# Store a Semantic Memory

`POST /v1/graphs/{graph_id}/operations/remember`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.robosystems.ai` (the document declares no server; this is the origin it was published from)
- URL: `https://api.robosystems.ai/v1/graphs/{graph_id}/operations/remember`
- Auth: one of:
  - API key in header `X-API-Key`
  - HTTP bearer

Store a semantic memory in the graph's per-graph memory store. The text is embedded locally; recall it later via `POST /memory/recall`.

**Idempotency**: supply an `Idempotency-Key` header to make safe retries; replays within 24 hours return the same envelope. Reusing the key with a different body returns HTTP 409 Conflict.

## Path parameters

- `graph_id` string, required

## Headers

- `Idempotency-Key` string, nullable

## Request body

- RememberOp: Body for the remember operation (write a semantic memory).
  - `text` string, required: Memory content
  - `source` string: Origin of the memory
  - `memory_type` string: Freeform classifier
  - `tags` string[], nullable: Optional labels
  - `source_ref` string, nullable: Optional external reference/URI
  - `provenance` object, nullable: Opaque provenance metadata

## Response `200`

Successful Response

- OperationEnvelope: Uniform response shape for every operation endpoint. Every dispatch carries an `op_<ULID>` operation_id, which is the bridge to the monitoring surface: pass it to `GET /v1/operations/{operation_id}/stream` (see `routers/operations.py`) to subscribe to SSE progress events. Sync commands complete in the envelope itself (`status: "completed"`, HTTP 200); async commands (`status: "pending"`, HTTP 202) hand off to a background worker and stream their tail through that SSE endpoint. Failed dispatches still mint an `operation_id` so the audit log and any partial SSE events stay correlatable. `TResult` parameterizes `result` so per-op response shapes surface in OpenAPI. Operations that pin `OperationSpec.result_type` get `OperationEnvelope[YourEnvelope]` as their response model; the rest keep the default `Any` shape (`result: any | null` on the wire).
  - `operation` string, required: Kebab-case operation name
  - `operationId` string, required: op_-prefixed ULID for audit and SSE correlation
  - `status` 'completed' | 'pending' | 'failed', required: Operation lifecycle state
  - `result` unknown
  - `at` string, required: ISO-8601 UTC timestamp
  - `createdBy` string, nullable: User ID that initiated the operation
  - `idempotentReplay` boolean: True when this envelope came from the idempotency cache — the underlying command did not execute again. False on fresh executions.
