Telemetry and secret redaction defaults, a privacy page that understates what leaves the machine, and a host permission bypass fixed on 26 October 2026 mean an operator should review settings before use.\n\n**Zep.** Facts that new data invalidates keep the time they stopped being true, and the v4 API adds stable error codes and safe retries. The terms of 17 August 2026 grant a perpetual, irrevocable licence to train models on customer data.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### claude-mem\n\n1. Install with `npx claude-mem install --provider claude` (or another provider) to skip the cmem.ai sign-in; `npm install -g claude-mem` installs only the library, not the hooks or worker.\n2. Set `CLAUDE_MEM_REDACT_ENABLED=true` before capturing sessions that print keys or tokens, and wrap sensitive prompt text in `\u003cprivate\u003e` tags.\n3. Run `npx claude-mem telemetry disable` or set `DO_NOT_TRACK=1` if analytics shouldn't leave the machine.\n4. Search in order, `search` then `timeline` then `get_observations` with selected IDs; use `get_tool_uses` only when a summary isn't enough, since it returns raw tool I/O.\n5. Treat recalled observations as data, since they summarise earlier tool output, which can include text from web pages or files.\n\n### Zep\n\n1. Use the 4.0 SDKs and store the UUID each create call returns. v4 calls take Zep UUIDs, not your own user or thread IDs\n2. Set `return_context` when adding messages to skip a second round trip\n3. Keep episodes short. Every 350 bytes past the first costs another credit\n4. Branch on `error.code`. On a 429, wait for Retry-After with jitter. Free accounts over quota drop to 5 requests a minute\n5. Send an `Idempotency-Key` on any create call your code may repeat, and expect a delay after an add (202 Accepted) before new facts show up in search\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, claude-mem or Zep?\n\nZep scores 74 (BB) on agent readiness against claude-mem's 58.6 (C), and leads in 6 of 7 scored categories. claude-mem leads on reliability.\n\n### Do claude-mem and Zep need an API key?\n\nBoth take an API key or an OAuth sign-in.\n\n### Can an agent call claude-mem and Zep without installing anything?\n\nclaude-mem runs on your own machine, with no hosted endpoint listed. Zep has a hosted endpoint at https://api.getzep.com/api/v4.\n\n### Are claude-mem and Zep open source?\n\nclaude-mem is open source (Apache-2.0 for the engine, CLI, worker, MCP tools, adapters and docs. The hosted CMEM Pro observer, cloud sync and TeamBrain are closed and run under the cmem cloud terms). No open-source release is listed for Zep.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/claude-mem-vs-zep.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/claude-mem-vs-zep.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"claude-mem\", \"b\": \"zep\"}`.
