@octamem/octamem-openclaw

OctaMem personal memory plugin for OpenClaw. Adds search/add tools and automatic memory recall and capture so the assistant can use and update your personal memory.

Requirements

• OpenClaw >=2026.1.29
• OctaMem API key (personal memory)

Install

From the OpenClaw plugins list:

openclaw plugins install @octamem/octamem-openclaw

Configure

Get your API key from platform.octamem.com. Then set it:

openclaw octamem configure <your-api-key>

Or set OCTAMEM_PERSONAL_KEY and run:

openclaw octamem configure

Restart OpenClaw after configuring.

What it does

• Auto-recall: Before each turn, relevant personal memory is fetched and injected so the LLM can answer from your notes.
• Auto-capture: After each turn, the assistant’s reply is stored in your personal memory (plain text).
• Tools: octamem_get (search) and octamem_add (add) for the agent to query or store memory when needed.
• CLI: openclaw octamem status | search <query> | details | add <content>.

Use only OctaMem (disable local/file memory)

openclaw octamem configure automatically adds tools.deny: ["memory_search", "memory_get"] to your OpenClaw config so only OctaMem is used (no core/file memory). No manual config edit needed.

If you ever need to set it yourself, add to ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json under "tools":

"tools": {
  "profile": "coding",
  "deny": ["memory_search", "memory_get"]
}

Restart OpenClaw after changing config.

Config (optional)

In OpenClaw plugin config you can set:

• memories.personal.apiKey — API key (supports ${OCTAMEM_PERSONAL_KEY}).
• toolDescription — Override the description for the get-memory tool.
