Quick health check: is Nowledge Mem running, reachable, and configured correctly?
Command
nmem --json status
Interpretation
- If healthy, report briefly (mode, server version, memory count) and continue.
- If unreachable, suggest checking:
- Local mode: Is the Nowledge Mem desktop app running?
- Remote mode: Is
~/.nowledge-mem/config.jsonconfigured correctly? - Auth errors: Is the API key valid?
When to use
- Memory commands are returning errors.
- User asks "is Mem working?" or similar.
- First time using Nowledge Mem in a new environment.
- After changing configuration.
