Nothing on the wire said which Mem0 surface made a call. Both SDKs sent only an auth header, so the platform saw python-httpx and axios and attributed every plugin, wrapper and direct API user to one undifferentiated bucket. Version was unknowable, which is what gates every deprecation decision. Three headers, and the rules on them are the point: - X-Mem0-Source and X-Application are SET-ONCE. Whichever layer is outermost sets them; nothing below overwrites. A plugin wrapping the SDK keeps its own identity instead of being renamed by the transport underneath it. - X-Mem0-Client is APPEND-ONLY. A plugin calling the Python SDK produces `mem0-plugin/0.3.1, mem0-python/2.0.19`, so neither layer can erase the other. Deliberately not User-Agent: proxies rewrite it, and we have already met a WAF that 403s on it. The plugin core also hoists `source` out of metadata to the top level, which is where the backend actually reads it. It sat in metadata, which get_event_source never consults, so all six plugins arrived indistinguishable from a raw SDK call no matter what they set. The harness tag stays in metadata as hook provenance. pi-agent had PI_AGENT as a PostHog property only and never sent it on the wire. vercel-ai-sdk sent nothing at all from its raw fetch calls. Values must exist in the platform's EventSource enum or they bucket to OTHERS, so integrations/AGENTS.md now states the contract and the "adding an integration" checklist requires landing the platform value in the same week. Pairs with mem0ai/platform#3602, which recognizes these values. TypeScript changes are not typechecked locally — deps are not installed for those packages. CI covers them.

Mem0 agent plugin core

Each native directory owns only its manifest, native hooks or adapter, tests, and plugin-build.json. Its core/ and skills/ directories are generated from this module. They are committed because clients install a self-contained plugin directory and the Agent Plugins specification forbids package files from resolving outside the plugin root.
Sidekick belongs only to Claude Code. Its agent definition is in claude-code-plugin/agents/sidekick.md; its hooks are in claude-code-plugin/adapters/claude/hook.py. Other plugins must not register Sidekick. The shared core handles memory and native subagent tracking for Claude Code and Codex.
TypeScript integrations (openclaw, opencode-plugin, pi-agent-plugin, and deepseek-plugin) import typescript/src/ at build time. Their package builders include the shared implementation in their normal output; they do not carry checked-in copies.
Shared memory behavior
The six Python packages use the same search_memories MCP tool and six skill templates. Native hooks collect conversations and flush them to Mem0 in the background. The portable package uses the Agent Plugins v1 layout so compatible hosts can load its MCP server and skills. It has no lifecycle hooks or flush worker; its bundled remember skill assumes automatic capture and cannot save a memory on its own.
Python search accepts query, top_k, category, scope, and optional run_id:
| Scope | Memories searched |
|---|---|
repo (default) |
Shared repository memories and your personal memories in that repository |
dir |
Shared memories from the current directory and its children, plus your personal repository memories |
mine |
Your personal memories in that repository |
run_id filters any scope to memories saved in a known coding-agent session. Omit it for recall across sessions; it does not attribute the search request to the current session. Native Python extraction writes include the session's run_id.
New Git repository writes use a hashed remote identity for shared agent_id. Search and explicit shared-memory deletion include both that ID and the legacy unhashed ID under the same app_id. Legacy memories remain accessible, but their original ambiguity between matching owner/repository names on different Git hosts remains.
Captured prompts and responses preserve their full text after secret redaction. Python extraction splits oversized input across requests without dropping message text. The session-end worker flushes the conversation already collected by hooks without adding the final answer again. Search queries, retrieved context, and tool evidence have separate limits.
TypeScript hosts reuse redaction and lifecycle utilities but retain their own tools, scopes, and capture events. They do not inherit the Python repo/dir/mine contract or its background batching. OpenCode captures selected user prompts; Pi and DeepSeek capture completed conversation turns; OpenClaw selects recent messages and earlier summaries, then filters noise. Removing message-length truncation does not turn these integrations into complete transcript archives.
For installation, follow the host guides: Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Kimi, and Antigravity.
Build and verify
From the repository root:
python3.11 -m venv /tmp/mem0-agent-plugins
/tmp/mem0-agent-plugins/bin/pip install \
-r integrations/agent-plugin-core/requirements-dev.txt
for host in claude-code cursor codex kimi antigravity; do
/tmp/mem0-agent-plugins/bin/python \
integrations/agent-plugin-core/build/build.py "$host" \
--kind native --check
done
/tmp/mem0-agent-plugins/bin/python \
integrations/agent-plugin-core/build/build.py mem0-agent-plugin \
--kind portable --check
Use --sync instead of --check after changing python/ or skills/. This only replaces generated core/ and skills/ content; it does not change manifests, adapters, tests, or the Claude sidekick.
Run every offline Python and TypeScript check and write one machine-readable report:
/tmp/mem0-agent-plugins/bin/python \
integrations/agent-plugin-core/conformance/run.py \
--install \
--report /tmp/mem0-plugin-conformance.json
For every TypeScript integration, this also builds the publishable package, verifies its required entry files, and rejects compiled artifacts that still import monorepo source. This keeps published plugins self-contained without committing their dist/ directories.
The offline suite does not contact Mem0 Platform. An explicit disposable key enables the inherited live scoping suite:
export MEM0_API_KEY="m0-disposable-test-key"
/tmp/mem0-agent-plugins/bin/python \
integrations/agent-plugin-core/conformance/run.py \
--group live-platform --live \
--report /tmp/mem0-plugin-live-conformance.json
Do not put a real key in source files, command history shared with others, or pull-request configuration.
Add a plugin
For another native Python host:
- Add
integrations/<host>-plugin/with its native manifest and the smallest adapter that translates host events. - Add
plugin-build.jsondeclaring the plugin-root variable and runtime files. - Add one adapter contract test.
- Register the host in
build/build.pyandconformance/run.py. - Run
--sync,--check, and the conformance command above.
Keep capture, recall, memory scoping, redaction, skill text, and telemetry in this shared module. Host directories should contain only behavior required by their native SDK.
For a TypeScript host, import the shared lifecycle modules directly and keep only native SDK registration in the integration. Do not advertise capture or compaction behavior unless the host exposes the necessary lifecycle seam. Sidekick is limited to Claude Code.
Host capture capabilities
| Host | Conversation capture | Tool outcomes | Subagent context and correlation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Claude Code | Incremental active transcript branch | Native success/failure hooks | Parent context; native agent ID |
| Cursor | Prompt and response hooks; duplicate responses suppressed | Native success/failure hooks | No plugin subagent hooks or agent declaration |
| Codex | Native prompt and final-response fields | Structured failure indicators when present; otherwise unknown | Parent context; native agent ID |
| Kimi | Prompt hooks and completed v2 wire output | Native success/failure hooks | No plugin subagent hooks or agent declaration |
| Antigravity | Incremental completed transcript messages, including later prompts | Native tool errors | No plugin subagent hooks or agent declaration |
| Portable v1 | Explicit memory skills | No native lifecycle hooks | No native subagent declaration |
Python status uses subagent_runs and last_subagent. Legacy SQLite names and event handling keep existing records and running workers compatible.
An uncorrelated subagent completion is kept as its own record; the plugin never guesses which overlapping run completed. Codex's documented hook fields already match the shared input contract, so no speculative field aliases or unsupported failure event are registered.
Offline conformance exercises the adapters and MCP servers with native-shaped payloads and builds each distributable package. It does not establish that every installed editor or Harness version loads the plugin correctly; those checks require smoke tests in the actual hosts.
