  • Fires itselfAuto-invocation. Claude auto-loads it when your prompt matches the work.Auto-invocation is when the right skill fires by itself at the right moment, driven by a FLOW.md router and a hook, instead of you invoking it by name. It is the difference between a skill being installed and a skill actually getting used.Read the full definition →

Install claude-mem on Cursor

Independent of Grok Bot. Do not require the other IDE.

Local worker (default)

npx claude-mem install --ide cursor

Starts the local worker. Hooks already ship with this plugin. MCP `claude-mem-local` talks to it.

Observer:

  • Remote inference (typical): leave provider as openrouter / cmem.ai (`CLAUDE_MEM_OPENROUTER_BASE_URL=https://cmem.ai/api/inference/v1`)
  • Local host-login: `--provider host` (loopback shim; never bind the worker port — on macOS the worker is often 37777, so the shim uses 37778)

Remote worker

npx claude-mem install --ide cursor --runtime server --server-url https://YOUR_HOST

Set plugin variable `CLAUDE_MEM_MCP_TOKEN` for `claude-mem-remote` (`https://cmem.ai/api/mcp` or your server).

Never restart a healthy worker (RAM queue). No Claude CLI required for host/openrouter.
