Memory Engine

Your agent remembers everything. Automatically.

What It Does

Two hooks passively capture every conversation. No "let me save that" — memory just happens.

User sends message → hook auto-stores fact + graph triple + embedding
Agent replies      → hook auto-stores reply (deduped)

Plus 20 tools for search, graph traversal, episode recall, reflection, quality management, backup, and dashboard.

Install

openclaw plugins install @icex-labs/openclaw-memory-engine
bash ~/.openclaw/extensions/memory-engine/setup.sh
openclaw gateway restart

Setup handles: interactive core memory, legacy data migration, quality pass, maintenance crons, agent instruction patching. One command.

Architecture

Hooks (passive)    → auto-capture messages into archival
Layer 1: Core      → ~500 tokens identity block
Layer 2: Archival  → unlimited facts, 5-signal hybrid search
Layer 3: Graph     → entity relations, auto-extracted
Layer 4: Episodes  → conversation summaries
Layer 5: Reflection→ behavioral pattern analysis

Search

Five-signal hybrid ranking: keyword (2×) + embedding cosine similarity (5×) + recency + access frequency + importance with forgetting curve.

"Who treats my skin condition?" finds medical records even with zero keyword overlap.

Multi-Agent

Each agent gets isolated memory via ToolFactory pattern. Session key → agent ID → workspace. Zero config.

Self-Healing

• Missing embeddings → auto-backfill on restart
• Agent forgets to save → hooks capture passively
• Duplicates → 60s dedup window + weekly cron
• Flat importance → quality pass auto-rates
