## Installation
|
||||
|
||||
### Option A — Repo Marketplace (Recommended for Teams)
|
||||
### Option A — Direct MCP (Recommended)
|
||||
|
||||
Add a `.agents/plugins/marketplace.json` to your repository root:
|
||||
The fastest way to connect Codex to Mem0 — no downloads, no marketplace. Codex reads MCP servers from `~/.codex/config.toml` as TOML. Add:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"name": "mem0-plugins",
|
||||
"interface": {
|
||||
"displayName": "Mem0 Plugins"
|
||||
},
|
||||
"plugins": [
|
||||
{
|
||||
"name": "mem0",
|
||||
"source": {
|
||||
"source": "local",
|
||||
"path": "./plugins/mem0"
|
||||
},
|
||||
"policy": {
|
||||
"installation": "AVAILABLE",
|
||||
"authentication": "ON_INSTALL"
|
||||
},
|
||||
"category": "Productivity"
|
||||
}
|
||||
]
|
||||
}
|
||||
```toml
|
||||
[mcp_servers.mem0]
|
||||
url = "https://mcp.mem0.ai/mcp"
|
||||
bearer_token_env_var = "MEM0_API_KEY"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Then in Codex, browse the repo's plugin directory and install Mem0.
|
||||
Make sure `MEM0_API_KEY` is exported in the shell you launch Codex from, then restart Codex.
|
||||
|
||||
### Option B — Personal Marketplace
|
||||
<Info>
|
||||
Codex's `codex mcp add` CLI only supports stdio MCP servers. Because Mem0's MCP is HTTP/streamable, you configure it by editing `config.toml` directly (or via the **Plugins → Connect to a custom MCP → Streamable HTTP** UI in the Codex app).
|
||||
</Info>
|
||||
|
||||
Add to `~/.agents/plugins/marketplace.json`:
|
||||
### Option B — Sideload the Plugin (Advanced)
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"name": "mem0-plugins",
|
||||
"interface": {
|
||||
"displayName": "Mem0 Plugins"
|
||||
},
|
||||
"plugins": [
|
||||
{
|
||||
"name": "mem0",
|
||||
"source": {
|
||||
"source": "local",
|
||||
"path": "/path/to/mem0-plugin"
|
||||
},
|
||||
"policy": {
|
||||
"installation": "AVAILABLE",
|
||||
"authentication": "ON_INSTALL"
|
||||
},
|
||||
"category": "Productivity"
|
||||
}
|
||||
]
|
||||
}
|
||||
For the full plugin experience — MCP server **plus** the Mem0 SDK skill, memory protocol skill, and opt-in lifecycle hooks — sideload the plugin from a local clone. The Mem0 repo already ships a marketplace manifest at [`.agents/plugins/marketplace.json`](https://github.com/mem0ai/mem0/blob/main/.agents/plugins/marketplace.json), so there's no JSON to author by hand. This follows the Codex [build-plugins](https://developers.openai.com/codex/plugins/build) local-testing workflow.
|
||||
|
||||
<Info>
|
||||
Don't combine Option B with Option A. The plugin manifest declares its MCP server via [`.codex-mcp.json`](https://github.com/mem0ai/mem0/blob/main/mem0-plugin/.codex-mcp.json), so Codex auto-registers the `mem0` MCP server when the plugin loads. Adding the same `[mcp_servers.mem0]` block to `~/.codex/config.toml` will create a duplicate registration.
|
||||
</Info>
|
||||
|
||||
**Step 1.** Clone the Mem0 repository anywhere on disk:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
git clone https://github.com/mem0ai/mem0.git ~/codex-plugins/mem0-source
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Option C — Manual MCP Configuration
|
||||
**Step 2.** Register the bundled marketplace with Codex's CLI:
|
||||
|
||||
Add to your Codex MCP config:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"mcpServers": {
|
||||
"mem0": {
|
||||
"type": "http",
|
||||
"url": "https://mcp.mem0.ai/mcp/",
|
||||
"headers": {
|
||||
"Authorization": "Token ${MEM0_API_KEY}"
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
codex plugin marketplace add ~/codex-plugins/mem0-source
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This points Codex at the repo's `.agents/plugins/marketplace.json`. The bundled file uses `path: "./mem0-plugin"`, which Codex resolves relative to the clone root.
|
||||
|
||||
<Info>
|
||||
**Why we recommend this over hand-authoring `~/.agents/plugins/marketplace.json`:** Codex requires `source.path` in any marketplace manifest to be **relative** (starting with `./`) and **inside the marketplace root**. The repo's bundled manifest already satisfies this — the marketplace root is the clone directory, and `mem0-plugin/` lives inside it. With a personal `~/.agents/plugins/marketplace.json`, the root is `~/` and the clone has to live under `~/` too. The CLI form sidesteps that constraint.
|
||||
</Info>
|
||||
|
||||
**Step 3.** Restart Codex, run `/plugins`, browse the `Mem0 Plugins` marketplace, and install **Mem0**.
|
||||
|
||||
**Step 4 (optional) — enable lifecycle hooks.** Codex doesn't auto-wire hooks from plugin manifests; it only reads them from `~/.codex/hooks.json` (or `<repo>/.codex/hooks.json`). Run the bundled installer once to merge the Mem0 entries into your global hooks file:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
python3 ~/codex-plugins/mem0-source/mem0-plugin/scripts/install_codex_hooks.py
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Then enable the hooks feature flag in `~/.codex/config.toml`:
|
||||
|
||||
```toml
|
||||
[features]
|
||||
codex_hooks = true
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Restart Codex. The installer registers three hooks pointing at scripts inside your clone:
|
||||
|
||||
| Event | Behavior |
|
||||
|-------|----------|
|
||||
| `SessionStart` | Loads prior memories as bootstrap context |
|
||||
| `UserPromptSubmit` | Injects relevant memories before each prompt |
|
||||
| `Stop` | Reminds the agent to persist learnings at turn end |
|
||||
|
||||
Re-running the installer is idempotent. To remove the hooks: `python3 ~/codex-plugins/mem0-source/mem0-plugin/scripts/install_codex_hooks.py --uninstall`.
|
||||
|
||||
<Warning>
|
||||
The hooks file stores absolute paths into your clone (e.g. `~/codex-plugins/mem0-source/mem0-plugin/scripts/...`). If you move or delete the clone, the hooks will break silently — re-run the installer from the new location, or run `--uninstall` first.
|
||||
</Warning>
|
||||
|
||||
### Managing the Plugin
|
||||
|
||||
Codex provides CLI commands for managing marketplaces after install:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
codex plugin marketplace upgrade # pull latest plugin versions
|
||||
codex plugin marketplace remove mem0-plugins # unregister the marketplace
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To pull updates to the plugin source itself, `git pull` inside your clone (`~/codex-plugins/mem0-source`) and then run `codex plugin marketplace upgrade` to refresh Codex's plugin cache. Plugins are cached at `~/.codex/plugins/cache/<marketplace>/<plugin>/<version>/`.
|
||||
|
||||
<Info icon="check">
|
||||
Start a new Codex task and ask: *"List my mem0 entities"* or *"Search my memories for hello"*. If the `mem0` tools appear and respond, you're all set.
|
||||

Options A, B, and C above install the MCP server and the Mem0 SDK skill.

|
||||

||||
Codex only discovers hooks at `~/.codex/hooks.json` or `<repo>/.codex/hooks.json` ([docs](https://developers.openai.com/codex/hooks)) — there is no plugin-host mechanism that auto-wires hooks from an installed plugin. To opt in, run the installer once after installing the plugin:
|
||||
Clone the repo and register the bundled marketplace with one CLI call:

||||
|
||||
```bash

||||
python3 /path/to/mem0-plugin/scripts/install_codex_hooks.py

|
||||
codex plugin marketplace add ~/codex-plugins/mem0-source
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This merges three entries into `~/.codex/hooks.json` with absolute paths pointing into the plugin directory:
|
||||
This points Codex at the repo's `.agents/plugins/marketplace.json`, which references `mem0-plugin/` as the local source. Restart Codex, run `/plugins`, and install **Mem0** from the **Mem0 Plugins** marketplace.

||||
|
