    memory_type="episodic",
    tags=["user-action", "timing", "demo"]
)
```

### Semantic Memories  
General facts and preferences.
```python
await store_memory(
    content="User prefers dark mode for reduced eye strain",
    memory_type="semantic",
    tags=["preference", "ui", "health"]
)
```

### Procedural Memories
Step-by-step instructions.
```python
await store_memory(
    content="To enable dark mode: Settings → Appearance → Dark",
    memory_type="procedural", 
    tags=["instructions", "ui"]
)
```

## 🔍 Search Examples

### Semantic Search (Recommended)
```python
# Finds memories by meaning, not just keywords
results = await search_memories(
    query="user interface preferences and accessibility",
    search_type="semantic",
    max_results=10
)
```

### Keyword Search
```python
# Fast exact text matching
results = await search_memories(
    query="dark mode",
    search_type="keyword"
)
```

### Graph Traversal
```python
# Find connected memories through relationships
connections = await find_connected_memories(
    memory_id="preference_memory_id",
    max_depth=3,
    min_strength=0.5
)
```

## 🔧 Configuration

### Environment Variables
```env
# Database location
KUZU_DB_PATH=./memory_graph_db

# Ollama server configuration  
OLLAMA_BASE_URL=http://localhost:11434

# Primary embedding model (best balance)
ollama pull nomic-embed-text       # 274MB, excellent quality

# Summary model (optional but recommended)  
ollama pull llama3.2:1b           # 1.3GB, fast summaries
```

### Alternative Models
```bash
# Faster, smaller (if resources are limited)
ollama pull all-minilm            # 23MB, decent quality

# Higher quality (if you have resources)
ollama pull mxbai-embed-large     # 669MB, best quality
```

## ⚡ Performance & Resource Usage

### System Requirements
- **Minimum**: 4GB RAM, 2 CPU cores, 2GB storage
- **Recommended**: 8GB RAM, 4 CPU cores, 5GB storage  
- **Operating System**: Linux, macOS, Windows

### Performance Characteristics
- **First Request**: ~2-3 seconds (model loading)
- **Subsequent Requests**: ~500-800ms per embedding
- **Memory Usage**: ~1.5GB RAM resident
- **CPU Usage**: ~20% during embedding, ~0% idle

### Optimization Tips
1. **Keep Ollama running** - Avoid model reload overhead
2. **Use SSD storage** - Faster model loading
3. **Batch operations** - Group multiple memories for efficiency
4. **Monitor resources** - `htop` to check RAM/CPU usage

## 🚨 Troubleshooting

### Common Issues

1. **"Connection refused"**
   ```bash
   # Start Ollama server
   ollama serve
   
   # Check if running  
   ps aux | grep ollama
   ```

2. **"Model not found"**
   ```bash
   # List available models
   ollama list
   
   # Pull required model
   ollama pull nomic-embed-text
   ```

3. **Slow performance**
   ```bash
   # Check system resources
   htop
   
   # Try smaller model
   ollama pull all-minilm
   ```

4. **Out of memory**
   ```bash
   # Use minimal model
   ollama pull all-minilm
   
   # Check memory usage
   free -h
   ```

### Debug Commands
```bash
# Test Ollama directly
curl http://localhost:11434/api/tags

# Test embedding generation
curl http://localhost:11434/api/embeddings \
  -d '{"model": "nomic-embed-text", "prompt": "test"}'

# Check server logs
journalctl -u ollama -f  # if running as service
```

## 🔒 Security & Privacy

### Complete Data Privacy
- **No External Calls** - Everything runs locally
- **No Telemetry** - Ollama doesn't phone home
- **Your Hardware** - You control the infrastructure
- **Audit Trail** - Full visibility into operations

### Recommended Security Practices
1. **Firewall Rules** - Block external access to Ollama port
2. **Regular Updates** - Keep Ollama and models updated
3. **Backup Strategy** - Regular backups of memory_graph_db
4. **Access Control** - Limit who can access the server

```

### Performance Monitoring
```bash
# Resource usage
htop

# Disk usage
du -sh memory_graph_db/
