## What it does

The skill runs `nmem --json status` to test whether Nowledge Mem can be reached. It separates a local desktop setup from a remote machine, then guides the matching CLI path. For a remote setup, it can direct the user to install `nmem-cli`, configure the server URL and API key, and run the status check again.

It also identifies the agent in use and ranks the available connection paths: a native connector, Universal Agent Plugin, direct MCP, or a reusable skill package. The result includes the behavior to expect after setup, such as automatic startup, model-guided memory actions, and thread capture. Remote standalone CLI setup requires Python 3.11+.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add nowledge-co/community --skill check-integration -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**

```bash
npx skills add nowledge-co/community --skill check-integration -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/check-integration/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add nowledge-co/community --skill check-integration -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/check-integration/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

## When to use it
- verify that Nowledge Mem is reachable
- diagnose failing memory tools
- identify the current AI agent
- choose a connector path
- configure a Mem server URL and API key

## Example prompts
- Check whether Nowledge Mem is working and explain the result of `nmem --json status`.
- Detect the agent I am using and recommend the best Nowledge Mem connector.
- Inspect the memory setup and help repair it if the tools are unavailable.
