Reddit proposes an open agent memory format, citing OpenTelemetry as the model
madsthines · reddit · 2026-11-08
A Reddit developer notes the community reinvents agent memory layers weekly — each with its own storage, schema, and MCP tools, so lessons stay siloed. Drawing on how observability converged on OpenTelemetry, the author surveys existing approaches (AGENTS.md, Anthropic's memory tool, Copilot Memory, Letta, Mem0, LangGraph, Graphiti), sketches a shared record format, and invites others to shape an open standard to reduce vendor lock-in.
