OpenClaw Plugin — Persistent Memory for OpenClaw Agents

Claude-mem now has an official OpenClaw plugin, bringing persistent memory to agents running on the OpenClaw gateway. This is a major milestone — claude-mem's memory system is no longer limited to Claude Code sessions.

What It Does

The plugin bridges claude-mem's observation pipeline with OpenClaw's embedded runner (pi-embedded), which calls the Anthropic API directly without spawning a claude process. Three core capabilities:

Observation Recording — Captures every tool call from OpenClaw agents and sends it to the claude-mem worker for AI-powered compression and storage
MEMORY.md Live Sync — Writes a continuously-updated memory timeline to each agent's workspace, so agents start every session with full context from previous work
Observation Feed — Streams new observations to messaging channels (Telegram, Discord, Slack, Signal, WhatsApp, LINE) in real-time via SSE

Quick Start

Add claude-mem to your OpenClaw gateway config:

{
  "plugins": {
    "claude-mem": {
      "enabled": true,
      "config": {
        "project": "my-project",
        "syncMemoryFile": true,
        "observationFeed": {
          "enabled": true,
          "channel": "telegram",
          "to": "your-chat-id"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

The claude-mem worker service must be running on the same machine (localhost:37777).

Commands

/claude-mem-status — Worker health check, active sessions, feed connection state
/claude-mem-feed — Show/toggle observation feed status
/claude-mem-feed on|off — Enable/disable feed

How the Event Lifecycle Works

OpenClaw Gateway
  ├── session_start ──────────→ Init claude-mem session
  ├── before_agent_start ─────→ Sync MEMORY.md + track workspace
  ├── tool_result_persist ────→ Record observation + re-sync MEMORY.md
  ├── agent_end ──────────────→ Summarize + complete session
  ├── session_end ────────────→ Clean up session tracking
  └── gateway_start ──────────→ Reset all tracking

All observation recording and MEMORY.md syncs are fire-and-forget — they never block the agent.

Windows Platform Improvements

ProcessManager: Migrated daemon spawning from deprecated WMIC to PowerShell Start-Process with -WindowStyle Hidden
ChromaSync: Re-enabled vector search on Windows (was previously disabled entirely)
Worker Service: Added unified DB-ready gate middleware — all DB-dependent endpoints now wait for initialization instead of returning "Database not initialized" errors
EnvManager: Switched from fragile allowlist to simple blocklist for subprocess env vars (only strips ANTHROPIC_API_KEY per Issue #733)

Session Management Fixes

Fixed unbounded session tracking map growth — maps are now cleaned up on session_end
Session init moved to session_start and after_compaction hooks for correct lifecycle handling

SSE Fixes

Fixed stream URL consistency across the codebase
Fixed multi-line SSE data frame parsing (concatenates data: lines per SSE spec)

Issue Triage

Closed 37+ duplicate/stale/invalid issues across multiple triage phases, significantly cleaning up the issue tracker.
