Key Lib Files

Database Schema

SQLite with FTS5 full-text search:

• memories — Main table: id, content, type, tags, scope, project_id, created_at, updated_at, deleted_at
• memories_fts — FTS5 virtual table, synced via triggers
• memory_embeddings — Vector storage: memory_id, embedding (JSON float array), model
• memory_links — Bidirectional links: id1, id2, link_type
• memory_history — Version tracking: memory_id, version, content, tags, change_type
• memory_sessions — Explicit session state (scope, status, last activity, metadata)
• memory_session_events — Session turn/checkpoint/event log with meaningful flag
• memory_session_snapshots — Raw markdown transcript snapshots keyed by trigger/slug
• memory_compaction_events — Write-ahead compaction audit trail
• memory_consolidation_runs — Consolidation run metadata and counts

Lifecycle Model (Current)

1. Session start: startMemorySession() creates memory_sessions row and can preload OpenClaw bootstrap context when file mode is enabled.
2. Checkpointing: checkpointMemorySession() records meaningful events in memory_session_events.
3. Compaction guard: writeAheadCompactionCheckpoint() writes a checkpoint before destructive context compaction and logs memory_compaction_events.
4. Snapshots: createMemorySessionSnapshot() stores raw markdown snapshots in DB and optionally mirrors to OpenClaw snapshot files.
5. Consolidation: consolidateMemories() merges duplicates/supersedes stale entries and records memory_consolidation_runs.

Adding a New CLI Command

1. Create packages/cli/src/commands/mycommand.ts:

import { Command } from "commander";

export const myCommand = new Command("mycommand")
  .description("What it does")
  .argument("<required>", "Description")
  .option("-f, --flag <value>", "Description", "default")
  .action(async (required, opts) => {
    // Use lib functions from ../lib/
    // Use ui.ts for styled output
  });

1. Register in packages/cli/src/index.ts:

import { myCommand } from "./commands/mycommand.js";
program.addCommand(myCommand);

1. Add tests in packages/cli/src/commands/mycommand.test.ts.

Adding a New MCP Tool

Edit packages/cli/src/mcp/tools.ts (and streaming-tools.ts for chunked ingestion):

server.tool(
  "tool_name",
  "Description of what the tool does",
  {
    param: z.string().describe("Parameter description"),
  },
  async ({ param }) => {
    // Implementation
    return {
      content: [{ type: "text", text: "Result" }],
    };
  }
);

Parameters use Zod schemas. Return {isError: true} for errors.

Notes:

• Register in registerCoreTools() for standard/lifecycle tools.
• Keep cloud-vs-local behavior explicit when adding tools that rely on local-only tables or file paths.

Adding a New Generation Target

1. Add template to packages/cli/src/lib/templates.ts
2. Register in the generation targets map
3. Add detection in packages/cli/src/lib/setup.ts
4. Add docs page in packages/web/content/docs/integrations/

Build & Test

pnpm build          # Build all packages
pnpm typecheck      # TypeScript checks
pnpm test           # Run all tests (vitest)

# CLI-specific
cd packages/cli
pnpm dev            # Watch mode (tsup)
pnpm test           # CLI tests only

# Web-specific
cd packages/web
pnpm dev            # Next.js dev server
pnpm build          # Production build
