Memory
Custom Memory Creation
This example demonstrates how to create user memories with an Agent by providing either text or a list of messages. The Agent uses a custom memory manager to capture and store relevant details.
Code

Memories should only include details about the user's academic interests.
Only include which subjects they are interested in.
Ignore names, hobbies, and personal interests.
