# Create a Nucleus memory manually

> Creates a memory of source type `explicit` (user-asserted fact). The memory is automatically embedded for semantic search.

Use this when the agent learns something important during a conversation that should persist across sessions.

  title: Audity Agent API
  version: 1.0.0
  summary: >-
    The agent-facing surface of Audity AI: projects, leads, Nucleus, and
    account.
  description: >-
    Audity is a B2B SaaS for consultants who run automated business audits. This
    API is the agent-facing slice: a deliberately small set of task-shaped
    endpoints that lets external AI agents (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, n8n) act on
    a consultant's Audity workspace on their behalf.


    **Authentication:** Bearer token (`aky_...`) issued from
    `https://app.auditynow.com/dashboard/settings/api-tokens`. The middleware
    resolves the token to a Clerk user identity; tier and Row-Level Security
    gates apply automatically.


    **Rate limits:** reads 100/min, writes 20/min, async job polling 120/min;
    some expensive or high-volume endpoints have stricter caps. 429 responses
    include `Retry-After`.


    **Tier gating:** public plan names can change faster than API enum names.
    Use `GET /api/user/tier` and any `requiredTier` field in 403 responses as
    the source of truth for a specific account. Read-only or
    lead-generation-focused plans can read available data; audit-capable paid
    plans unlock writes, subject to token scope and credits.

        reads succeed if the token has `read` OR no explicit scopes).

        - The PAT is hitting an endpoint the agent allowlist excludes (rare on
        Nucleus).


        Branch on the `code` field: `PAT_SCOPE_INSUFFICIENT` for scope errors,
        otherwise treat as Nucleus disabled.
