​
Agent Skills

Mem0 ships two kinds of skills for AI coding assistants. Both work with Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Windsurf, OpenCode, OpenClaw, and any assistant that supports the skills standard.

​
Reference skills — always on

Teach your assistant Mem0’s SDK surface so it writes correct code in everyday development: 
npx skills add https://github.com/mem0ai/mem0 --skill mem0
npx skills add https://github.com/mem0ai/mem0 --skill mem0-cli
npx skills add https://github.com/mem0ai/mem0 --skill mem0-vercel-ai-sdk
  • mem0 — Python and TypeScript SDKs (Platform + OSS), plus framework integrations (LangChain, CrewAI, OpenAI Agents, LangGraph, LlamaIndex, etc.)
  • mem0-cli — terminal workflows for the mem0 CLI (both Node and Python builds)
  • mem0-vercel-ai-sdk — @mem0/vercel-ai-provider and createMem0

​
Pipeline skills — run on demand

Let your assistant execute an end-to-end workflow in an existing repo. Invoked as slash commands: 
npx skills add https://github.com/mem0ai/mem0 --skill mem0-integrate
npx skills add https://github.com/mem0ai/mem0 --skill mem0-test-integration
  • /mem0-integrate — wire Mem0 into an existing repository using a goal-driven, test-first pipeline. Detects the stack, asks whether to use Platform or OSS, writes failing tests first, and keeps the integration additive and feature-flagged.
  • /mem0-test-integration — verify what /mem0-integrate produced. Runs the repo’s native test suite and a real end-to-end smoke flow against your API key, then produces a scorecard.
See the skills index for the full catalog.

​
MCP Server Setup

Connect Claude, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code, OpenCode, or any MCP-compatible client to Mem0. Get your API key from app.mem0.ai, then add Mem0 MCP with a single command: 
npx mcp-add \
  --name mem0-mcp \
  --type http \
  --url "https://mcp.mem0.ai/mcp" \
  --clients "claude,claude code,cursor,windsurf,vscode,opencode"
For per-client setup and advanced options, see Mem0 MCP Setup.

I want to start building with Mem0 — a self-improving memory layer for LLM
applications that gives agents persistent context across sessions.

**What Mem0 Does:**
Mem0 is a memory layer for AI apps — managed (Mem0 Platform) or self-hosted
(Open Source). It stores, retrieves, and manages user memories so agents
remember preferences, learn from interactions, and personalize over time.
Sub-50ms retrieval. Storage: vector embeddings.

**Architecture Overview:**
- Memory is scoped by user_id, agent_id, or run_id
- Core operations: add, search, update, delete
- Memory types: factual (preferences, facts), episodic (past interactions),
  semantic (concept relationships), working (session state)
- Integration pattern: retrieve relevant memories → generate response → store
  new memories

**Quick Usage (Python Platform):**
  from mem0 import MemoryClient
  client = MemoryClient(api_key="m0-xxx")
  client.add("I prefer dark mode and use VS Code.", user_id="user1")
  results = client.search("What editor do they use?", filters={"user_id": "user1"})

**Quick Usage (JavaScript Platform):**
  import MemoryClient from 'mem0ai';
  const client = new MemoryClient({ apiKey: 'm0-xxx' });
  await client.add([{ role: "user", content: "I prefer dark mode." }], { userId: "user1" });
  const results = await client.search("What editor?", { filters: { userId: "user1" } });

**Quick Usage (Python Open Source):**
  from mem0 import Memory
  m = Memory()
  m.add("I prefer dark mode and use VS Code.", user_id="user1")
  results = m.search("What editor do they use?", filters={"user_id": "user1"})

Help me integrate Mem0 into my project. Start by asking what I'm building,
what language/framework I'm using, and whether I want managed or self-hosted.
