-## What It Does
+## Why Headroom?
-Headroom is a **smart compression layer** for LLM applications:
+- **Zero code changes** - works as a transparent proxy
+- **50-90% cost savings** - verified on real workloads
+- **Reversible compression** - LLM retrieves original data via CCR
+- **Content-aware** - code, logs, JSON each handled optimally
+- **Provider caching** - automatic prefix optimization for cache hits
+- **Persistent memory** - remember across conversations with zero-latency extraction
+- **Framework native** - LangChain, MCP, agents supported
-- **Compresses tool outputs** — 1000 search results → 15 items (keeps errors, anomalies, relevant items)
-- **Enables provider caching** — Stabilizes prefixes so cache hits actually happen
-- **Manages context windows** — Prevents token limit failures without breaking tool calls
-- **Reversible compression** — LLM can retrieve original data if needed ([CCR architecture](docs/ccr.md))
+---
-Works as a **proxy** (zero code changes) or **SDK** (fine-grained control).
+## Headroom vs Alternatives
+
+| Approach | Token Reduction | Accuracy | Reversible | Latency |
+|----------|-----------------|----------|------------|---------|
+| **Headroom** | 50-90% | No loss | Yes (CCR) | ~1-5ms |
+| Truncation | Variable | Data loss | No | ~0ms |
+| Summarization | 60-80% | Lossy | No | ~500ms+ |
+| No optimization | 0% | Full | N/A | 0ms |
+
+**Headroom wins** because it intelligently selects relevant content while keeping a retrieval path to the original data.

+# Memory
+
+**Persistent memory for LLM applications.** Enable your AI to remember across conversations without carrying full history.
+
+## Why Memory?
+
+LLMs have two fundamental limitations:
+1. **Context windows overflow** - Too much history, need to truncate
+2. **No persistence** - Every conversation starts from zero
+
+Memory solves both: **extract key facts, persist them, inject when relevant.**
+
+This is *temporal compression* - instead of carrying 10,000 tokens of conversation history, carry 100 tokens of extracted memories.
+
+---
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### Zero-Latency Memory (Recommended)
+
+```python
+from openai import OpenAI
+from headroom.memory import with_fast_memory
+
+# One line - that's it
+client = with_fast_memory(OpenAI(), user_id="alice")
+
+# Use exactly like normal
+response = client.chat.completions.create(
+ model="gpt-4o",
+ messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "I prefer Python for backend work"}]
+)
+# Memory extracted INLINE - zero extra latency
+
+# Later, in a new conversation...
+response = client.chat.completions.create(
+ model="gpt-4o",
+ messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "What language should I use?"}]
+)
+# → Response uses the Python preference from memory
+```
+
+### How It Works
+
+```
+┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
+│ with_fast_memory() │
+│ │
+│ 1. INJECT: Search memories → prepend to user message │
+│ 2. INSTRUCT: Add memory extraction instruction │
+│ 3. CALL: Forward to LLM │
+│ 4. PARSE: Extract block from response │
+│ 5. STORE: Save memories with embeddings │
+│ 6. RETURN: Clean response (without memory block) │
+│ │
+└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+```
+
+**Key insight**: Memory extraction happens *inline* as part of the LLM response. No extra API calls, no extra latency.
+
+---
+
+## Two Approaches
+
+### 1. Fast Memory (Inline Extraction)
+
+```python
+from headroom.memory import with_fast_memory
+
+client = with_fast_memory(
+ OpenAI(),
+ user_id="alice",
+ db_path="memory.db", # SQLite storage
+ top_k=5, # Memories to inject
+ use_local_embeddings=True, # Local model (fast) vs OpenAI API
+)
+```
+
+**Characteristics:**
+- Zero extra latency (extraction is part of response)
+- ~100 extra output tokens per response
+- Smart extraction (LLM decides what's important)
+- Semantic retrieval (vector similarity)
+
+### 2. Background Memory (Separate Extraction)
+
+```python
+from headroom.memory import with_memory
+
+client = with_memory(
+ OpenAI(),
+ user_id="alice",
+ db_path="memory.db",
+)
+```
+
+**Characteristics:**
+- Non-blocking (extraction happens in background worker)
+- Separate LLM call for extraction
+- Good when you don't want to modify responses
+
+---
+
+## Memory API
+
+Both wrappers provide a `.memory` API for direct access:
+
+```python
+client = with_fast_memory(OpenAI(), user_id="alice")
+
+# Search memories
+results = client.memory.search("python preferences", top_k=5)
+for memory, score in results:
+ print(f"{score:.2f}: {memory.text}")
+
+# Add manual memory
+client.memory.add("User is a senior engineer", category="fact")
+
+# Get all memories
+all_memories = client.memory.get_all()
+
+# Clear memories
+client.memory.clear()
+
+# Get stats
+stats = client.memory.stats()
+print(f"Total memories: {stats['total_chunks']}")
+```
+
+---
+
+## Memory Categories
+
+Memories are categorized for better organization:
+
+| Category | Description | Examples |
+|----------|-------------|----------|
+| `preference` | Likes, dislikes, preferred approaches | "Prefers Python", "Likes async/await" |
+| `fact` | Identity, role, constraints | "Works at fintech startup", "Senior engineer" |
+| `context` | Current goals, ongoing tasks | "Migrating to microservices", "Working on auth" |
+
+---
+
+## Configuration
+
+### Storage
+
+```python
+# SQLite (default, local)
+client = with_fast_memory(OpenAI(), user_id="alice", db_path="memory.db")
+
+# Custom path
+client = with_fast_memory(OpenAI(), user_id="alice", db_path="/data/memories.db")
+```
+
+### Embeddings
+
+```python
+# Local embeddings (recommended - fast, free)
+client = with_fast_memory(
+ OpenAI(),
+ user_id="alice",
+ use_local_embeddings=True,
+ embedding_model="all-MiniLM-L6-v2", # 384 dimensions
+)
+
+# OpenAI embeddings (higher quality, costs money)
+client = with_fast_memory(
+ OpenAI(),
+ user_id="alice",
+ use_local_embeddings=False, # Uses text-embedding-3-small
+)
+```
+
+### Retrieval
+
+```python
+# Number of memories to inject
+client = with_fast_memory(
+ OpenAI(),
+ user_id="alice",
+ top_k=10, # Inject up to 10 relevant memories
+)
+```
+
+---
+
+## Multi-User Isolation
+
+Memories are isolated by `user_id`:
+
+```python
+# Alice's memories
+alice_client = with_fast_memory(OpenAI(), user_id="alice")
+
+# Bob's memories (completely separate)
+bob_client = with_fast_memory(OpenAI(), user_id="bob")
+
+# Agent memories
+agent_client = with_fast_memory(OpenAI(), user_id="agent-researcher")
+```
+
+---
+
+## How Memory Enables Compression
+
+Memory is *temporal compression*. Instead of carrying full conversation history:
+
+```
+WITHOUT MEMORY:
+Context = Turn 1 + Turn 2 + ... + Turn 50 = 10,000 tokens
+
+WITH MEMORY:
+Context = 5 relevant memories = 100 tokens
+Compression ratio: 100x
+```
+
+This lets you use aggressive rolling window truncation while preserving important facts.
+
+```python
+from headroom.memory import with_fast_memory
+from headroom.transforms import RollingWindowTransform
+
+# Memory + aggressive truncation = best of both worlds
+client = with_fast_memory(OpenAI(), user_id="alice")
+transform = RollingWindowTransform(max_tokens=4000)
+
+# Old messages get truncated, but key facts live in memory
+messages = transform.apply(very_long_conversation)
+response = client.chat.completions.create(model="gpt-4o", messages=messages)
+```
+
+---
+
+## Performance
+
+| Operation | Latency | Notes |
+|-----------|---------|-------|
+| Memory injection | <50ms | Local embeddings + vector search |
+| Memory extraction | +50-100ms | Part of LLM response (inline) |
+| Memory storage | <10ms | SQLite write + cache update |
+
+**Overhead**: ~100 extra output tokens per response for the `` block.
+
+---
+
+## Providers
+
+Memory works with any OpenAI-compatible client:
+
+```python
+from openai import OpenAI
+from anthropic import Anthropic
+from groq import Groq
+
+# OpenAI
+client = with_fast_memory(OpenAI(), user_id="alice")
+
+# Anthropic (via OpenAI-compatible wrapper)
+client = with_fast_memory(OpenAI(base_url="..."), user_id="alice")
+
+# Groq
+client = with_fast_memory(Groq(), user_id="alice")
+
+# Any OpenAI-compatible client
+client = with_fast_memory(YourClient(), user_id="alice")
+```
+
+---
+
+## Example: Multi-Turn Conversation
+
+```python
+from openai import OpenAI
+from headroom.memory import with_fast_memory
+
+client = with_fast_memory(OpenAI(), user_id="developer_jane")
+
+# Conversation 1: User shares context
+response = client.chat.completions.create(
+ model="gpt-4o",
+ messages=[{
+ "role": "user",
+ "content": "I'm a Python developer at a fintech startup. We use PostgreSQL."
+ }]
+)
+# Memories extracted: "Python developer", "fintech startup", "uses PostgreSQL"
+
+# Conversation 2 (new session): User asks question
+response = client.chat.completions.create(
+ model="gpt-4o",
+ messages=[{
+ "role": "user",
+ "content": "What database should I use for my new project?"
+ }]
+)
+# Response references PostgreSQL preference from memory
+print(response.choices[0].message.content)
+# → "Given your experience with PostgreSQL at your fintech company..."
+```
+
+---
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Memories not being extracted
+
+1. Check if the conversation has memory-worthy content (not just greetings)
+2. Verify the LLM is following the memory instruction
+3. Check logs for parsing errors
+
+### Memories not being retrieved
+
+1. Verify `user_id` matches between sessions
+2. Check if memories exist: `client.memory.get_all()`
+3. Try a more specific search query
+
+### High latency
+
+1. Switch to local embeddings: `use_local_embeddings=True`
+2. Reduce `top_k` for fewer memories to retrieve
+3. Check database size and consider pruning old memories
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Use consistent `user_id`** - Same ID across sessions for continuity
+2. **Start with local embeddings** - Faster, free, good enough for most cases
+3. **Combine with rolling window** - Memory + truncation = aggressive compression
+4. **Monitor memory growth** - Periodically review and prune if needed
+5. **Use categories** - Helps with debugging and selective retrieval
