The `memory_stores` commands of Sylphx Agents, as the CLI spells them: the same
calls as [the `memory_stores` API page](/docs/api/memory_stores), typed for the
shell. [Install, sign in and the grammar](/docs/cli) are on the CLI index.

**Not available yet.** Sylphx Agents is declared in the registry but no backend serves it: every command answers `501` with the problem code `UNIMPLEMENTED`.

## get

Gets a memory store.

**`NAME`** — the resource's name; a bare id is enough below the linked
project.

**CLI**

```bash
sylphx agents memory-stores get orgs/acme/projects/shop/envs/production/memory_stores/memory-store
```

`GET https://api.sylphx.com/v1/orgs/acme/projects/shop/envs/production/memory_stores/memory-store` · scope `agents:read` · effect `read` · [Request, response and examples](/docs/api/memory_stores/get)

## list

Lists memory stores.

**`PARENT`** — optional: the CLI fills it from the linked project or the
key's scope when it is left out.

**CLI**

```bash
sylphx agents memory-stores list orgs/acme/projects/shop/envs/production
```

`GET https://api.sylphx.com/v1/orgs/acme/projects/shop/envs/production/memory_stores` · scope `agents:read` · effect `read` · [Request, response and examples](/docs/api/memory_stores/list)

**Flags**

| Flag | Type | What it does |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `--page-size` | `int` | At most this many; default 50, clamped to 1000. |
| `--page-token` | `string` | `next_page_token` of the previous page. |
| `--filter` | `string` | AIP-160 filter over labels and filterable fields. |
| `--order-by` | `string` | AIP-132 ordering over filterable fields. |

## create

Creates a memory store.

**`ID`** — The id segment of the new Resource's name; the server assigns one when omitted.

**CLI**

```bash
sylphx agents memory-stores create --parent orgs/acme/projects/shop/envs/production --spec.scope project
```

`POST https://api.sylphx.com/v1/orgs/acme/projects/shop/envs/production/memory_stores` · scope `agents:write` · effect `write` · [Request, response and examples](/docs/api/memory_stores/create)

**Flags**

| Flag | Type | What it does |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `--parent` | `string` | The parent to create in; defaults to the linked project or the key's scope. |
| `--meta.labels` | `key=value` | Caller-writable, indexed labels (AIP-122 label rules). Repeat the flag for each value. |
| `--meta.annotations` | `key=value` | Caller-writable, unindexed annotations. Repeat the flag for each value. |
| `--meta.display-name` | `string` | Caller-writable human-readable name. |
| `--spec.description` | `string` | What the store is for, shown to agents; at most 1024 characters. |
| `--spec.scope` | `enum` | Whose memories are kept apart. Required. One of `project`, `agent`, `end_user`. |
| `--spec.retention` | `duration` | Memories older than this since their last update are deleted, 1d to 3650d; unset keeps them until deleted. |
| `--spec.agent-writes` | `bool` | Whether agents write memories themselves after each turn; otherwise only callers write them. |
| `--dry-run` | `bool` | Validate and print the result without writing (validate_only). |

## update

Updates a memory store.

**`NAME`** — the resource's name; a bare id is enough below the linked
project.

**CLI**

```bash
sylphx agents memory-stores update orgs/acme/projects/shop/envs/production/memory_stores/memory-store --spec.scope project
```

`PATCH https://api.sylphx.com/v1/orgs/acme/projects/shop/envs/production/memory_stores/memory-store` · scope `agents:write` · effect `write` · [Request, response and examples](/docs/api/memory_stores/update)

**Flags**

| Flag | Type | What it does |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `--meta.labels` | `key=value` | Caller-writable, indexed labels (AIP-122 label rules). Repeat the flag for each value. |
| `--meta.annotations` | `key=value` | Caller-writable, unindexed annotations. Repeat the flag for each value. |
| `--meta.display-name` | `string` | Caller-writable human-readable name. |
| `--spec.description` | `string` | What the store is for, shown to agents; at most 1024 characters. |
| `--spec.scope` | `enum` | Whose memories are kept apart. Required. One of `project`, `agent`, `end_user`. |
| `--spec.retention` | `duration` | Memories older than this since their last update are deleted, 1d to 3650d; unset keeps them until deleted. |
| `--spec.agent-writes` | `bool` | Whether agents write memories themselves after each turn; otherwise only callers write them. |
| `--allow-missing` | `bool` | Create the memory store when it does not exist (declarative upsert). |
| `--dry-run` | `bool` | Validate and print the result without writing (validate_only). |

## delete

Deletes a memory store. A store an agent names is refused with `RESOURCE_IN_USE`; a store with memories is refused with `INVALID_STATE` unless `force` is set, which deletes them too.

**`NAME`** — the resource's name; a bare id is enough below the linked
project.

**CLI**

```bash
sylphx agents memory-stores delete orgs/acme/projects/shop/envs/production/memory_stores/memory-store --yes
```

`DELETE https://api.sylphx.com/v1/orgs/acme/projects/shop/envs/production/memory_stores/memory-store` · scope `agents:write` · effect `destructive` · [Request, response and examples](/docs/api/memory_stores/delete)

**Flags**

| Flag | Type | What it does |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `--etag` | `string` | Delete only if the current etag matches. |
| `--allow-missing` | `bool` | Succeed when the memory store does not exist. |
| `--dry-run` | `bool` | Validate and print the result without writing (validate_only). |
| `--force` | `bool` | Also delete the store's memories; without it, a store with memories is refused with `INVALID_STATE`. |
| `--yes` | `bool` | Do not ask before this destructive call. |
