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 — this is your tenant ID used in all subsequent API calls.
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",
"tenantID": "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx"
}
}
}
}
}
Restart OpenClaw. You should see:
[mnemo] Server mode (tenant-scoped mem9 API)
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:
[mnemo] 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 qiffang/mnemos
/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 env var or tenantID in plugin config |
| Plugin not loading | Check platform-specific config format |
