mnemos Setup

Persistent memory for AI agents. This skill helps you set up mnemos with any agent platform.

Prerequisites

You need a running mnemo-server instance. See the server README for deployment instructions.

Step 1: Deploy mnemo-server

cd mnemos/server
MNEMO_DSN="user:pass@tcp(host:4000)/mnemos?parseTime=true" go run ./cmd/mnemo-server

Step 2: Provision a tenant

curl -s -X POST http://localhost:8080/v1alpha1/mem9s | jq .
# → { "id": "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx", "claim_url": "..." }

Save the returned id.

For OpenClaw, this is the value you should store as apiKey (preferred).
Legacy OpenClaw config can still store the same value as tenantID, but the plugin will still use v1alpha2.
For Claude Code / OpenCode env vars, this remains the tenant ID value used by the current server API.

Step 3: Configure your agent platform

Pick your platform and follow the instructions:

OpenClaw

Add to openclaw.json:

{
  "plugins": {
    "slots": { "memory": "mnemo" },
    "entries": {
      "mnemo": {
        "enabled": true,
        "config": {
          "apiUrl": "http://localhost:8080",
          "apiKey": "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Restart OpenClaw. You should see:

[mem9] Server mode (v1alpha2)

Compatibility note:

Preferred config: apiKey -> plugin uses v1alpha2 with X-API-Key.
Legacy config: tenantID -> plugin treats it as an alias for apiKey and still uses v1alpha2.
The underlying value is the same UUID either way.

OpenCode

Set environment variables (add to shell profile or .env):

export MNEMO_API_URL="http://localhost:8080"
export MNEMO_TENANT_ID="xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx"

Add to opencode.json:

{
  "plugin": ["mnemo-opencode"]
}

Restart OpenCode. You should see:

[mem9] Server mode (mnemo-server REST API)

Claude Code

Add to ~/.claude/settings.json:

{
  "env": {
    "MNEMO_API_URL": "http://localhost:8080",
    "MNEMO_TENANT_ID": "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx"
  }
}

Install plugin:

/plugin marketplace add mem9-ai/mem9
/plugin install mnemo-memory@mnemos

Restart Claude Code.

Verification

After setup, test memory:

Ask your agent: "Remember that the project uses PostgreSQL 15"
Start a new session
Ask: "What database does this project use?"

The agent should recall the information from memory.

Troubleshooting

Problem	Fix
`No MNEMO_API_URL configured`	Set `MNEMO_API_URL` env var or `apiUrl` in plugin config
`MNEMO_TENANT_ID is not set`	Set `MNEMO_TENANT_ID` for env-based clients, or use `apiKey` (preferred) / legacy `tenantID` in OpenClaw plugin config
Plugin not loading	Check platform-specific config format
