soul.py
FeaturedPersistent identity and memory for any LLM agent
Your AI forgets everything when the conversation ends. soul.py fixes that — from simple markdown injection to full RAG + RLM hybrid retrieval. v0.1 uses pure markdown files. v2.0 indexes those memories and automatically routes queries to semantic search (RAG) or exhaustive reasoning (RLM) based on what the question needs. Human-readable files you can edit and git-version, with intelligent retrieval under the hood.

🏛️ soul-legacy
New
Your digital estate vault — encrypted, AI-queryable, with a dead man's switch
When someone dies, their family spends months hunting for documents. soul-legacy fixes that. Store your assets, insurance, wills, debts, beneficiaries, and final wishes in one encrypted vault. Upload documents and ask questions in plain English. Configure a dead man's switch to automatically grant scoped access to your designated inheritors when the time comes.
pip install soul-legacy 🧬 soul-schema
New
Auto-document your data warehouse in 3 minutes
You inherit 100 tables. Zero docs. Columns named cust_ltv, flg_b2b, reg_cd.
The person who knew what they meant left in 2019. soul-schema connects to any database, reads the schema,
and uses an LLM to generate human-readable descriptions for every table and column. Corrections are
"locked" — future runs won't overwrite your edits. The semantic layer learns over time.
pip install soul-schema 🧠 crewai-soul
New
The soul ecosystem for CrewAI agents
CrewAI's built-in memory is a black box. crewai-soul stores memories in human-readable markdown files you can edit and git-version. Same drop-in API, full RAG+RLM hybrid retrieval under the hood via soul-agent. Choose local (file-based) or managed (SoulMate API) — same great memory either way.
pip install crewai-soul ✨ What's Included
- soul-agent: RAG + RLM hybrid memory (required dep)
- soul-schema: Database semantic layers (required dep)
- SoulMateMemory: Drop-in managed cloud backend
- SchemaMemory: Database context for Text-to-SQL agents
🦜 langchain-soul
New
The soul ecosystem for LangChain
Drop-in persistent memory for LangChain. Same soul-agent RAG+RLM, same SoulMate cloud option, same SchemaMemory for database intelligence. Works with ConversationChain, RunnableWithMessageHistory, and any LangChain component that uses memory.
pip install langchain-soul 🦙 llamaindex-soul
New
The soul ecosystem for LlamaIndex
Drop-in chat storage for LlamaIndex. Uses soul-agent's hybrid RAG+RLM retrieval under the hood. Works with ChatMemoryBuffer, FunctionAgent, and any LlamaIndex component that uses chat stores. Same file-based or SoulMate cloud options as the rest of the ecosystem.
pip install llamaindex-soul 🐳 soul-stack
NewOne Docker command to give n8n persistent memory
n8n is stateless by design — every workflow execution starts fresh. soul-stack fixes that. A single Docker container running n8n + soul.py + Jupyter Lab. Your workflows can now remember previous interactions, build context over time, and make intelligent decisions based on history. Works with Anthropic, OpenAI, or 100% local with Ollama.
docker run -d -p 8000:8000 -p 8888:8888 -p 5678:5678 -e ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-... pgmenon/soul-stack:latest ✨ Features (v0.1.3)
- Multi-provider: Anthropic, OpenAI, or Ollama (100% local)
- Backend selection: BM25 (default), ChromaDB, or Qdrant via
SOUL_BACKEND - OpenAI embeddings: Direct support, not just Azure
- CLI tools:

Looking for Enterprise?
SoulMate brings soul.py to production at scale — HIPAA-compliant healthcare, telecom support for millions of customers, financial services personalization. The commercial embodiment of persistent AI memory.
Licensing: The SoulMate API backend (soulmate-api) is source-available under BSL 1.1. Self-host freely, deploy on your own cloud — you just can't resell it as a competing hosted service. Automatically converts to MIT on March 4, 2030. Also available on Docker Hub.
