Install in one prompt (any AI tool)
Paste this into Claude Desktop, Cursor, Codex, Claude Code, or Windsurf — the agent reads our setup guide, installs the SDK, configures the MCP server, and verifies the round-trip end-to-end. No terminal context-switching.
Install Mengram for me. Fetch the canonical install guide at
https://mengram.io/agent-install.txt and follow it precisely.
My email is YOUR_EMAIL_HERE.Works in any agent with shell + file-edit + web-fetch tools. Prefer doing it manually? See the plain-text guide — it's structured for human eyes too.
Claude Code — Memory That Survives /clear AND Auto-Compaction
Persistent memory that survives /clear, auto-compaction, machine switches, and team handoffs — the SessionStart hook fires after every compact and re-injects your context. The summary can be lossy; the memory isn't.
# 1. Get a free key at https://mengram.io and save it once
mkdir -p ~/.mengram && echo '{"api_key": "om-your-key-here"}' > ~/.mengram/config.json
# 2. Install the plugin (hooks + MCP server + skill)
claude plugin marketplace add alibaizhanov/mengram
claude plugin install mengram@mengram
# 3. Skip the cold start — import your existing session history
# (secrets are redacted on your machine before anything is uploaded)
mengram import claude-codeWhat happens:
Session Start → Loads your cognitive profile (fires after /clear, compaction, and restarts)
Every Prompt → Searches past sessions for relevant context (auto-recall)
After Response → Saves new knowledge in background (auto-save)No manual saves. No tool calls. Claude just knows what you worked on yesterday — even after compaction ate the transcript.
Prefer CLI-managed hooks instead of the plugin? pip install mengram-ai && mengram setup does the same via mengram hook install.
Why Mengram?
Every AI memory tool stores facts. Mengram stores 3 types of memory — and procedures evolve when they fail.
| Mengram | claude-mem | Mem0 | Zep | Letta | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Semantic memory (facts, preferences) | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Episodic memory (events, decisions) | Yes | Partial | No | No | Partial |
| Procedural memory (workflows) | Yes | No | No | No | No |
| Procedures evolve from failures | Yes | No | No | No | No |
| Cognitive Profile | Yes | No | No | No | No |
| Native multilingual retrieval (23 languages) | Yes | Partial | No | No | No |
| Ask & Citations (synthesized answer) | Yes | No | No | No | No |
| Multi-user isolation | Yes | No | Yes | Yes | No |
| Knowledge graph | Yes | No | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Claude Code hooks (auto-save/recall) | Yes | Yes | No | No | No |
| MCP server | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| LangChain + CrewAI integrations | Yes | No | Partial | Partial | Partial |
| Import Claude Code history / ChatGPT / Obsidian | Yes | No | No | No | No |

Get Started in 30 Seconds
1. Install
pip install mengram-ai2. Setup — one command does everything: account, Claude Code hooks, MCP configs for detected tools (Cursor, Claude Desktop, Windsurf), history import, and a round-trip check
mengram setupOr get a key manually at mengram.io and export MENGRAM_API_KEY=om-...
3. Use
from mengram import Mengram
m = Mengram(api_key="om-...")
# Add a conversation — auto-extracts facts, events, and workflows
m.add([
{"role": "user", "content": "Deployed to Railway today. Build passed but forgot migrations — DB crashed. Fixed by adding a pre-deploy check."},
])
# Search across all 3 memory types at once
results = m.search_all("deployment issues")
# → {semantic: [...], episodic: [...], procedural: [...]}# Upload a PDF — auto-extracts memories using vision AI
result = m.add_file("meeting-notes.pdf")
# → {"status": "accepted", "job_id": "job-...", "page_count": 12}
# Poll for completion
m.job_status(result["job_id"])// Node.js — pass a file path
await m.addFile('./report.pdf');
// Browser — pass a File object from <input type="file">
await m.addFile(fileInput.files[0]);# REST API
curl -X POST https://mengram.io/v1/add_file \
-H "Authorization: Bearer om-..." \
-F "file=@meeting-notes.pdf" \
-F "user_id=default"npm install mengram-aiconst { MengramClient } = require('mengram-ai');
const m = new MengramClient('om-...');
await m.add([{ role: 'user', content: 'Fixed OOM by adding Redis cache layer' }]);
const results = await m.searchAll('database issues');
// → { semantic: [...], episodic: [...], procedural: [...] }# Add memory
curl -X POST https://mengram.io/v1/add \
-H "Authorization: Bearer om-..." \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "I prefer dark mode and vim keybindings"}]}'
# Search all 3 types
curl -X POST https://mengram.io/v1/search/all \
-H "Authorization: Bearer om-..." \
-d '{"query": "user preferences"}'3 Memory Types
Semantic — facts, preferences, knowledge
m.search("tech stack")
# → ["Uses Python 3.12", "Deploys to Railway", "PostgreSQL with pgvector"]Episodic — events, decisions, outcomes
m.episodes(query="deployment")
# → [{summary: "DB crashed due to missing migrations", outcome: "resolved", date: "2025-05-12"}]Procedural — workflows that evolve
Week 1: "Deploy" → build → push → deploy
↓ FAILURE: forgot migrations
Week 2: "Deploy" v2 → build → run migrations → push → deploy
↓ FAILURE: OOM
Week 3: "Deploy" v3 → build → run migrations → check memory → push → deploy ✅This happens automatically when you report failures:
m.procedure_feedback(proc_id, success=False,
context="OOM error on step 3", failed_at_step=3)
# → Procedure evolves to v3 with new step addedEvery failure-driven revision records which assumption turned out false — not just which step broke — and derives a precondition that travels with the procedure at recall time:
{
"version": 3,
"violated_assumption": "the build container had enough memory for a full build",
"preconditions": ["check available memory before building"],
"success_count": 11, "fail_count": 2
}An agent loading v3 doesn't repeat the two mistakes that produced it — and knows what to verify before trusting the workflow.
Or fully automatic — just add conversations and Mengram detects failures and evolves procedures:
m.add([{"role": "user", "content": "Deploy failed again — OOM on the build step"}])
# → Episode created → linked to "Deploy" procedure → failure detected → v3 createdAsk Your Memory (RAG built-in)
m.ask() returns a synthesized answer with citations — not a raw fact list.
Mengram embeds your query, retrieves the top relevant facts, and uses
Cohere Chat to write a grounded answer with native source attribution.
result = m.ask("what programming languages do I use?")
print(result["answer"])
# 'You use Python and Rust. Python is your daily language [1] and
# Rust is your favorite [2]. You also know Java for enterprise
# systems [3].'
for cit in result["citations"]:
print(f' "{cit["text"]}" → {cit["sources"][0]["fact"]}')
# "Python and Rust" → uses Python daily for backend development
# "favorite [2]" → Rust is favorite language
# "Java" → specializes in Java/Spring BootMultilingual: ask in any of 23 languages, get an answer in the same language with citations linking back to facts in the original language they were stored. Premium feature (Pro / Growth / Business).
Cognitive Profile
One API call generates a system prompt from all memories:
profile = m.get_profile()
# → "You are talking to Ali, a developer in Almaty. Uses Python, PostgreSQL,
# and Railway. Recently debugged pgvector deployment. Prefers direct
# communication and practical next steps."Insert into any LLM's system prompt for instant personalization.
Import Existing Data
Kill the cold-start problem:
mengram import chatgpt ~/Downloads/chatgpt-export.zip --cloud # ChatGPT history
mengram import obsidian ~/Documents/MyVault --cloud # Obsidian vault
mengram import files notes/*.md --cloud # Any text/markdownIntegrations
