Agent Memory Setup V2

Create a 3-tier memory directory structure (HOT/WARM/COLD) for OpenClaw agents and configure the built-in memory-core plugin to use Google Gemini Embeddings 2 (gemini-embedding-2-preview) for semantic memory search. Creates memory/ directories and stub files only — no code execution or external API calls from the setup script. After setup, the agent's memory_search tool uses Gemini's cloud embedding API to index memory files. Requires a free Google Gemini API key. Use when setting up a new agent's memory system or asked about semantic memory search. Triggers on "set up memory", "memory setup", "agent memory", "gemini memory", "semantic search memory", "onboard new agent".

Agent Memory Setup v2 — Gemini Embeddings 2

Create a 3-tier memory directory structure for OpenClaw agents and configure semantic search using Google Gemini Embeddings 2.

What This Skill Does

Creates directory structure and stub files via a bash script (no network calls, no env reads, no dependencies)
Provides configuration instructions for openclaw.json to enable Gemini-based memory search

Privacy Notice

⚠️ After setup, the agent's memory_search tool sends memory file content to Google's Gemini embedding API for vectorization. This is how semantic search works — files must be embedded to be searchable. The setup script itself makes no external calls.

Prerequisite

Google Gemini API key — free at https://aistudio.google.com/apikey

Setup

Step 1: Create directory structure

bash scripts/setup_memory_v2.sh /path/to/agent/workspace

Creates: memory/, memory/hot/, memory/warm/, stub .md files, heartbeat-state.json.

Step 2: Configure openclaw.json

Add under agents.defaults:

"memorySearch": { "provider": "gemini" },
"compaction": { "mode": "safeguard" },
"contextPruning": { "mode": "cache-ttl", "ttl": "1h" },
"heartbeat": { "every": "1h" }

Set API key: export GEMINI_API_KEY=your-key

Enable plugin: "lossless-claw": { "enabled": true }

Step 3: Restart

openclaw gateway restart

Memory Tiers

🔥 HOT (memory/hot/HOT_MEMORY.md) — Active session state, pending actions
🌡️ WARM (memory/warm/WARM_MEMORY.md) — Stable preferences, references
❄️ COLD (MEMORY.md) — Long-term milestones and distilled lessons

Optional Plugin

Lossless Claw (@martian-engineering/lossless-claw) — compacts old context into expandable summaries to prevent amnesia. Install separately: openclaw plugins install @martian-engineering/lossless-claw
