fraise-sdk (Python)

A Python client for a Fraise memory server, plus ready-made memory tools for agent frameworks.

Install

pip install fraise-sdk                 # core client only
pip install 'fraise-sdk[openai]'       # + OpenAI Agents SDK tools
pip install 'fraise-sdk[anthropic]'    # + Claude Agent SDK tools

Client

Two operations, both over the server's single query endpoint:

from fraise_sdk import FraiseClient

with FraiseClient("http://localhost:9876") as fraise:
    fraise.remember("anne loves the color orange", topics=["color"], entities=["anne"])

    result = fraise.recall("anne", "color", top=5)
    for hit in result:
        print(hit.value, hit.score)

recall returns a RecallResult (.count, .hits, and it iterates/len()s over the hits). Vector search is supported by passing an embedding:

fraise.remember("the kingfisher is electric blue", graph=6, vector=embedding)
hits = fraise.recall(graph=6, vector=embedding)  # seeded only by the vector

A recall needs a seed, not a keyword: a vector or a topics/entities filter is one on its own, so fraise.recall(topics=["birds"]) — everything about a topic — is a query in its own right.

Anything the typed helpers do not cover is reachable through the raw fraise.query("recall@3 ...") escape hatch.

Some queries run but read like a near-miss of a different query — a recall whose first keyword is also a grammar keyword, e.g. fraise.recall("since", "7d"), one : away from a since:7d time filter. The server answers them and attaches a warning; the SDK lists it on result.warnings and re-emits it as a FraiseWarning:

import warnings
from fraise_sdk import FraiseWarning

warnings.filterwarnings("ignore", category=FraiseWarning)  # silence wholesale

The query shapes that warn (and the neighbouring ones that stay silent) are catalogued in Warnings.

Embeddings (optional)

Give the client an embedder and it encodes text to a vector automatically — remember embeds its value, recall embeds its query phrase (or its keywords):

from fraise_sdk import FraiseClient
from fraise_sdk.providers import OpenAIEmbedder   # needs fraise-sdk[openai]

fraise = FraiseClient("http://localhost:9876", embedder=OpenAIEmbedder(dimensions=128))

fraise.remember("the kingfisher is electric blue", graph=6)          # stored with its vector
hits = fraise.recall("small bright bird", graph=6, query="small bright bird")

An embedder is anything implementing the Embedder ABC (subclass it and define embed(text) -> Sequence[float]) or a plain callable(text) -> Sequence[float], so a lambda over your own model works too. Per call you can force it with embed=True, skip it with embed=False, or override with an explicit vector=. Only OpenAI is provided today — Anthropic has no embeddings API.

OpenAI Agents tools

memory_tools(client) returns a recall and a remember FunctionTool bound to one memory graph, so the agent decides what to store and retrieve:

from agents import Agent, Runner
from fraise_sdk import FraiseClient
from fraise_sdk.integrations.openai_agents import memory_tools

fraise = FraiseClient("http://localhost:9876")
agent = Agent(
    name="Assistant",
    instructions="Remember durable facts the user shares, and recall them when relevant.",
    tools=memory_tools(fraise),
)

result = Runner.run_sync(agent, "My favourite colour is orange. Remember that.")
print(result.final_output)

Pass an embedder — memory_tools(fraise, embedder=OpenAIEmbedder()) — to make the tools vectorise implicitly: recall and remember encode their text through it and carry the vector alongside.

See examples/openai-agents/ for a complete, Docker-runnable script.

Claude Agent SDK tools

The Claude Agent SDK groups tools into an in-process MCP server, so the entry point is memory_server(client); pair it with allowed_tools():

from claude_agent_sdk import ClaudeAgentOptions, ClaudeSDKClient
from fraise_sdk import FraiseClient
from fraise_sdk.integrations.claude_agents import memory_server, allowed_tools

fraise = FraiseClient("http://localhost:9876")
options = ClaudeAgentOptions(
    system_prompt="Remember durable facts the user shares, and recall them when relevant.",
    mcp_servers={"fraise_memory": memory_server(fraise)},
    allowed_tools=allowed_tools(),
)

memory_server(fraise, embedder=OpenAIEmbedder()) makes the tools vectorise implicitly, exactly as in the OpenAI integration.

See examples/claude-agent-sdk/ for a complete, Docker-runnable script.

Notes & limits

• A fact value is stored inside a single-quoted phrase where every character is literal; the SDK escapes apostrophes for you, so remember("it's blue") stores the text exactly as written.
• Keywords, topics, and entities are single whitespace-free tokens.
• The first vector written to a graph fixes that graph's embedding dimension; later writes to the same graph must match it.
• FraiseClient defaults to a 30s request timeout (timeout= on the constructor or on individual query/remember/recall calls overrides it); a request that exceeds it raises FraiseError naming the timeout, distinct from the error raised when the server can't be reached at all.
