MIND for OpenClaw — Setup

Send the prompt below to your OpenClaw agent. It will install the MIND plugin, prompt you for an API key, verify the connection, and (optionally) migrate your existing OpenClaw workspace memory into MIND.

Prompt for Agent

Set up the MIND memory plugin and import existing memories.

Install & Configure

1. Run: openclaw plugins install @astramindapp/openclaw-mind
2. Ask the user: "What's your MIND API key? It starts with mind_. Get one at m-i-n-d.ai → Settings → Developer."
   Wait for their key, then run:
   

   openclaw mind init --api-key MIND_API_KEY_FROM_USER

3. Run: openclaw mind status — confirm it shows "MIND: CONNECTED" with an entity count.

Import Existing Memories (Optional)

4. Ask the user: "Want me to import your existing OpenClaw workspace memory (SOUL.md, IDENTITY.md, USER.md, MEMORY.md, and the daily memory dir) into MIND? It uses entity extraction to build a knowledge graph from your text files."
   If yes, run:

   openclaw mind import

5. Run: openclaw mind search "preferences" to confirm memories are searchable.

Verify

6. Report to the user: which workspace files were found, total memories imported, and confirm auto-recall + auto-capture are now active.

What Happens Next

From this point on, every agent turn will:

• Pull relevant memories from the MIND knowledge graph BEFORE the model responds (auto-recall)
• Extract durable facts AFTER the model responds and store them with entity + relationship extraction (auto-capture)

The agent gains 11 native tools (mind_search, mind_add, mind_query_graph, mind_recall_emotional, mind_context, mind_life, mind_crm_log, plus standard CRUD) and 4 skills (memory triage, dream consolidation, emotional encoding, graph recall).
