+## LibreChat Turns 3!
+
+LibreChat officially turned 3 on February 11th! 🎉🥳
+
+I'm incredibly grateful to everyone who's contributed, whether through feedback, code, or just showing up and using the project.
+
+## 2025 in Review
+
+Before looking ahead, let's take stock of what we accomplished in 2025 (see [last year's roadmap](/blog/2025-02-20_2025_roadmap)):
+
+- Started the year at 22,200 GitHub stars, reaching **33,900+** as of writing
+- Over **6,800 forks** and over 23 million container registry pulls
+- Community Discord server grown to over **9,000 members**
+- Major feature releases from v0.7.8 through **[v0.8.3-rc1](/changelog/v0.8.3-rc1)**
+- Acquired by [ClickHouse](https://clickhouse.com/blog/clickhouse-acquires-librechat) to democratize AI-driven analytics
+
+**Key feature milestones:**
+- Multi-agent support through our app-agnostic [Agents framework](https://github.com/danny-avila/agents/)
+- Native web search, OCR, inline Mermaid diagrams, pinned models/agents
+- [Resumable chats](/docs/features/resumable_streams) preserving responses through disconnects, tab switches, and device changes
+- Multimodal file support: video understanding, PDFs, native provider file handling
+- [Image generation and editing](/docs/features/image_gen) with GPT-Image-1+ and Gemini (Nano Banana)
+- [MCP](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/) integrations, plus dynamic server management from the UI
+- Sharing agents, prompts, and MCP servers between users, backed by Access Control Lists (ACLs)
+- [User Memories](/docs/configuration/librechat_yaml/object_structure/memory) for personalized context across conversations
+- [OpenAI-compatible Agents API](/docs/features/agents_api) for external integrations and automation (in Beta)
+
+---
+
+## The 2026 Roadmap
+
+This year, instead of a list of every possible feature, **we're focusing on just two quarters at a time**: Q1 and Q2. This keeps commitments honest, timelines realistic, and lets us adapt as the AI landscape continues to shift under everyone's feet.
+
+We use LibreChat internally at ClickHouse to power agentic data analytics, and much of this roadmap reflects what we need to run it in production.
+
+We'll revisit and publish the H2 roadmap mid-year.
+
+> Note: as always, bug fixes and smaller improvements ship continuously alongside roadmap work.
+
+---
+
+### Q1
+
+Q1 has 2 major focus areas that will define LibreChat's next chapter.
+
+---
+
+#### Admin Panel
+
+The v1 Admin Panel ([#3137](https://github.com/danny-avila/LibreChat/issues/3137)) will have four core capabilities:
+
+- **GUI for Configuration**
+  - A graphical interface for everything currently managed through `librechat.yaml`, eliminating the need to edit YAML files for [custom configuration](/docs/configuration/librechat_yaml)
+- **Configuration Profiles**
+  - Apply custom configuration profiles to roles initially, with group-level profiles as a stretch goal
+- **Group & Role Management**
+  - Create and manage groups and roles from the UI, with user management as a stretch goal
+- **Access Controls Throughout**
+  - Access controls embedded into every aspect of the admin panel, not bolted on after the fact
+
+Together, these capabilities make it possible to shape LibreChat into different experiences; for example, streamlined for business users, fully open for power users.
+
+Once released, the Admin Panel will continue to be developed and iterated on in public.
+
+---
+
+#### Dynamic Context
+
+The best agentic workflows start lean and pull context as needed. Less noise, fewer tokens, better results.
+
+LibreChat already implements some patterns from the dynamic context playbook, but by the end of Q1, we're going deeper:
+
+- **Agent Skills** ([#11106](https://github.com/danny-avila/LibreChat/issues/11106))
+  - A new standard for domain-specific instructions and bundled resources
+- **Programmatic Tool Calling (PTC)**
+  - Code orchestration for tools, giving agents incredible flexibility of how tool outputs are interpreted
+- **Conversation Summarization**
+  - Intelligent context compression for long-running conversations, preserving key details while reclaiming token budget
+
+The goal is LibreChat agents that are smarter about what they know and when they know it.
+
+To power Skills and PTC, I will be open-sourcing the [Code Interpreter API](/docs/features/code_interpreter) by end of Q1, giving agents the ability to execute code in a safe and scalable way, tailored for LibreChat's implementation of these features.
+
+Notable features already completed as part of Dynamic Context:
+- [Event-driven lazy tool execution](https://github.com/danny-avila/LibreChat/pull/11588) for MCP tools
+- [Deferred tool discovery](/docs/features/agents#deferred-tools) for Agents using MCP tools
+
+**For more information on these topics:**
+- [Agent Skills Overview](https://agentskills.io/home)
+- [Dynamic Context](https://cursor.com/blog/dynamic-context-discovery) in Cursor
+- [Code mode](https://blog.cloudflare.com/code-mode/) by Cloudflare
+- [Advanced Tool Use](https://www.anthropic.com/engineering/advanced-tool-use) by Anthropic
+- [My demo of Programmatic Tool Calling](https://youtu.be/5DUvTbntkAg?si=80c9J9fryLoVhYPy&t=515) from a recent ClickHouse event in NYC
+
+---
+
+### Q2
+
+Q2 builds on Q1's foundation with new capabilities and continued iteration on existing features.
+
+---
+
+#### Tool UI Refresh
+
+> Note: This is a major focus in Q2, but may start in Q1 time-permitting.
+
+The UI that displays when an agent calls a tool is outdated and needs a refresh, especially for structured inputs and outputs.
+
+[Artifacts](/docs/features/artifacts) remains a popular feature that will also see improvements, including:
+
+- Rendering outputs from files and tool results
+- Dedicated tools for data visualization and analysis
+- Making generated artifacts easier to share and maintain between iterations
+
+---
+
+#### Workflows & Interactivity
+
+- **Human-in-the-Loop** ([#5580](https://github.com/danny-avila/LibreChat/issues/5580))
+  - approval gates for tool usage, letting users review and authorize agent actions before execution
+- **Message Queuing & Interruptions**
+  - queuing follow-up messages and gracefully interrupting in-progress responses, for a more natural back-and-forth

+### Conclusion
+
+Three years in, LibreChat continues to be the most comprehensive open-source AI chat platform available. The focus this year is depth over breadth--making agents genuinely smarter about context, giving admins the tools they need, and building the interactive workflows that turn chat into something more.
+
+We'll check back at the half-year mark with the H2 roadmap. In the meantime, share your thoughts in the discussion threads below.

+description: Configure and use AWS Bedrock custom inference profiles with LibreChat for cross-region load balancing, cost allocation, and compliance controls.
+---
+
+This guide explains how to configure and use AWS Bedrock custom inference profiles with LibreChat, allowing you to route model requests through custom application inference profiles for better control, cost allocation, and cross-region load balancing.
+
+## Overview
+
+AWS Bedrock inference profiles allow you to create custom routing configurations for foundation models. When you create a custom (application) inference profile, AWS generates a unique ARN that doesn't contain model name information:
+
+```
+arn:aws:bedrock:us-east-1:123456789012:application-inference-profile/abc123def456
+```
+
+LibreChat's inference profile mapping feature allows you to:
+1. Map friendly model IDs to custom inference profile ARNs
+2. Route requests through your custom profiles while maintaining model capability detection
+3. Use environment variables for secure ARN management
+
+## Why Use Custom Inference Profiles?
+
+| Benefit | Description |
+|---------|-------------|
+| **Cross-Region Load Balancing** | Automatically distribute requests across multiple AWS regions |
+| **Cost Allocation** | Tag and track costs per application or team |
+| **Throughput Management** | Configure dedicated throughput for your applications |
+| **Compliance** | Route requests through specific regions for data residency |
+| **Monitoring** | Track usage per inference profile in CloudWatch |
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+Before you begin, ensure you have:
+
+1. **AWS Account** with Bedrock access enabled
+2. **AWS CLI** installed and configured
+3. **IAM Permissions**:
+   - `bedrock:CreateInferenceProfile`
+   - `bedrock:ListInferenceProfiles`
+   - `bedrock:GetInferenceProfile`
+   - `bedrock:InvokeModel` / `bedrock:InvokeModelWithResponseStream`
+4. **LibreChat** with Bedrock endpoint configured (see [AWS Bedrock Setup](/docs/configuration/pre_configured_ai/bedrock))
+
+## Creating Custom Inference Profiles
+
+> **Important**: Custom inference profiles can only be created via API (AWS CLI, SDK, etc.) and cannot be created from the AWS Console.
+
+### Method 1: AWS CLI (Recommended)
+
+#### Step 1: List Available System Inference Profiles
+
+```bash
+# List all inference profiles
+aws bedrock list-inference-profiles --region us-east-1
+
+# Filter for Claude models
+aws bedrock list-inference-profiles --region us-east-1 \
+  --query "inferenceProfileSummaries[?contains(inferenceProfileId, 'claude')]"
+```
+
+#### Step 2: Create a Custom Inference Profile
+
+```bash
+# Get the system inference profile ARN to copy from
+export SOURCE_PROFILE_ARN=$(aws bedrock list-inference-profiles --region us-east-1 \
+  --query "inferenceProfileSummaries[?inferenceProfileId=='us.anthropic.claude-3-7-sonnet-20250219-v1:0'].inferenceProfileArn" \
+  --output text)
+
+# Create your custom inference profile
+aws bedrock create-inference-profile \
+  --inference-profile-name "MyApp-Claude-3-7-Sonnet" \
+  --description "Custom inference profile for my application" \
+  --model-source copyFrom="$SOURCE_PROFILE_ARN" \
+  --region us-east-1
+```
+
+#### Step 3: Verify Creation
+
+```bash
+# List your custom profiles
+aws bedrock list-inference-profiles --type-equals APPLICATION --region us-east-1
+
+# Get details of a specific profile
+aws bedrock get-inference-profile \
+  --inference-profile-identifier "arn:aws:bedrock:us-east-1:123456789012:application-inference-profile/abc123" \
+  --region us-east-1
+```
+
+### Method 2: Python Script
+
+```python
+import boto3
+
+AWS_REGION = 'us-east-1'
+
+def create_inference_profile(profile_name: str, source_model_id: str):
+    """
+    Create a custom inference profile for LibreChat.
+
+    Args:

+        source_model_id: The system inference profile ID to copy from
+                        (e.g., 'us.anthropic.claude-3-7-sonnet-20250219-v1:0')
+    """
+    bedrock = boto3.client('bedrock', region_name=AWS_REGION)
+
+    profiles = bedrock.list_inference_profiles()
+    source_arn = None
+    for profile in profiles['inferenceProfileSummaries']:
+        if profile['inferenceProfileId'] == source_model_id:
+            source_arn = profile['inferenceProfileArn']
+            break
+
+    if not source_arn:
+        raise ValueError(f"Source profile {source_model_id} not found")
+
+    response = bedrock.create_inference_profile(
+        inferenceProfileName=profile_name,
+        description=f'Custom inference profile for {profile_name}',
+        modelSource={'copyFrom': source_arn},
+        tags=[
+            {'key': 'Application', 'value': 'LibreChat'},
+            {'key': 'Environment', 'value': 'Production'}
+        ]
+    )
+
+    print(f"Created profile: {response['inferenceProfileArn']}")
+    return response['inferenceProfileArn']
+
+if __name__ == "__main__":
+    create_inference_profile(
+        "LibreChat-Claude-3-7-Sonnet",
+        "us.anthropic.claude-3-7-sonnet-20250219-v1:0"
+    )
+    create_inference_profile(

+        "us.anthropic.claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929-v1:0"
+    )
+```
+
+## Configuring LibreChat
+
+### librechat.yaml Configuration
+
+Add the `bedrock` endpoint configuration to your `librechat.yaml`. For full field reference, see [AWS Bedrock Object Structure](/docs/configuration/librechat_yaml/object_structure/aws_bedrock).
+
+```yaml filename="librechat.yaml"
+endpoints:
+  bedrock:

+    models:
+      - "us.anthropic.claude-3-7-sonnet-20250219-v1:0"
+      - "us.anthropic.claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929-v1:0"
+      - "global.anthropic.claude-opus-4-5-20251101-v1:0"
+    # Map model IDs to their custom inference profile ARNs
+    inferenceProfiles:

+      "global.anthropic.claude-opus-4-5-20251101-v1:0": "${BEDROCK_OPUS_45_PROFILE}"
+    # Optional: Configure available regions for cross-region inference
+    availableRegions:
+      - "us-east-1"
+      - "us-west-2"
+```
+
+### Environment Variables
+
+Add your AWS credentials and inference profile ARNs to your `.env` file:
+
+```bash filename=".env"
+#===================================#
+# AWS Bedrock Configuration         #
+#===================================#
+
+# AWS Credentials
+BEDROCK_AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE

+```
+
+### 2. Create IAM Role for Bedrock Logging
+
+Create the trust policy file (`bedrock-logging-trust.json`):
+
+```json filename="bedrock-logging-trust.json"
+{
+  "Version": "2012-10-17",
+  "Statement": [
+    {
+      "Effect": "Allow",

+        "Service": "bedrock.amazonaws.com"
+      },
+      "Action": "sts:AssumeRole",
+      "Condition": {
+        "StringEquals": {
+          "aws:SourceAccount": "YOUR_ACCOUNT_ID"
+        },
+        "ArnLike": {
+          "aws:SourceArn": "arn:aws:bedrock:us-east-1:YOUR_ACCOUNT_ID:*"
+        }
+      }
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+Create the role:
+
+```bash
+aws iam create-role \
+  --role-name BedrockLoggingRole \
+  --assume-role-policy-document file://bedrock-logging-trust.json
+```
+
+Attach CloudWatch Logs permissions:
+
+```bash

+  --role-name BedrockLoggingRole \
+  --policy-name BedrockLoggingPolicy \
+  --policy-document '{
+    "Version": "2012-10-17",

+      }
+    ]
+  }'
+```
+
+Create S3 bucket for large data (required):
+
+```bash
+aws s3 mb s3://bedrock-logs-YOUR_ACCOUNT_ID --region us-east-1
+
+aws iam put-role-policy \
+  --role-name BedrockLoggingRole \
+  --policy-name BedrockS3Policy \
+  --policy-document '{
+    "Version": "2012-10-17",

+        "Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::bedrock-logs-YOUR_ACCOUNT_ID/*"
+      }
+    ]
+  }'
+```
+
+### 3. Enable Model Invocation Logging
+
+```bash
+aws bedrock put-model-invocation-logging-configuration \
+  --logging-config '{
+    "cloudWatchConfig": {
+      "logGroupName": "/aws/bedrock/model-invocations",
+      "roleArn": "arn:aws:iam::YOUR_ACCOUNT_ID:role/BedrockLoggingRole",
+      "largeDataDeliveryS3Config": {
+        "bucketName": "bedrock-logs-YOUR_ACCOUNT_ID",
+        "keyPrefix": "large-data"
+      }
+    },
+    "textDataDeliveryEnabled": true,
+    "imageDataDeliveryEnabled": true,
+    "embeddingDataDeliveryEnabled": true
+  }' \
+  --region us-east-1
+```
+
+Verify logging is enabled:
+
+```bash
+aws bedrock get-model-invocation-logging-configuration --region us-east-1
+```
+
+## Verifying Your Configuration
+
+### View Logs via CLI
+
+After making a request through LibreChat, check the logs:
+
+```bash
+# Tail logs in real-time
+aws logs tail /aws/bedrock/model-invocations --follow --region us-east-1
+
+# View recent logs
+aws logs tail /aws/bedrock/model-invocations --since 5m --region us-east-1
+```
+
+### What to Look For
+
+In the log output, look for the `modelId` field:
+
+```json
+{
+  "timestamp": "2026-01-16T16:56:15Z",
+  "accountId": "123456789012",
+  "region": "us-east-1",
+  "requestId": "a8b9d8c9-87b3-41ea-8a02-e8bfdba7782f",
+  "operation": "ConverseStream",
+  "modelId": "arn:aws:bedrock:us-east-1:123456789012:application-inference-profile/abc123",
+  "inferenceRegion": "us-west-2"
+}
+```
+
+**Success indicators:**
+- `modelId` shows your custom inference profile ARN (contains `application-inference-profile`)
+- `inferenceRegion` may vary (shows cross-region routing is working)
+
+**If mapping isn't working:**
+- `modelId` will show the raw model ID instead of the ARN
+
+### View Logs via AWS Console
+
+1. Open **CloudWatch** in the AWS Console
+2. Navigate to **Logs** > **Log groups**
+3. Select `/aws/bedrock/model-invocations`
+4. Click on the latest log stream
+5. Search for your inference profile ID

+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Common Issues
+
+| Issue | Cause | Solution |
+|-------|-------|----------|
+| Model not recognized | Missing model in `models` array | Add the model ID to `models` in librechat.yaml |
+| ARN not being used | Model ID doesn't match | Ensure the model ID in `inferenceProfiles` exactly matches what's in `models` |
+| Env variable not resolved | Typo or not set | Check `.env` file and ensure variable name matches `${VAR_NAME}` |
+| Access Denied | Missing IAM permissions | Add `bedrock:InvokeModel*` permissions for the inference profile ARN |
+| Profile not found | Wrong region | Ensure you're creating/using profiles in the same region |
+
+### Debug Checklist
+
+1. Model ID is in the `models` array
+2. Model ID in `inferenceProfiles` exactly matches (case-sensitive)
+3. Environment variable is set (if using `${VAR}` syntax)
+4. AWS credentials have permission to invoke the inference profile
+5. LibreChat has been restarted after config changes
+
+### Verify Config Loading
+
+Check that your config is being read correctly by examining the server logs when LibreChat starts.

+# Agents: Build Custom AI Assistants
+
 LibreChat's AI Agents feature provides a flexible framework for creating custom AI assistants powered by various model providers.
 
 This feature is similar to OpenAI's Assistants API and ChatGPT's GPTs, but with broader model support and a no-code implementation, letting you build sophisticated assistants with specialized capabilities.

+### Deferred Tools
+
+Deferred tools allow agents to have access to many MCP tools without loading them all into the LLM context upfront. Instead, deferred tools are discoverable at runtime via a **Tool Search** mechanism.
+
+This is especially useful when an agent has access to many MCP servers with dozens of tools—loading them all would consume a large portion of the context window and degrade response quality.
+
+**How it works:**
+- Tools marked as "deferred" are excluded from the initial LLM context
+- A `ToolSearch` tool is automatically added, allowing the LLM to discover and load deferred tools on demand
+- Once discovered, the tool is available for the rest of the conversation
+
+**Configuring deferred tools:**
+1. Open the Agent Builder and add MCP tools
+2. Click the dropdown on any MCP tool
+3. Toggle "Defer Loading" — deferred tools show a clock icon
+
+**Note:** The `deferred_tools` capability is enabled by default. It can be toggled via the [`librechat.yaml` agents configuration](/docs/configuration/librechat_yaml/object_structure/agents#capabilities).
+
+{/*
+### Programmatic Tool Calling
+
+**Note:** this feature is still in private beta and not accessible to all users.
+
+Programmatic Tool Calling (PTC) allows MCP tools to be executed via code in a sandbox environment rather than being called directly by the LLM. This enables more complex tool orchestration—for example, calling multiple tools in sequence, processing results with code, or building dynamic workflows.
+
+**How it works:**
+- Tools marked for "code execution" calling are routed through the Code Interpreter sandbox
+- The LLM writes code that calls the tools programmatically, allowing for loops, conditionals, and data transformations
+- Results flow back through the sandbox to the LLM
+
+**Configuring programmatic tools:**
+1. Open the Agent Builder and add MCP tools
+2. Click the dropdown on any MCP tool
+3. Toggle "Code Execution" calling — programmatic tools show a code icon
+
+**Note:** The `programmatic_tools` capability is **disabled by default** and requires the latest [Code Interpreter API](/docs/features/code_interpreter). It can be enabled via the [`librechat.yaml` agents configuration](/docs/configuration/librechat_yaml/object_structure/agents#capabilities).

+description: Access LibreChat agents programmatically via OpenAI-compatible and Open Responses API endpoints
+---
+
+<Callout type="warning" title="Beta Feature">
+The Agents API is currently in beta. Endpoints, request/response formats, and behavior may change as we iterate toward a stable release.
+</Callout>
+
+LibreChat exposes your agents through two API-compatible interfaces, allowing external applications, scripts, and services to interact with your agents programmatically.
+
+## Overview
+
+The Agents API provides two interfaces:
+
+- **OpenAI-compatible Chat Completions** — `POST /api/agents/v1/chat/completions`
+- **Open Responses API** — `POST /api/agents/v1/responses`
+
+Both are authenticated via API keys and support streaming responses, making it easy to integrate LibreChat agents into existing workflows that already use OpenAI SDKs or similar tooling.
+
+LibreChat is adopting [Open Responses](https://www.openresponses.org/) as its primary API framework for serving agents. While the Chat Completions endpoint provides backward compatibility with existing OpenAI-compatible tooling, the Open Responses endpoint represents the future direction. See our [blog post](/blog/2026-01-17_open_responses) for more on this decision.
+
+## Enabling the Agents API
+
+The Agents API is gated behind the `remoteAgents` interface configuration. All permissions default to `false`.
+
+```yaml filename="librechat.yaml"
+interface:
+  remoteAgents:
+    use: true
+    create: true
+```
+
+See [Interface Configuration — remoteAgents](/docs/configuration/librechat_yaml/object_structure/interface#remoteagents) for all available options.
+
+**Note:** Admin users have all remote agent permissions enabled by default.
+
+## API Key Management
+
+Once `remoteAgents.use` and `remoteAgents.create` are enabled, users can generate API keys from the LibreChat UI. These keys authenticate requests to the Agents API.
+
+## Endpoints
+
+### Chat Completions (OpenAI-compatible)
+
+```
+POST /api/agents/v1/chat/completions
+```
+
+Use any OpenAI-compatible SDK by pointing it at your LibreChat instance. The `model` parameter corresponds to an agent ID.
+
+**Example with curl:**
+```bash
+curl -X POST https://your-librechat-instance/api/agents/v1/chat/completions \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "model": "agent_abc123",
+    "messages": [
+      {"role": "user", "content": "Hello, what can you help me with?"}
+    ],
+    "stream": true
+  }'
+```
+
+**Example with OpenAI SDK (Python):**
+```python
+from openai import OpenAI
+
+client = OpenAI(
+    base_url="https://your-librechat-instance/api/agents/v1",
+    api_key="YOUR_API_KEY"
+)
+
+response = client.chat.completions.create(
+    model="agent_abc123",
+    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}],
+    stream=True
+)
+
+for chunk in response:
+    print(chunk.choices[0].delta.content, end="")
+```
+
+### List Models
+
+```
+GET /api/agents/v1/models
+```
+
+Returns available agents as models. Useful for discovering which agents are accessible with your API key.
+
+### Open Responses API
+
+```
+POST /api/agents/v1/responses
+```
+
+The Open Responses endpoint follows the [Open Responses specification](https://www.openresponses.org/), an open inference standard initiated by OpenAI and built by the open-source AI community. It is designed for agentic workflows with native support for reasoning, tool use, structured outputs, and streaming semantic events.
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST https://your-librechat-instance/api/agents/v1/responses \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "model": "agent_abc123",
+    "input": "What is the weather today?"
+  }'
+```
+
+## Token Usage Tracking
+
+All Agents API requests track token usage against the user's balance (when token spending is configured). Both input and output tokens are counted, including cache tokens for providers that support them (OpenAI, Anthropic).
+
+## Roadmap
+
+- **Open Responses as primary interface** — We plan to expand the Open Responses endpoint with full support for agentic loops, tool orchestration, and streaming semantic events.
+- **Anthropic Messages API** — We may add support for the Anthropic Messages API format as an additional interface in the future.

 ## Overview
 
-Memory in LibreChat allows the system to remember information across conversations, providing a more personalized and context-aware experience. When enabled, the AI can recall user preferences, important facts, and conversation context to enhance future interactions.
+User Memory in LibreChat is a **key/value store** that persists user-specific information across conversations. A dedicated memory agent runs at the start of **every chat request**, reading from and writing to this store to provide personalized context to the main AI response.
+
+<Callout type="info" title="Key/Value Store, Not Conversation Memory">
+This is **not** semantic memory over your entire conversation history. It does not index, embed, or search past conversations. Instead, it maintains a structured set of key/value pairs (e.g., `user_preferences`, `learned_facts`) that are injected into each request as context. Think of it as a persistent notepad the AI reads before every response.
+
+For context about previous messages within a single conversation, LibreChat already uses the standard message history window — that is separate from this feature.

 ## Key Features
 
-- **Persistent Context**: Information learned in one conversation can be recalled in future conversations
+- **Runs Every Request**: The memory agent executes at the start of each chat request, ensuring stored context is always available
+- **Key/Value Storage**: Information is stored as structured key/value pairs, not as raw conversation logs
+- **Manual Entries**: Users can manually add, edit, or remove memory entries directly, giving full control over what the AI remembers
 - **User Control**: When enabled, users can toggle memory on/off for their individual chats
-- **Customizable Storage**: Control what types of information can be stored using valid keys
+- **Customizable Keys**: Restrict what categories of information can be stored using `validKeys`
 - **Token Management**: Set limits on memory usage to control costs
 - **Agent Integration**: Use AI agents to intelligently manage what gets remembered

 <Callout type="note" title="Memory Agent Execution">
-Until smart detection of memory-relevant requests (beyond the LLM's own agency) is implemented, the memory agent runs on every request when memory is enabled.
+The memory agent runs on **every chat request** when memory is enabled. It executes concurrently with the main chat response — it begins before the main response starts and is limited to the duration of the main request plus up to 3 seconds after it finishes.
 
-Timing and order:
-- The memory agent runs before the main chat response.
-- It is limited to the amount of time it takes the main chat request to completely finish, plus up to 3 seconds after the initial chat request finishes.
-- This design ensures memory updates are applied promptly and are expected to finish sooner if updates are needed, without delaying the user's chat experience.
+This means every message you send triggers the memory agent to:
+1. **Read** the current key/value store and inject relevant entries as context
+2. **Analyze** the recent message window for information worth storing or updating
+3. **Write** any new or modified entries back to the store

 3. Check that the custom endpoint is working for regular chat completions before testing with memory
 4. Review server logs for authentication errors from the custom endpoint API
 
+## Future Improvements
+
+The current implementation runs the memory agent on every chat request unconditionally. Planned improvements include:
+
+- **Semantic Trigger for Writes**: Detect when a user has explicitly asked the model to remember something (e.g., "Remember that I prefer Python") and only run the memory write agent in those cases, reducing unnecessary processing on routine messages.
+- **Vector Similarity Recall**: Instead of injecting all stored memory entries into every request, use vector embeddings to retrieve only the entries most relevant to the current conversation context, improving both efficiency and relevance.
