agentmemory-rest-api

agentmemory-rest-api is a skill for Claude Code from rohitg00/agentmemory. It costs 52 tokens per session (530 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guide to agentmemory's HTTP REST API, which lets software communicate with the local memory server using web requests. It covers health checks, saving memories, searching them, authentication, and response rules.

In plain words
What is it for?
Checking whether agentmemory is running, saving and searching memories with curl or other HTTP clients, configuring authentication, and integrating hosts that do not support MCP.
Why use it?
It provides a fallback when an agent cannot use MCP, a protocol for connecting AI tools, and gives developers a direct way to integrate with the server.

About the project

agentmemory is a persistent-memory system that lets AI coding agents retain and search information across sessions. It connects with several coding agents and MCP clients, storing knowledge with confidence scoring, lifecycle handling, knowledge graphs, and hybrid search. The catalogue contains agentmemory integrations such as skills, hooks, commands, a plugin, and an MCP component.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

agentmemory-rest-api scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

What it actually says

REST is agentmemory's primary surface. MCP is a bridge on top of it. Every memory operation has an HTTP endpoint under http://localhost:3111/agentmemory/*.

Quick start

# liveness
curl -fsS http://localhost:3111/agentmemory/livez

# For this fixed loopback URL only. Do not print the value or enable shell tracing.
agentmemory_secret="${AGENTMEMORY_SECRET:-$(cat "$HOME/.agentmemory/secret")}"
test -n "$agentmemory_secret" || exit 1

# save
curl -fsS -X POST http://localhost:3111/agentmemory/remember \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $agentmemory_secret" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"content":"chose JWT refresh rotation","concepts":["jwt-refresh-rotation"]}'

# recall
curl -fsS -X POST http://localhost:3111/agentmemory/smart-search \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $agentmemory_secret" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"query":"auth token strategy","limit":5}'

Auth

Protected endpoints require bearer authentication by default, including localhost. Liveness is public. The example uses an explicit environment secret or the generated local secret file; if the daemon uses a secret from its .env, load that value locally without displaying it. For a remote daemon, require an explicit credential for that endpoint and HTTPS. Never forward a local-file secret or follow an authenticated redirect to another host. See TROUBLESHOOTING.md.

Conventions

  • Save returns 201, reads return 200, validation errors return 400.
  • Use documented fields only. A successful response does not prove an unsupported field was applied.
  • The port is configurable with --port or --instance; streams, viewer, and engine derive from it.

See also

  • agentmemory-mcp-tools for the MCP equivalents.
  • agentmemory-config for the port quartet and the secret.

Reference

The full endpoint list with methods lives in REFERENCE.md, generated from src/triggers/api.ts.

Files

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
