Agent Memory Hack Night | Mastra x Elasticsearch

Build AI Agents That Remember Join Mastra and Elastic for a hands-on hack night exploring agent memory. Most AI agents start every conversation from scratch. They forget what a user told them, repeat suggestions that already failed, lose track of progress, and sometimes rely on outdated information instead of what happened most recently. At this hack night, you’ll build an agent that can use information from the past to make better decisions in the present. Your agent might remember: You’ll also explore an important memory challenge: not everything from the past should be treated equally. Recent information may be more relevant than older information, and a new decision may need to replace or outweigh an outdated one. After a short introduction and demo, we’ll spend the rest of the evening building. The stack Mastra Mastra is an open-source TypeScript framework for building AI agents. It handles the agent loop, tools, memory, and workflows, so you can focus on what your agent should do instead of wiring up LLM calls by hand. Elasticsearch Elasticsearch provides the retrieval and memory layer. You can use it as Mastra’s native vector store or explore hybrid search, which combines keyword and semantic matching to help your agent find the right context. What can you build? Build anything that becomes more useful when it can access relevant information or remember what happened before. A few ideas: Bring your own data, use one of our starter datasets, or begin with one of the examples provided. Developers, data practitioners, designers, product builders, and first-time agent builders are all welcome. No prior experience with Mastra or Elasticsearch is required. There will be food, drinks, prizes, and plenty of people available to help. Bring your laptop and your ideas. We’ll provide the tools and starter resources. How it works 5:00 PM - Doors openGrab food and drinks, meet other attendees, and get settled. 5:30 PM - Kickoff and demoWe’ll introduce the challenge, walk through the tools, and show a working example. 5:45 PM - Build timeChoose an idea and start building. Technical? Great. New to coding or AI agents? Also great. We’ll help you get set up and provide starter projects so you can begin quickly. 8:00 PM - Show and tellShare what you built with the room, no matter how finished it is. After the demos, we’ll award prizes to the top three projects. FAQ Where is the event?
