Persistent state for AI agent pipelines. How LangGraph, CrewAI, and AutoGen agents remember workflow state, decisions, and context across execution rounds.
AI agent frameworks (LangGraph, CrewAI, AutoGen) execute multi-step workflows. Each step may involve different agents, tools, and contexts. Without persistent pipeline memory:
"Cross-agent memory reduces the need to re-establish context at the start of each task by allowing validated information to persist across agents and sessions." — GitHub Blog, January 15, 2026
"Memori is agent-native memory infrastructure. A SQL-native, LLM-agnostic layer that turns agent execution and interactions into structured, persistent state for production systems." — MemoriLabs/Memori on GitHub, 5 days ago
"Agent completes significant work (bugfix, architecture decision, etc.) → Agent calls mem_save → title, type, What/Why/Where/Learn captured persistently. Agent-agnostic Go binary with SQLite + FTS5, MCP server, HTTP API, CLI, and TUI." — Gentleman-Programming/engram on GitHub, 3 days ago
"user_id — memories that belong to a specific user, persisting across all sessions. agent_id — memories that belong to a specific agent instance." — Mem0: State of AI Agent Memory 2026
Multi-agent orchestration with checkpoint support. Integrates memory across agent crews for shared context.
State graph execution with pause/resume hooks. Each node can read/write persistent state.
Multi-agent conversation framework with built-in persistence options for agent state.

agent-memory integrates with LangGraph, CrewAI, and AutoGen via MCP to provide persistent pipeline state:
# agent-memory for AI agent pipelines
pip install agent-memory
# Start MCP server for pipeline memory
python -m agent_memory.mcp_server \
--storage redis \
--host localhost \
--port 6379 \
--path pipeline-memory
# LangGraph, CrewAI, AutoGen connect via MCP
# Pipeline state persists across all workflow steps
