Engrammic Primitives

The schema library for Engrammic, a structured memory system for AI agents.

Most AI agents treat context like a scratchpad. Engrammic treats it like cognition: observations become claims, claims become facts, facts become beliefs. This library defines the types and rules that make that work.

Library for integrators. If you just want to use Engrammic memory in your agent, see engrammic-mcp for the hosted service or engrammic to self-host.

Install

pip install engrammic-primitives

What's Inside

Schema types for four cognitive layers:

Layer What it holds Example
Memory Raw observations "User mentioned they prefer dark mode"
Knowledge Claims with evidence "User prefers dark mode" (based on 3 mentions)
Wisdom Synthesized beliefs "Optimize for low-light viewing in this user's sessions"
Intelligence Reasoning chains Step-by-step derivation of a conclusion

Scoring functions for promotion decisions:

from primitives.eag import combined_confidence, should_promote_r1

# When should a claim become a fact?
decision = should_promote_r1(confidence=0.8, corroboration_count=3)

Transition predicates for enforcing layer rules (e.g., Knowledge requires evidence).

Protocols for storage backends (implement these to build your own store).

When to Use This

You're building something that stores and retrieves structured agent context, and you want compatibility with the Engrammic ecosystem.

If you just want to use Engrammic:

Modules

Module Purpose
primitives.schema Node and edge type definitions
primitives.eag Confidence, promotion, decay logic
primitives.eag.transitions Layer transition predicates and constraints
primitives.protocols Storage and lifecycle interfaces
primitives.scoring Freshness and relevance formulas
