But what works best for tool-using agents?
-
Stateless: Perfect for one-and-done tasks like searches or notifications
-
Stateful: Better for conversations and personalized experiences
-
Hybrid approach: A practical solution we’ve implemented successfully
Memory Management Made Simple
Memory management doesn’t have to be complex. We have seen that our RAG implementation improved relevance significantly.
Our three-tiered memory system:
-
Episodic for past interactions
-
Working in the current context
-
Semantic for knowledge
delivered solid results while remaining maintainable.
Quick Tip for Your Team
Start with a basic key-value memory store before investing in vector databases. This approach improved our performance by about 40%.
Async Workflows Transform Productivity
Our practical findings show:
→ Task breakdown helps keep agents focused and reduces errors
→ Parallel processing significantly reduces response times
→ Specialized routing directs tasks to the most appropriate agent
What’s your approach? Are you building with memory or starting fresh each time?
