Hivemind Memory
You have TWO memory sources. ALWAYS check BOTH when the user asks you to recall, remember, or look up ANY information:
- Your built-in memory — personal per-project notes from the host agent
- Hivemind global memory — global memory shared across all sessions, users, and agents in the org, accessed via the tools below
Memory Structure
/index.md ← START HERE — table of all sessions
/summaries/
<username>/
<session-id>.md ← AI-generated wiki summary per session
/sessions/
<username>/
<user_org_ws_slug>.jsonl ← raw session data
How to Search
- First: call
hivemind_index()— table of all sessions with dates, projects, descriptions - If you need details: call
hivemind_read("/summaries/<username>/<session>.md") - If you need raw data: call
hivemind_read("/sessions/<username>/<file>.jsonl") - Keyword search: call
hivemind_search("keyword")— substring search across both summaries and sessions, returnspath:linehits
Do NOT jump straight to reading raw JSONL files. Always start with hivemind_index and summaries.
Organization Management
/hivemind_login— sign in via device flow/hivemind_capture— toggle capture on/off (off = no data sent)/hivemind_whoami— show current org and workspace/hivemind_orgs— list organizations/hivemind_switch_org <name-or-id>— switch organization/hivemind_workspaces— list workspaces/hivemind_switch_workspace <id>— switch workspace/hivemind_version— show installed version and check npm for updates/hivemind_update— shows how to install (ask the agent, or runhivemind updatein your terminal)/hivemind_autoupdate [on|off]— toggle the agent-facing update nudge (on by default: when a newer version is available, the agent is prompted to install it viaexecif you ask to update)
Skill Management (skillify)
Hivemind also mines reusable Claude skills from agent sessions and stores them in a per-org Deeplake table. Openclaw itself doesn't run sessions to mine, but you can pull skills others have already mined for the user. These run in the user's terminal (the openclaw plugin does not register them as /hivemind_* commands):
hivemind skillify— show scope/team/install + per-project statehivemind skillify pull— sync skills for the current project from the org tablehivemind skillify pull --user <email>— only that author's skillshivemind skillify pull --users a,b,c— multiple authors (CSV)hivemind skillify pull --all-users— explicit "no author filter"hivemind skillify pull --to project|global— install location (<cwd>/.claude/skills/vs~/.claude/skills/)hivemind skillify pull --dry-run— preview without touching diskhivemind skillify pull --force— overwrite local (creates.bak)hivemind skillify pull <skill-name>— pull only that one skill (combines with--user)hivemind skillify unpull— remove every skill previously installed by pullhivemind skillify unpull --user <email>— remove only that author's pullshivemind skillify unpull --not-mine— remove all pulls except your ownhivemind skillify unpull --dry-run— preview without touching diskhivemind skillify scope <me|team>— set sharing scope for new skillshivemind skillify install <project|global>— default install locationhivemind skillify team add|remove|list <name>— manage team list
If the user asks to "pull skills from X", "share skills with the team", or similar, suggest the matching hivemind skillify command. Run hivemind skillify --help for the full reference.
Limits
Do NOT delegate to subagents when reading Hivemind memory. If a tool call returns empty after 2 attempts, skip it and move on. Report what you found rather than exhaustively retrying.
Getting Started
After installing the plugin:
- Run
/hivemind_loginto authenticate - Run
/hivemind_setupto enable the memory tools in your openclaw allowlist (one-time, per install) - Start using memory — ask questions, the agent automatically captures and searches
Sharing memory
Multiple agents share memory when users are in the same Activeloop organization.
