LibraVDB Memory

Install

openclaw plugins install @xdarkicex/openclaw-memory-libravdb

The installer builds the Go sidecar, provisions the bundled embedding/runtime assets, optionally provisions the T5 summarizer, and fails fast if the sidecar cannot pass its startup health check.

Minimum host version:

• OpenClaw >= 2026.3.22

Security note:

• scripts/setup.ts verifies SHA-256 checksums for downloaded sidecar/runtime/model assets
• the sidecar installer downloads prebuilt sidecar release assets only from github.com/xDarkicex/openclaw-memory-libravdb releases
• after install, the plugin makes no required network calls for embedding or extractive compaction
• the only optional runtime network path is an explicitly configured remote summarizer endpoint such as ollama-local

Activate

Add this to ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json:

{
  "plugins": {
    "slots": {
      "memory": "libravdb-memory"
    }
  }
}

Without the plugins.slots.memory entry, OpenClaw's default memory continues to run in parallel and this plugin does not take over the exclusive memory slot.

Verify

Run:

openclaw memory status

Expected output includes a readable status table showing the sidecar is running, stored turn/memory counts, the active ingestion gate threshold, and whether the abstractive summarizer is provisioned.
