Profile Generation

Profiles are automatically generated when:

• User has stored at least 5 memories
• At least 24 hours have passed since last generation
• User explicitly requests refresh with refresh=true

Generation typically takes 5-15 seconds depending on memory count.

Privacy Controls

Use the Update Profile Privacy endpoint to modify which parts of the profile are public or can be shared with integrations.
