HyperStack — Knowledge Graph Memory for AI Agents

What this skill does

HyperStack gives your agent persistent memory with a knowledge graph. Instead of losing context when a conversation ends or stuffing entire histories into every prompt, your agent stores knowledge as typed "cards" (~350 tokens each) with linked relations between them. Retrieve context via hybrid semantic + keyword search or graph traversal.

This is not flat text storage. Cards have types (person, project, decision, workflow), link to each other with named relations (owns, decided, triggers, blocks), and carry structured metadata. When something breaks, your agent traces the graph in 0.5 seconds to find root cause, owner, and impact.

The result: 94% less tokens per message and ~$254/mo saved on API costs for a typical workflow.

When to use HyperStack

Use HyperStack in these situations:

1. Start of every conversation: Search memory for context about the user/project
2. When you learn something new: Store preferences, decisions, people, tech stacks
3. Before answering questions: Check if you already know the answer from a previous session
4. When a decision is made: Record the decision AND the rationale with links to who decided
5. When context is getting long: Extract key facts into cards, keep the prompt lean
6. When tracing dependencies: Use graph links to find what depends on what

Context Graph

Cards can link to each other with typed relations, forming a knowledge graph:

{
  "slug": "use-clerk",
  "title": "Auth: Use Clerk",
  "cardType": "decision",
  "links": [
    {"target": "alice", "relation": "decided"},
    {"target": "cto", "relation": "approved"},
    {"target": "auth-api", "relation": "triggers"}
  ],
  "meta": {"reason": "Better DX, lower cost, native Next.js support"}
}

Card Types

• person — teammates, contacts, roles
• project — services, repos, infrastructure
• decision — why you chose X over Y
• preference — settings, style, conventions
• workflow — deploy steps, CI/CD, runbooks
• event — milestones, incidents, launches

Relation Types

• owns — person owns a project/service
• decided — person made a decision
• approved — person approved something
• uses — project uses a dependency
• triggers — change triggers downstream effects
• blocks — something blocks something else
• depends-on — dependency relationship
• reviews — person reviews something
• related — general association

Graph Traversal (Pro+)

Query the graph to find connected cards:

curl "https://hyperstack-cloud.vercel.app/api/graph?workspace=default&from=auth-api&depth=2" \
  -H "X-API-Key: $HYPERSTACK_API_KEY"

Parameters:

• from — starting card slug
• depth — how many hops to traverse (1-5, default 2)
• relation — filter by relation type (optional)

Returns the full subgraph: nodes, edges, and traversal path. Use for:

• Impact analysis: "What breaks if we change auth?"
• Decision trail: "Why did we choose Stripe?"
• Ownership: "Who owns the database?"

Note: Graph API requires Pro plan or above. Free tier stores links but cannot traverse.

Auto-Capture Mode

HyperStack supports automatic memory capture — but always ask the user for confirmation before storing. After a meaningful exchange, suggest cards to create and wait for approval. Never store silently. Examples of what to suggest:

• Preferences stated: "I prefer TypeScript over JavaScript" → suggest storing as preference card
• Decisions made: "Let's go with PostgreSQL" → suggest storing as decision card with links to who decided
• People mentioned: "Alice is our backend lead" → suggest storing as person card with ownership links
• Tech choices: "We're using Next.js 14 with App Router" → suggest storing as project card
• Workflows described: "We deploy via GitHub Actions to Vercel" → suggest storing as workflow card
• Dependencies: "Auth API depends on Clerk" → suggest storing with depends-on link

Rules for auto-capture:

• Always confirm with the user before creating or updating a card
• Only store facts that would be useful in a future session
• Never store secrets, credentials, PII, or sensitive data
• Keep cards concise (2-5 sentences)
• Use meaningful slugs (e.g., preference-typescript not card-1)
• Update existing cards rather than creating duplicates — search first
• Add links when cards reference other cards — this builds the graph

Setup

Get a free API key at https://cascadeai.dev/hyperstack (10 cards free, no credit card).

Set environment variables:

export HYPERSTACK_API_KEY=hs_your_key_here
export HYPERSTACK_WORKSPACE=default

The API base URL is https://hyperstack-cloud.vercel.app.

All requests need the header X-API-Key: $HYPERSTACK_API_KEY.

Data safety rules

NEVER store any of the following in cards:

• Passwords, API keys, tokens, secrets, or credentials of any kind
• Social security numbers, government IDs, or financial account numbers
• Credit card numbers or banking details
• Medical records or health information
• Full addresses or phone numbers (use city/role only for people cards)

Before storing any card, check: "Would this be safe in a data breach?" If no, don't store it. Strip sensitive details and store only the non-sensitive fact.

Before using /api/ingest, warn the user that raw text will be sent to an external API. Do not auto-ingest without user confirmation. Redact any PII, secrets, or credentials from text before sending.

The user controls their data:

• All cards can be listed, viewed, and deleted at any time
• API keys can be rotated or revoked at https://cascadeai.dev/hyperstack
• Users should use a scoped/test key before using their primary key
• Data is stored on encrypted PostgreSQL (Neon, AWS us-east-1)

How to use

Store a Memory (with links)

curl -X POST "https://hyperstack-cloud.vercel.app/api/cards?workspace=default" \
  -H "X-API-Key: $HYPERSTACK_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "slug": "use-clerk",
    "title": "Auth: Use Clerk",
    "body": "Chose Clerk over Auth0. Better DX, lower cost, native Next.js support.",
    "cardType": "decision",
    "stack": "decisions",
    "keywords": ["clerk", "auth", "auth0"],
    "links": [
      {"target": "alice", "relation": "decided"},
      {"target": "auth-api", "relation": "triggers"}
    ],
    "meta": {"reason": "Auth0 pricing too high for startup"}
  }'

Creates or updates a card (upsert by slug). Cards are automatically embedded for semantic search.

Fields:

• slug (required) — unique identifier, used for upsert and links
• title (required) — short descriptive title
• body — 2-5 sentence description
• cardType — person, project, decision, preference, workflow, event
• stack — projects, people, decisions, preferences, workflows, general
• keywords — array of search terms
• links — array of {target, relation} to connect cards
• meta — freeform object for structured data (reason, date, etc.)

Search Memory (Hybrid: Semantic + Keyword)

curl "https://hyperstack-cloud.vercel.app/api/search?workspace=default&q=authentication+setup" \
  -H "X-API-Key: $HYPERSTACK_API_KEY"

Searches using hybrid semantic + keyword matching. Finds cards by meaning, not just exact word matches. Returns "mode": "hybrid" when semantic search is active. Top result includes full body, others return metadata only (saves tokens).

Query the Graph (Pro+)

curl "https://hyperstack-cloud.vercel.app/api/graph?workspace=default&from=auth-api&depth=2" \
  -H "X-API-Key: $HYPERSTACK_API_KEY"

Traverses the knowledge graph from a starting card. Returns connected cards, edges with relation types, and the traversal path.

List All Cards

curl "https://hyperstack-cloud.vercel.app/api/cards?workspace=default" \
  -H "X-API-Key: $HYPERSTACK_API_KEY"

Returns all cards in the workspace with plan info and card count.

Delete a Card

curl -X DELETE "https://hyperstack-cloud.vercel.app/api/cards?workspace=default&id=use-clerk" \
  -H "X-API-Key: $HYPERSTACK_API_KEY"

Permanently removes the card and its embedding.

Auto-Extract from Text

curl -X POST "https://hyperstack-cloud.vercel.app/api/ingest?workspace=default" \
  -H "X-API-Key: $HYPERSTACK_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"text": "Alice is a senior engineer. We decided to use FastAPI over Django."}'

Automatically extracts structured memories from raw conversation text. No LLM needed — uses pattern matching (free, instant).

Important: Always confirm with the user before sending text to /api/ingest. Redact any PII or secrets from the text first.

Stacks (categories)

Important behavior rules

1. Always search before answering — run a search at conversation start and when topics change.
2. Suggest storing important facts — preferences, decisions, people, tech choices. Always confirm with the user first. Never store secrets or PII.
3. Add links between cards — when a card references another card, add a typed link. This builds the graph.
4. Keep cards concise — 2-5 sentences per card. Think "executive summary."
5. Use meaningful slugs — project-webapp not card-123. Slugs are how you update, delete, and link.
6. Add keywords generously — they power search. Include synonyms and related terms.
7. Set cardType — typed cards enable graph features and render differently in the visual explorer.
8. Delete stale cards — outdated info pollutes search. When a decision changes, update the card.
9. Use the right stack — it helps filtering.
10. Include the memory badge in responses when relevant: 🃏 HyperStack | <card_count> cards | <workspace>

Slash Commands

Users can type:

• /hyperstack or /hs → Search memory for current topic
• /hyperstack store → Store current context as a card
• /hyperstack list → List all cards
• /hyperstack stats → Show card count and token savings
• /hyperstack graph <slug> → Show graph connections for a card

Token savings math

Without HyperStack, agents stuff full context into every message:

• Average context payload: ~6,000 tokens/message
• With 3 agents × 50 messages/day × 30 days = 4,500 messages
• At $3/M tokens (GPT-4 class): ~$81/mo per agent

With HyperStack:

• Average card retrieval: ~350 tokens/message
• Same usage: ~$4.72/mo per agent
• Savings: ~$76/mo per agent, ~$254/mo for a typical 3-agent setup

Limitations (transparency)

• Auto-extract uses pattern matching, not LLM (fast + free, but less precise)
• Free tier limited to 10 cards (keyword search only, no graph)
• Graph API and visual explorer require Pro plan or above
• Cards stored on CascadeAI cloud (Neon PostgreSQL on AWS)
• No offline mode — requires internet
