Changelog

All notable changes to Remind.

[0.12.5] - 2026-08-05

Fixed

  • CLI storage maintenance commands — Restored deleted-item listing, episode lookup for soft-deleted records, and permanent concept and episode purging by aligning the CLI, interface, and SQLAlchemy store APIs.
  • CLI JSON backupsremind export now writes the current interface payload to its requested file and remind import reads that file before importing it.
  • Purge without vector tables — Permanent deletion no longer fails when sqlite-vec is available but an embedding index has not yet been initialized.

[0.12.4] - 2026-07-04

Fixed

  • Entity parsing in JSON apply format — Comma-separated entity IDs are now correctly split in both the string and list cases, matching the behaviour of the compact line format.

[0.12.3] - 2026-07-04

Added

  • Capture decision tree in remind-capture skill — New "Should I capture this?" section with a visual decision tree and examples of what to skip, making it easier for agents to decide when to write memories.
  • Entity type reference guide in remind-capture skill — Table of all entity types with examples and naming guidelines.
  • Recall output interpretation guide in remind-context skill — New "Understanding recall output" section explaining similarity scores, concept type badges, and what to do when OPEN CONFLICTS appear.
  • Actionable collision output in remember — CLI and MCP tools now append ready-to-paste apply commands when collisions are detected (supersede for same-cluster collisions, conflict for high-similarity nearby episodes).
  • Browse snapshot scopes — Seven new scopes: concepts[:<n>], episodes[:<n>], entities[:<type>], topics, decisions[:<n>], questions[:<n>]. Returns JSON for agent workflows.
  • health snapshot scope — Returns actionable memory issues: pending episode count, open conflict count, orphan concepts, and stale concepts.
  • Updated remind-curate skill — Curation loop now starts with remind snapshot pending conflicts health.

Changed

  • README — Fully updated to reflect post-0.11 architecture: apply ops table, snapshot scopes table, and updated key features.

[0.12.2] - 2026-07-04

Added

  • Nearest-neighbor surfacing on remember()RememberResult now includes nearby_episodes and nearby_concepts for agent conflict triage. Configurable via remember_nearby_k (default 5; set to 0 to disable).

Fixed

  • remind apply transaction crash — Fixed closed-transaction errors when batch apply initializes vector dimensions or upserts entities and mentions.

Changed

  • Web UI — Removed the Conflicts sidebar nav item and open-count badge.

[0.12.1] - 2026-07-03

Added

  • Cross-cluster related facts on remember()RememberResult now includes related_facts: active facts in other clusters that share a subject name (type prefix stripped) or have high embedding similarity (≥ 0.6). The MCP remember tool renders these as a "Related facts — check for conflicts" block for immediate agent triage.

Changed

  • New config knobs: fact_related_similarity_threshold (default 0.6) and fact_related_max_results (default 10).

[0.12.0] - 2026-07-03

Added

  • Fact embeddings — Facts now have vector embeddings for semantic collision detection. Collisions are detected via both entity overlap AND embedding similarity.

  • Evidence-based episode links — Episodes link to concepts with typed relationships (supports, contradicts, exemplifies, qualifies, supersedes). New apply operations: evidence and unlink.

  • Freeform concept types — Concepts can have any type string. Well-known types: fact, pattern, rule, procedure, hypothesis.

  • Concept evolution operationsreshape, merge, split for evolving concepts as living documents.

Changed

  • Collision detection combines Jaccard + embedding similarity — Facts sharing entities OR with similar embeddings are flagged.

  • Evidence-weighted retrieval — Concepts with more supporting evidence rank higher; contradicting evidence reduces activation.

  • ConceptType enum deprecated — Use CONCEPT_TYPE_* constants instead.

[0.11.5] - 2026-07-03

Fixed

  • remind apply link crash — Fixed missing add_relation method when creating concept relations via the link operation.
  • remind topics list crash — Fixed TypeError: 'Topic' object is not subscriptable when listing topics.
  • remind update-concept crash — The method now accepts confidence, tags, and relations parameters.
  • remind purge-concept crash — The get_concept method now supports the include_deleted parameter.
  • remind status crash — Added missing consolidation and ingest worker status check functions.
  • Missing RELATED_TO relation type — Added related_to to the RelationType enum as the default generic relationship type.
  • REST API topics endpoint crash — Fixed 'dict' object has no attribute 'to_dict' error on /api/v1/topics.

[0.11.4] - 2026-07-03

Added

  • entity_relation apply operation — Create relationships between entities using entity_relation source=X target=Y relation=Z. Builds the entity graph visible in the web UI.

Documentation

  • Updated remind-capture and remind-curate skills to document entity relationships.

[0.11.3] - 2026-07-03

Fixed

  • Web UI Topics crash — Fixed Object of type Topic is not JSON serializable error on the dashboard.
  • snapshot query: crash — Fixed AttributeError when using semantic search scope.

[0.11.2] - 2026-07-03

Fixed

  • recall --topic crash — Fixed AttributeError when looking up topics by display name.

[0.11.1] - 2026-07-03

Fixed

  • remind apply crash — Fixed AttributeError that blocked all batch changesets.
  • CLI hangs in non-interactive mode — Commands with confirmation prompts now detect non-TTY stdin and exit with a clear error. Use -y/--yes for automation.

[0.11.0] - 2026-07-03

BREAKING CHANGES

This release fundamentally changes how Remind works. All internal LLM usage has been removed. The calling agent is now the only intelligence — Remind is a deterministic memory substrate that you curate explicitly.

Migration required:

  • Remove any consolidate, ingest, flush-ingest, end-session commands from scripts
  • Remove --llm flags from CLI invocations
  • Update any code that called memory.consolidate(), memory.ingest(), etc.
  • Run remind re-embed --all if switching from OpenAI to local embeddings (dimensions change from 1536 to 384)

Added

  • Local embedding provider (default)LocalEmbedding using fastembed (ONNX-based, no API key). Zero-config default.
  • remind snapshot — Batch read tool returning a single JSON document. Scopes: pending, conflicts, entity:<id>, topic:<id>, concept:<id>, recent:<n>, stats, query:<text>.
  • remind apply — Batch write tool for transactional memory curation. Operations: remember, supersede, conflict, resolve, dismiss, concept, update, link, topic, set_topic, delete, restore, processed. Local refs, JSON and compact line format.
  • Deterministic fact pipelineremember() with type=fact creates Fact rows using Jaccard similarity for cluster assignment. Collisions returned in RememberResult for agent disposition.
  • Transaction supportstore.transaction() context manager for atomic operations.
  • Episode provenanceasserted_by and source_ref on episodes. Shown in recall output and web UI.
  • First-class temporal factsFact model with validity windows, supersession, provenance.
  • Time-travel recall (as_of) — Show facts valid at a past point in time.
  • Conflict lifecycleConflict model with openresolved/dismissed lifecycle.
  • Conflicts inbox in web UI — New view with open-count badge.
  • Rewritten agent skillsremind-capture, remind-context, remind-curate for snapshot/apply workflow.

Changed

  • embedding_provider default is now "local" — No API key required.
  • remember() returns RememberResult — Contains episode_id, and for facts: collision info.
  • create_memory() no longer accepts llm_provider — Only embedding providers supported.
  • Dashboard card renamed — "Consolidation Status" → "Pending Review".

Removed

  • All LLM providersAnthropicLLM, OpenAILLM, AzureOpenAILLM, OllamaLLM removed.
  • Consolidationmemory.consolidate(), CLI remind consolidate, MCP consolidate tool.
  • Ingestionmemory.ingest(), memory.flush_ingest(), CLI commands, MCP tools.
  • Transcript captureremind ingest-transcript, remind hook-install.
  • Entity extractionextraction.py removed. Entities must be specified explicitly.
  • Chat endpointPOST /api/v1/chat removed.
