@mem9/deepseek-plugin

Persistent Mem9 memory for DeepSeek Harness. This package is an installable DSH/Cordis bundle. It adds automatic recall, background smart ingest, and five model-facing memory tools without changing the Harness agent loop or session format.

Install

export MEM9_API_KEY="<mem9-api-key>"
dsh plugin --profile <profile> add @mem9/deepseek-plugin
dsh --profile <profile> --dump-config

Before the package is published to npm, install from a local checkout:

dsh plugin --profile <profile> add ./deepseek-plugin

The bundle inserts one Cordis row named mem9. Override its complete config object in the profile's cordis.patch.yml when non-default settings are required.

Configuration

Field	Default	Meaning
apiUrl	https://api.mem9.ai	Hosted or self-hosted Mem9 origin
apiKeyEnv	MEM9_API_KEY	Credential reference resolved through ctx.credentials for every operation
agentId	deepseek-harness	X-Mnemo-Agent-Id request header and smart-ingest agent id
defaultTimeoutMs	8000	Store/get/update/delete/ingest timeout
searchTimeoutMs	15000	Search and automatic recall timeout
includeSubagents	false	Give subagents tools, recall, and ingest when enabled
recall.enabled	true	Search before the first model step of each user turn
recall.minQueryChars	5	Skip shorter user text
recall.limit	10	Maximum recalled memories
recall.maxCharsPerMemory	500	Per-memory prompt bound
ingest.enabled	true	Submit completed turns with mode: smart
ingest.maxMessages	20	Maximum user/assistant messages per ingest
ingest.maxBytes	204800	UTF-8 content budget per ingest

Example profile override:

- id: mem9
  name: '@mem9/deepseek-plugin'
  config:
    apiKeyEnv: MEM9_API_KEY
    apiUrl: https://api.mem9.ai
    includeSubagents: false
    recall:
      enabled: true
      minQueryChars: 5
      limit: 10
      maxCharsPerMemory: 500
    ingest:
      enabled: true
      maxMessages: 20
      maxBytes: 204800

Behavior

Recall runs at agent/pre-step for the first real user step. Results enter the ordinary session log as a plugin-sourced user/message with form: recall, so the model input is replayable without this package installed. Recalled text is explicitly labeled as untrusted historical context.

Smart ingest starts after a completed turn/end, selects only real user and assistant text, and never blocks turn completion. Work is serialized per session and drained with the plugin during shutdown. Automatic HTTP failures are fail-soft. A Mem9 runtime-quota denial adds at most one durable notice per session.

The model-facing tools are:

• memory_store
• memory_search
• memory_get
• memory_update
• memory_delete

Tools return structured JSON values. Expected API failures are returned as { "ok": false, ... }; quota errors preserve their safe action metadata. API keys are resolved per operation and never enter configuration output, session events, or tool errors.

By default, only top-level agents receive Mem9 registrations. Set includeSubagents: true to enable the same tools and automatic paths for subagents.

Development

pnpm install
pnpm test
pnpm typecheck
pnpm build
pnpm pack:check
pnpm test:e2e       # skips unless MEM9_API_KEY is set

The test suite exercises public Cordis, agent, session, tool, credential, HTTP, and package seams. Live E2E should use a dedicated test Space; it creates uniquely tagged data and deletes it in cleanup.
