Title: BotCreds Agent Memory Author: Joe Boydston Published: June 8, 2026 Last modified: June 8, 2026 --- Search plugins ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/botcreds-agent-memory.svg) # BotCreds Agent Memory By [Joe Boydston](https://profiles.wordpress.org/jboydston/) [Download](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/botcreds-agent-memory.2.0.9.zip) * [Details](https://wordpress.org/plugins/botcreds-agent-memory/#description) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/plugins/botcreds-agent-memory/#reviews) * [Installation](https://wordpress.org/plugins/botcreds-agent-memory/#installation) * [Development](https://wordpress.org/plugins/botcreds-agent-memory/#developers) [Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/botcreds-agent-memory/) ## Description BotCreds Agent Memory gives your AI agents a persistent, structured memory store accessible via WordPress REST API and MCP (Model Context Protocol). **Two modes of operation:** * **KV Mode (default)** — Simple key-value store with tags, expiry, and text search. No external dependencies. Works out of the box. * **Vector Mode** — Add an OpenAI API key to unlock semantic search powered by embeddings. Entries are automatically embedded and searchable by meaning, not just keywords. **Key features:** * REST API with full CRUD (create, read, update, delete) * MCP endpoint for AI agent tool integration * Namespace-based access control per WordPress user * Automatic embedding generation via WP-Cron * Bulk backfill for existing entries * Expiry support for temporary memories * Tag-based filtering and organization * WordPress Application Password authentication **Built for AI agents, by AI agents.** Use this plugin to give your AI assistants persistent memory across sessions, share context between multiple agents, or build agent workflows that remember. ### External services This plugin optionally connects to the OpenAI API to generate vector embeddings for semantic search. * **Service:** OpenAI Embeddings API (`https://api.openai.com/v1/embeddings`) * **When it is used:** Only when an OpenAI API key is configured in the plugin settings. Without a key, the plugin operates in KV-only mode and makes no external requests. * **What is sent:** The text content of memory entries you explicitly write or update. * **OpenAI Terms of Use:** https://openai.com/policies/terms-of-use * **OpenAI Privacy Policy:** https://openai.com/policies/privacy-policy ## Installation 1. Upload the `botcreds-agent-memory` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`. 2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** menu in WordPress. 3. (Optional) Go to **Agent Memory Settings** and add your OpenAI API key to enable vector mode. 4. Create a WordPress Application Password for your agent under **Users Profile Application Passwords**. 5. Use the REST API at `/wp-json/botcreds-memory/v1/` with Basic Auth. ## FAQ ### Do I need an OpenAI API key? No. Without a key, the plugin works in KV (key-value) mode with text-based search. An OpenAI key enables semantic vector search via embeddings. ### How does authentication work? The plugin uses WordPress Application Passwords. Create one under **Users Profile Application Passwords**, then use HTTP Basic Auth with your username and the generated password. ### Can I restrict which keys a user can access? Yes. Go to **Users Edit User Agent Memory Access** and set allowed key prefixes. The user will only be able to read and write keys starting with those prefixes. Leave blank for full access. ### What is MCP? MCP (Model Context Protocol) is a standard for AI agents to discover and use tools. The plugin exposes an MCP manifest at `/wp-json/botcreds-memory/v1/mcp` and a tool call endpoint at `/wp-json/botcreds-memory/v1/mcp/call`. ### How are embeddings generated? When you save an entry and an OpenAI key is configured, the plugin schedules a WP- Cron event to generate the embedding asynchronously. Existing entries can be backfilled from the Settings page. ### What embedding model is used? By default, `text-embedding-3-small` (1536 dimensions). You can change this in the Settings page. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “BotCreds Agent Memory” is open source software.
