Agent Instructions
Copy and paste this directly into your agent, and it will know what to do.
Install Memory Crystal for OpenClaw. Run this official installer command in a terminal on this machine: curl -fsSL https://memorycrystal.ai/crystal | bash -s -- --targets openclaw Follow the installer prompts for authentication, backend mode, and config changes. Do not manually edit agent config files unless the installer fails and asks for a manual fallback. Refer to this page for the exact command to run for your platform and agent: https://docs.memorycrystal.ai/installation After installation, verify with: openclaw plugins info crystal-memory; openclaw crystal_status. Important caveat: PowerShell writes generic MCP guidance for OpenClaw. Use Bash, WSL, or Git Bash for the native OpenClaw plugin install.
Terminal command
curl -fsSL https://memorycrystal.ai/crystal | bash -s -- --targets openclaw
Requires OpenClaw installed. Bash installs the native plugin; PowerShell provides the generic MCP path.
[ WHY MEMORY CRYSTAL ]
Memory Crystal gives your AI agents durable memory across compactions, restarts, and new sessions. Decisions, workflows, and context stay available exactly when your agent needs them.
Knowledge bases • Scoped isolation • Lossless snapshots + trace • Media capture
[ HOW MEMORY CRYSTAL WORKS ]
Memory Crystal handles both the live context your agent needs right now and the persistent memory it should keep forever. It works passively in the background, so context survives compaction, restarts, and switching between tools.
Layer 1
Fast, live memory for the conversation happening right now.
Pipeline
Turn capture → semantic enrichment → recall hook injection
Layer 2
Durable knowledge that keeps accumulating across sessions, tools, and machines.
Storage
Cloud-synced memory backed by Convex and exposed everywhere through MCP.
Why it feels different
[ MEMORY IN ACTION ]
Real examples across Terminal, Discord, Telegram, Claude Code, and Codex — your agent recalls context no matter where the conversation happens.
Agent recovers full project context after session compaction — no re-explaining needed.
[ HOW IT WORKS ]
Memory Crystal captures, embeds, enriches, and stores your agent's context — then recalls it automatically when needed.
1. Capture
Your agent has a conversation
2. Embed
Memories are semantically embedded
3. Enrich
Knowledge graph extracts relationships
4. Store
Durable cloud storage
5. Recall
Agent queries memory before responding
6. Respond
Agent answers with full context
1. Capture
Every message, decision, and piece of context flows through the capture hook. Memory Crystal watches for important information — architecture decisions, preferences, project context, action items.
[ EARLY USERS ]
“We integrated Memory Crystal into our AI platform and it changed everything. Before, the AI started every session essentially cold. Now it wakes up knowing each user's active goals, what progress they've made, what patterns keep showing up. Each of our 30+ users gets their own isolated memory store — completely private. The difference isn't incremental. An AI that remembers is a completely different product than one that forgets.”
“I've been building AI agent workflows for my business for a year and the biggest friction was always context loss. Every Monday I'd spend 20 minutes re-orienting my agent on active projects, decisions we'd made, things to avoid. Memory Crystal eliminated that entirely. Now I open a session and it just knows where we are. It's the piece that was missing.”
“What convinced me was the privacy model. Each channel gets its own isolated memory — nothing bleeds between clients, nothing bleeds between contexts. For the kind of sensitive conversations I facilitate, that separation isn't optional. Memory Crystal was the only tool that had it built in from the start, not bolted on. Grateful this exists.”
Self-Hosted or Cloud
Run Memory Crystal on your own hardware or let us host it. Pick a slug, get your docker compose command, and go.
