Redis Agent Memory integration for NVIDIA NeMo Agent Toolkit

Nvidia-NAT-Redis

Redis-backed memory for NVIDIA NeMo Agent Toolkit — production Redis Agent Memory integrations plus direct Redis plugins (the historical nat.plugins.redis stack).

In NAT, long-term recall is usually wired through memory tools such as get_memory and add_memory, which delegate to a MemoryEditor implementation. This package adds Redis-backed options in two families: Redis Agent Memory (AMS over HTTP — richer lifecycle, optional auto-memory workflow) and direct Redis (JSON + vector search or plain KV inside nat.plugins.redis, no AMS).

This repo is the standalone home for integrations that used to ship under packages/nvidia_nat_redis in the NeMo Agent Toolkit monorepo.

Redis Agent Memory (full stack)

1. _type: redis_agent_memory_backend — Redis Agent Memory as a NAT MemoryEditor long-term memory backend.

2. _type: redis_agent_memory_auto_memory — A native Redis Agent Memory wrapper that uses working memory plus memory_prompt hydration on every turn. AMS runs as a separate service; these surfaces talk to it via the agent-memory client.

3. _type: redis_agent_memory_backend — Redis Agent Memory behind NAT’s standard MemoryEditor contract (fits tool-driven long-term memory).

4. _type: redis_agent_memory_auto_memory — A workflow wrapper (not just another editor): working memory, memory_prompt hydration every turn, turn capture, and promotion — the fullest AMS-shaped integration.

Direct Redis (simple in-Redis memory)

Loaded via the nat_redis setuptools entry point (same name as the historical monorepo package):

• _type: redis_memory — Vector search over JSON documents in Redis (RediSearch); requires a workflow embedder and Redis Stack (or Redis with search + JSON support). Implements MemoryEditor-style semantic memory without AMS.
• _type: redis — NAT object store on plain Redis key–value storage (not semantic long-term memory).

	Redis Agent Memory	Direct Redis
Runs	AMS service + Redis	Redis only (your NAT process uses the client)
Best for	Learning-style memory, working memory, AMS filters and APIs	Lightweight Redis-native memory or KV object store
Tradeoff	Operate AMS; HTTP path	Simpler ops for redis / redis_memory; vector path needs embedder + search-capable Redis

Use Redis Agent Memory when you want the Redis Agent Memory feature set. Use redis_memory when you only need a lightweight Redis-native MemoryEditor without AMS.

Python imports (same as NeMo)

Direct Redis support is implemented only under nat.plugins.redis (for example from nat.plugins.redis.redis_editor import RedisEditor), matching NeMo Agent Toolkit. The setuptools entry point nat_redis loads nat.plugins.redis.register. Redis Agent Memory code lives under nvidia_nat_redis.redis_agent_memory.

Install

pip install nemo-agent-toolkit-redis

For local development in this repo:

git clone https://github.com/redis-developer/nvidia-nat-redis.git
cd nvidia-nat-redis
uv sync --group dev --extra test

Choose A Surface

• Use _type: redis_agent_memory_backend when your workflow already uses NAT memory tools and you want Redis Agent Memory behind the standard MemoryEditor contract.
• Use _type: redis_agent_memory_auto_memory when you want Redis Agent Memory to own working-memory continuity, prompt hydration, and turn capture on every request. This exposes the richness of Redis Agent Memory in its fullest form.
• Use _type: redis_memory when you want the simpler direct-Redis memory from NeMo Agent Toolkit (Redis JSON + vector index, no Redis Agent Memory). You must configure an embedder reference and run a Redis deployment that supports the search commands used by the plugin.
• Use _type: redis when you need NAT’s Redis-backed object store (KV), not vector or AMS-backed semantic memory.

Integration Modes

These examples cover the two Redis Agent Memory integration shapes (MemoryEditor backend vs workflow wrapper). For redis_memory / redis, see Configuration reference.

Direct Long-Term Memory Backend

Use _type: redis_agent_memory_backend when you want Redis Agent Memory behind NAT's generic memory tools such as get_memory and add_memory.

memory:
  redis_memory:
    _type: redis_agent_memory_backend
    base_url: http://localhost:8000
    default_namespace: nat

Native Redis Agent Memory Wrapper

Use _type: redis_agent_memory_auto_memory when you want:

• working-memory continuity by conversation_id
• automatic memory_prompt hydration
• completed turns appended back into Redis Agent Memory
• background promotion into long-term memory

workflow:
  _type: redis_agent_memory_auto_memory
  inner_agent_name: assistant_chat
  memory_name: redis_memory

  memory_prompt:
    optimize_query: false
    long_term_search:
      limit: 5

  working_memory:
    namespace: nat
    ttl_seconds: 86400
    long_term_memory_strategy:
      strategy: discrete

The wrapper resolves runtime identity from NAT context:

• user_id -> Redis Agent Memory user_id
• conversation_id -> Redis Agent Memory session_id

Examples

• Agent auto-memory example
• Tool-based long-term memory example

Both example directories are self-contained. Each includes a .env.example, localhost-bound Docker Compose services, a NAT config, a runner, and a short README.

Configuration

• Configuration reference
• Redis Agent Memory quick start

Development

make setup
make lint
make test
make validate
make build
make check

Integration tests are opt-in because they start real Redis and Agent Memory Server containers:

make test-integration

The example Compose files are intended for local development. They bind Redis and AMS to 127.0.0.1 and run AMS with auth disabled.
