I build agents on top of claude and opus 5.5 slaps it’s seriously the smartest thing I’ve worked with but the memory is so bad it’s unbelievable. Every session starts from zero doesn’t matter what happened in the user’s last session and the agent has to learn the user’s entire context from basics again every time. system prompts and context loading work for static stuff but it’s just manually rebuilding the window every session and its not scalable when you have users. and mid session it’s perfect like the agent holds context and tracks the conversation and makes the right decisions but then 20 30 turns later it starts losing things the user said at the top of the conversation and in the same chat not even a new session. I had to go through a number of memory SDKs that handle entity resolution and typed extraction properly trying to fix this on the infra side but the point is I shouldn’t have to plug in third party memory layer to make agents built on claude remember the user’s data. submitted by /u/Ayan-0709
