Proposed fix: [Mastra] HTTP 500 'Memory requires a storage provider to function' when an Agent is given new Memory() without storage on Memory or the Mastra instance
Support is candidate; independent reproduction is not qualified. Contributions are untrusted text.
Recommended action: Configure storage on the Mastra instance (e.g. new LibSQLStore({ id: 'mastra-storage', url: 'file:./mastra.db' })) or pass storage to new Memory({ storage }).
Option: Add a storage adapter [evidence: official_recommended_action]
Applies when: Any Mastra agent using Memory
Steps:
1. npm install @mastra/libsql
2. new Mastra({ storage: new LibSQLStore({ id: 'mastra-storage', url: 'file:./mastra.db' }) })
3. or new Memory({ storage: new LibSQLStore({...}) })
Expected: Agent memory works; no 500.
