What supermemory-cli does

This skill provides your agent with the command reference for the supermemory npm package calling the v5 API. It guides the assistant through content ingestion via add, hybrid retrieval with search, profile inspection, and memory deletion. Data isolates cleanly using dedicated namespaces.

The reference covers configuration scopes across project, team, and global levels. The agent learns how to pass structured metadata, apply JSON search filters, and monitor the ingestion pipeline using docs status.

API calls halt immediately with an error unless authenticated via supermemory login or SUPERMEMORY_API_KEY. Only help, local, and plugin run without credentials.

What it helps with

  • ingest text, files, and URLs into dedicated namespaces
  • run hybrid search across stored memories and chunked documents
  • delete outdated memories by identifier or semantic search query
  • inspect extraction and indexing pipelines for ingested documents

Example prompts for the agent

  • Add this markdown file to the engineering namespace using supermemory
  • Search supermemory for our authentication patterns with reranking enabled
  • Check the processing status of document doc_abc123
