SKILL.md

Status

Quick diagnostic for Nowledge Mem connectivity and configuration.

When to Use

  • User asks "is my memory working?" or "check status"
  • Memory operations are failing or returning errors
  • After initial setup to verify everything is connected
  • When switching between local and remote mode

Usage

bash
nmem --json status

This shows:

  • Connection: whether the Nowledge Mem server is reachable
  • Server version: which version of the backend is running
  • CLI version: which version of nmem is installed
  • Mode: local or remote (with API URL)
  • Database: whether the knowledge graph is connected

Troubleshooting

If status fails:

  • Ensure the Nowledge Mem desktop app is running, or start the server manually
  • Check that nmem is installed: pip install nmem-cli or use uvx --from nmem-cli nmem
  • For remote mode, verify ~/.nowledge-mem/config.json has correct apiUrl and apiKey

Native Plugin

These skills work in any agent via CLI. For auto-recall, auto-capture, and graph tools, check if your agent has a native Nowledge Mem plugin — run the check-integration skill or see https://mem.nowledge.co/docs/integrations

save-handoff

Save a concise handoff summary only when the user explicitly requests it. Use this for resumable progress notes in generic agent environments where a real session importer is not guaranteed.

save-thread

Deprecated compatibility skill. In generic npx skills environments this must degrade honestly to a resumable handoff, because real transcript-backed thread import is not guaranteed. Prefer save-handoff here, and use native integrations when you need actual session capture.
