Seek And Analyze Video

Seek and analyze video content using Memories.ai's Large Visual Memory Model. Use when the user wants to (1) find or search for videos on TikTok, YouTube, or Instagram by topic, hashtag, or creator, (2) analyze, summarize, or ask questions about a video from a URL, (3) research social media content trends, influencers, or viral patterns, (4) summarize meetings, lectures, or webinars from recordings and extract notes or action items, (5) build a searchable knowledge base from video content and text memories, (6) analyze or describe images with AI vision, (7) store and retrieve text knowledge with semantic search, or (8) import and index social media content into a personal video library.

File contents

Seek and Analyze Video

Find, analyze, and build knowledge from video content via the Memories.ai API.

Setup

Require a Memories.ai API key before proceeding. If MEMORIES_API_KEY is not set, instruct the user:

Sign up at https://memories.ai (free tier available)
Get API key at https://memories.ai/app/service/key
Set environment variable: export MEMORIES_API_KEY="your-key-here"

Optionally set MEMORIES_UNIQUE_ID to isolate data by project (default: "default").

Run all commands via:

python scripts/memories_api.py <command> [args...]

Workflow Router

Determine which workflow to follow based on user intent:

User intent	Workflow	Reference
Shares a video URL with a question, or asks to analyze/summarize a video	Video Q&A	references/video_qa.md
Asks about trends on TikTok/YouTube/Instagram, or wants to analyze influencers	Social Research	references/social_research.md
Asks to summarize a meeting, take notes from a lecture, or extract action items	Video Notes	references/video_notes.md
Asks to build a knowledge base, or query across multiple videos	Knowledge Base	references/knowledge_base.md
Asks to describe an image or do a quick one-shot video analysis	Quick Caption (below)	--
Asks to remember/store something, or retrieve a previous note	Memory Management (below)	--

Default to Video Q&A if a URL is present, or Memory Management if no media is involved.

Quick Caption

Analyze a video or image without uploading to the library:

# Analyze video
python scripts/memories_api.py caption_video "<URL>" "<QUESTION>"

# Analyze image
python scripts/memories_api.py caption_image "<URL>" "<QUESTION>"

# Enable reasoning mode for complex analysis
python scripts/memories_api.py caption_video "<URL>" "<QUESTION>" --think

Memory Management

Store and retrieve text knowledge with semantic search:

# Store a memory
python scripts/memories_api.py memory_add "content to remember" --tags "tag1,tag2"

# Search memories semantically
python scripts/memories_api.py memory_search "query"

# List all memories
python scripts/memories_api.py memory_list

# Query across all videos and memories simultaneously
python scripts/memories_api.py chat_personal "question about stored knowledge"

Key Concepts

Video numbers (VI...): Unique identifiers for indexed videos returned from upload/import operations.
chat_personal: Query across ALL videos and memories simultaneously via MAG (Memory Augmented Generation). Prefer for cross-content questions.
chat_video: Query a specific video. Use when the user refers to a particular video.
caption_video/caption_image: One-shot analysis without uploading. Fast but not persistent.
Processing: Videos require time to index after upload. Use wait to block or video_info to poll.
Tags: Use consistently to organize content for filtered searches.
--session-id: Pass the same integer across multiple chat calls to maintain conversation context.

Error Handling

Error	Meaning	Action
API Error 0402	Out of credits	Inform user to check credits at memories.ai/app/service/key
API Error 0429	Rate limited	Wait 3-5 seconds, retry once
No API key	MEMORIES_API_KEY not set	Guide user through setup above
Video stuck UNPARSE	Still processing	Use `wait` or check later; long videos need more time
Empty chat response	Usually credit issue	Check credits; try `chat_personal` as fallback
