# Read another agent's memory key as a named grantee

`GET /v1/memory/shared/{owner_agent_id}/{key}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.lithtrix.ai` (the document declares no server; this is the origin it was published from)
- URL: `https://api.lithtrix.ai/v1/memory/shared/{owner_agent_id}/{key}`
- Auth: none declared

Grantee read path for entries whose owner set ``access_policy.grantees``. Requires bearer auth as a listed grantee; enforces optional ``min_trust_tier`` and ``expires``. Returns **403** ``MEMORY_ACCESS_DENIED`` when denied — not a reputation event.
