status
Diagnoses Mem0 connectivity, API key validity, and memory read/write functionality. Use when memory operations fail, searches return empty, or to verify the plugin is working correctly.
Why this skill is useful
Adds a diagnostic script for verifying Mem0 plugin functionality and API key validity, which the AI wouldn't reliably generate on its own.
What it needs
Requires mem0_memory installed locally. About 2k tokens when loaded. Last updated 2026-08-06. 62,725 stars on the source repository.
What this skill does
Health Check / Status Run a diagnostic check on the Mem0 plugin. Useful for troubleshooting. Execution Run ALL checks, then display a single summary. Do not stop on the first failure. Check 1: API key Verify the API key is configured. The plugin loads it from MEM0APIKEY env var or ~/.pi/agent/mem0-config.json. If not set: FAIL — "No API key configured" If set: PASS — show first 6 chars followed by ... Check 2: Identity resolution Report the resolved identity: userid: from config, env, or system user projectid: auto-detected from current directory sessionid: current session identifier PASS if userid and projectid are non-empty. WARN if any falls back to defaults. Check 3: Connectivity Use mem0memory tool with action="search", query="health check". If returns successfully (even empty): PASS If errors: FAIL — show the error message Check 4: Memory write capability Use mem0memory tool with action="add", content="Health check probe — safe to delete.". If succeeds: PASS — then clean up by deleting the probe memory. If errors: FAIL — show the error. Display If any check fails, add a ## Troubleshooting section with specific fix steps. Extended mode: Memory Quality Analysis When invoked with --deep (e.g., /mem0-status --deep), run the standard checks above plus a memory quality scan. Quality Check 1: Duplicates Fetch all memories with mem0memory action="getall". Compare pairs within the same category for high textual overlap (shared nouns > 60%). Report: Quality Check 2: Stale memories Flag memories older than 180 days that haven't been accessed recently. Quality Check 3: Contradictions Within each category, flag pairs that assert opposing facts. Quality summary If all counts are 0: Memory quality: clean. If any non-zero, list the affected memory IDs so the user can review them with the normal search and forget commands.
How to use it
