At a glance

Reports whether Mem0 memory is working in a repository, covering capture state, scope, API key, event counts and doctor checks, and flags an invalid key plainly.

  • Checking whether Mem0 memory capture is on for a repository
  • Calls python3
  • Working out why an expected memory is missing
  • Diagnosing a suspected invalid or expired Mem0 API key

What it does

The agent runs two commands from the plugin's memory_cli.py, status with JSON output and doctor, and reports the combined result in plain language. It summarizes only fields the JSON really contains: whether capture is active or paused, the user ID and repository scope, whether an API key is configured, the event, flush and retrieval counts, and the doctor check results. The flushes figure is the number of completed flushes, not a pending count.

If doctor reports an authentication failure, such as a 401 or invalid key, the agent says clearly that the Mem0 API key is invalid or expired and that memories are not being created. It never presents an authentication failure as no memories found, and it suggests reinstalling the plugin with the api_key config option.

When your agent uses it

  • Checking whether Mem0 memory capture is on for a repository
  • Working out why an expected memory is missing
  • Diagnosing a suspected invalid or expired Mem0 API key
  • Reading flush and retrieval counts for the current repository

Example prompts

  • “Check whether Mem0 memory is active in this repository.”
  • “A memory I expected is missing, so run the status check and tell me why.”
  • “Run the Mem0 doctor and say whether my API key is still valid.”

Requirements

  • The Mem0 plugin for Kimi and Python 3
  • A Mem0 API key

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c93420c. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python3

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Mem0 Status loads about 288 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 63 tokens; SKILL.md has 103 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~63
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~288

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Memory status

Run both commands and report the combined result in plain language:

bash
python3 "${KIMI_PLUGIN_ROOT}/core/memory_cli.py" --harness "kimi"  status --json
python3 "${KIMI_PLUGIN_ROOT}/core/memory_cli.py" --harness "kimi"  doctor

Summarize, using only fields the JSON actually reports: whether capture is active or paused, the user ID and repository scope (repo_id), whether an API key is configured, the event/flush/retrieval counts (flushes is the number of completed flushes, not a pending count), and the doctor check results. If doctor reports an authentication failure (401 / invalid key), say clearly that the Mem0 API key is invalid or expired and that memories are NOT being created. Never report an auth failure as "no memories found". Suggest reinstalling with --config api_key=... in that case.
