supermemory.
This package provides supermemory tools for both AI SDK and OpenAI function calling through dedicated submodule exports, each with function-based architectures optimized for their respective use cases.
Installation
npm install @supermemory/tools
bun add @supermemory/tools
pnpm add @supermemory/tools
yarn add @supermemory/tools
Usage
The package provides two submodule imports:
@supermemory/tools/ai-sdk - For use with the AI SDK framework
@supermemory/tools/openai - For use with OpenAI's function calling
AI SDK Usage
import { supermemoryTools, searchMemoriesTool, addMemoryTool } from "@supermemory/tools/ai-sdk"
import { createOpenAI } from "@ai-sdk/openai"
import { generateText } from "ai"
const openai = createOpenAI({
apiKey: process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY!,
})
const tools = supermemoryTools(process.env.SUPERMEMORY_API_KEY!, {
containerTags: ["your-user-id"],
})
const result = await generateText({
model: openai("gpt-5"),
messages: [
{
role: "user",
content: "What do you remember about my preferences?",
},
],
tools,
})
const searchTool = searchMemoriesTool(process.env.SUPERMEMORY_API_KEY!, {
projectId: "your-project-id",
})
const addTool = addMemoryTool(process.env.SUPERMEMORY_API_KEY!, {
projectId: "your-project-id",
})
AI SDK Middleware with Supermemory
withSupermemory will take advantage supermemory profile v4 endpoint personalized based on container tag
- Make sure you have
SUPERMEMORY_API_KEY in env
import { generateText } from "ai"
import { withSupermemory } from "@supermemory/tools/ai-sdk"
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai"
const modelWithMemory = withSupermemory(openai("gpt-5"), "user_id_life")
const result = await generateText({
model: modelWithMemory,
messages: [{ role: "user", content: "where do i live?" }],
})
console.log(result.text)
Conversation Grouping
Use the conversationId option to group messages into a single document for contextual memory generation:
import { generateText } from "ai"
import { withSupermemory } from "@supermemory/tools/ai-sdk"
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai"
const modelWithMemory = withSupermemory(openai("gpt-5"), "user_id_life", {
conversationId: "conversation-456"
})
const result = await generateText({
model: modelWithMemory,
messages: [{ role: "user", content: "where do i live?" }],
})
console.log(result.text)
Verbose Mode
Enable verbose logging to see detailed information about memory search and transformation:
import { generateText } from "ai"
import { withSupermemory } from "@supermemory/tools/ai-sdk"
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai"
const modelWithMemory = withSupermemory(openai("gpt-5"), "user_id_life", {
verbose: true
})
const result = await generateText({
model: modelWithMemory,
messages: [{ role: "user", content: "where do i live?" }],
})
console.log(result.text)
When verbose mode is enabled, you'll see console output like:
[supermemory] Searching memories for container: user_id_life
[supermemory] User message: where do i live?
[supermemory] System prompt exists: false
[supermemory] Found 3 memories
[supermemory] Memory content: You live in San Francisco, California. Your address is 123 Main Street...
[supermemory] Creating new system prompt with memories
Memory Search Modes
The middleware supports different modes for memory retrieval:
Profile Mode (Default) - Retrieves user profile memories without query filtering:
import { generateText } from "ai"
import { withSupermemory } from "@supermemory/tools/ai-sdk"
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai"
const modelWithMemory = withSupermemory(openai("gpt-4"), "user-123")
const modelWithProfile = withSupermemory(openai("gpt-4"), "user-123", {
mode: "profile"
})
const result = await generateText({
model: modelWithMemory,
messages: [{ role: "user", content: "What do you know about me?" }],
})
Query Mode - Searches memories based on the user's message:
import { generateText } from "ai"
import { withSupermemory } from "@supermemory/tools/ai-sdk"
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai"
const modelWithQuery = withSupermemory(openai("gpt-4"), "user-123", {
mode: "query"
})
const result = await generateText({
model: modelWithQuery,
messages: [{ role: "user", content: "What's my favorite programming language?" }],
})
Full Mode - Combines both profile and query results:
import { generateText } from "ai"
import { withSupermemory } from "@supermemory/tools/ai-sdk"
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai"
const modelWithFull = withSupermemory(openai("gpt-4"), "user-123", {
mode: "full"
})
const result = await generateText({
model: modelWithFull,
messages: [{ role: "user", content: "Tell me about my preferences" }],
})
Automatic Memory Capture
The middleware can automatically save user messages as memories:
Always Save Memories - Automatically stores every user message as a memory:
import { generateText } from "ai"
import { withSupermemory } from "@supermemory/tools/ai-sdk"
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai"
const modelWithAutoSave = withSupermemory(openai("gpt-4"), "user-123", {
addMemory: "always"
})
const result = await generateText({
model: modelWithAutoSave,
messages: [{ role: "user", content: "I prefer React with TypeScript for my projects" }],
})
Never Save Memories (Default) - Only retrieves memories without storing new ones:
const modelWithNoSave = withSupermemory(openai("gpt-4"), "user-123")
Combined Options - Use verbose logging with specific modes and memory storage:
const modelWithOptions = withSupermemory(openai("gpt-4"), "user-123", {
mode: "profile",
addMemory: "always",
verbose: true
})
OpenAI Function Calling Usage
import { supermemoryTools, getToolDefinitions, createToolCallExecutor } from "@supermemory/tools/openai"
import OpenAI from "openai"
const client = new OpenAI({
apiKey: process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY!,
})
const toolDefinitions = getToolDefinitions()
const executeToolCall = createToolCallExecutor(process.env.SUPERMEMORY_API_KEY!, {
projectId: "your-project-id",
})
const completion = await client.chat.completions.create({
model: "gpt-5",
messages: [
{
role: "user",
content: "What do you remember about my preferences?",
},
],
tools: toolDefinitions,
})
if (completion.choices[0]?.message.tool_calls) {
for (const toolCall of completion.choices[0].message.tool_calls) {
const result = await executeToolCall(toolCall)
console.log(result)
}
}
const tools = supermemoryTools(process.env.SUPERMEMORY_API_KEY!, {
containerTags: ["your-user-id"],
})
const searchResult = await tools.searchMemories({
informationToGet: "user preferences",
limit: 10,
})
const addResult = await tools.addMemory({
memory: "User prefers dark roast coffee",
})

Installation
npm install @supermemory/tools @anthropic-ai/sdk
Basic Usage
import Anthropic from '@anthropic-ai/sdk'
import { createClaudeMemoryTool } from '@supermemory/tools/claude-memory'
const anthropic = new Anthropic({
apiKey: process.env.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY!,
})
const memoryTool = createClaudeMemoryTool(process.env.SUPERMEMORY_API_KEY!, {
projectId: 'my-app',
})
async function chatWithMemory(userMessage: string) {
const response = await anthropic.beta.messages.create({
model: 'claude-sonnet-4-5',
max_tokens: 2048,
messages: [{ role: 'user', content: userMessage }],
tools: [{ type: 'memory_20250818', name: 'memory' }],
betas: ['context-management-2025-06-27'],
})
const toolResults = []
for (const block of response.content) {
if (block.type === 'tool_use' && block.name === 'memory') {
const toolResult = await memoryTool.handleCommandForToolResult(
block.input,
block.id
)
toolResults.push(toolResult)
}
}
return response
}
const response = await chatWithMemory(
"Remember that I prefer React with TypeScript for my projects"
)
Memory Operations
Claude can perform these memory operations automatically:
view - List memory directory contents or read specific files
create - Create new memory files with content
str_replace - Find and replace text within memory files
insert - Insert text at specific line numbers
delete - Delete memory files
rename - Rename or move memory files
All memory files are stored in supermemory with normalized paths and can be searched and retrieved across conversations.
