What is it?

Zep is a context engineering platform for AI assistant apps. It persists chat histories, asynchronously generates summaries and other artifacts from them, and embeds messages and summaries so the app can search for relevant past context.

This package is the official Python client for the Zep Cloud APIs. It exposes synchronous and async clients, typed responses, paginated list methods, streaming queries, and configurable retries, timeouts and custom httpx clients. The library is generated programmatically, and the project notes that direct contributions to the code will be overwritten on the next generated release.

A typical prompt built with Zep combines a few recent messages, a summary of earlier conversation, and summaries or messages retrieved from the wider session history.

Key features

  • 01Persists chat histories and generates summaries asynchronously.
  • 02Embeds messages and summaries for semantic search over past context.
  • 03Provides sync and async clients with typed responses.
  • 04Supports paginated listing and streaming query responses.
  • 05Offers configurable retries, timeouts and custom httpx clients.

Use cases

  • Giving a customer support agent memory of earlier conversations with the same user.
  • Injecting relevant past messages or summaries into an LLM prompt.
  • Building agents that reason over both chat history and business data.

Quick start

  1. 1

    Install the Zep Cloud SDK from PyPI

    pip install zep-cloud
  2. 2

    Create a client with your Zep Project API key and call the API

Things to know

  • Requires a Zep Cloud project API key, so it depends on a hosted paid service.
  • The SDK code is generated programmatically, so direct contributions are generally not merged.
