About this skill

Claude-Mem Setup (Cowork pairing)

Configure this plugin with the user's own cmem.ai credentials so hooks can capture and inject memory. Anyone can pair — credentials are per-user configuration, never hardcoded in plugin logic.

What to collect

From cmem.ai → Connect, the user has three values:

  1. sync token (starts with cm_) — used as the bearer API key
  2. user id (UUID)
  3. SyncHub URL (https://sync.cmem.ai)

If the user pastes the whole Connect blurb, extract the three values from it. If any are missing, ask for the sync token at minimum — the other two are optional.

Secret handling — non-negotiable

  • Never echo the token back in conversation, put it in a shell argv, or log it.
  • Move it only via file writes (Write/Edit tool) and file reads.

Steps

  1. Locate the installed plugin root (this skill's own plugin). Update its config.json: set apiKey to the sync token, userId, and syncHubUrl. Leave other settings unless the user asks (inject toggles). Project naming is automatic (cmem_work_*) and is not configurable.

  2. Cowork containers are ephemeral: edits to the installed copy last only for this session. To make pairing permanent, repackage — zip the plugin directory as <plugin-name>.plugin and send it to the user to re-install (the cowork-plugin skill's packaging flow). Tell the user this is why.

  3. If this machine also has a local claude-mem install (a ~/.claude-mem/ directory exists), write the same values to ~/.claude-mem/settings.json with mode 0600 (CLAUDE_MEM_CLOUD_SYNC_TOKEN, CLAUDE_MEM_CLOUD_SYNC_USER_ID, CLAUDE_MEM_CLOUD_SYNC_HUB_URL keys — the same keys the local claude-mem cloud-sync pairing writes). This plugin's hooks stay off wherever claude-mem is installed locally, so that pairing is what carries this machine's work to cmem.ai. The worker reads those keys only at startup: restart it and run the claude-mem cloud-sync skill's Verify step, which must report configured: true and hub.reachable: true. Don't report success before it does; if it never does, pair through that skill's installer flow instead.

  4. Verify without exposing the secret:

    node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/cmem-hook.mjs" status

    Report the masked output. A MISSING key means the write didn't land; a 404 on /api/hooks/context is expected until the Pro endpoints deploy (search/injection still work via /api/mcp).

Alternate source

Env vars override everything and need no file edits: CMEM_API_KEY, CMEM_USER_ID, CMEM_SYNC_HUB_URL, CMEM_API_BASE.
