Agent memory gives AI agents four kinds of memory. Working memory is a scratchpad of key and value pairs for a task in progress, grouped by session. `AMEM.WORK.LIST` returns the keys stored in the session, in no
particular order.

## Return value

| Case | RESP2 | RESP3 |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Always | Array of bulk strings (empty for an unknown session) | Same |

Errors:

- `ERR wrong number of arguments for 'amem.work.list' command` if the argument count is wrong.
- `NOLICENSE agent-memory requires a HotKV license. Contact sales@hotkv.com` if your license does not include the `agent-memory` feature.
