What it does
This skill should be used when the user asks to "set up claude-mem", "pair claude-mem", "connect cmem", "add my cmem key", "set up cloud sync in Cowork", or provides cmem.ai Connect values (sync token, user id, SyncHub URL) for this plugin. Configures the claude-mem-cowork plugin credentials.
Claude-Mem Setup (Cowork pairing)
Configure this plugin with the user's own cmem.ai credentials so hooks can capture and inject memory. Anyone can pair, credentials are per-user configuration, never hardcoded in plugin logic.
What to collect
From cmem.ai → Connect, the user has three values:
- sync token (starts with
cm_), used as the bearer API key - user id (UUID)
- SyncHub URL (
https://sync.cmem.ai)
If the user pastes the whole Connect blurb, extract the three values from it. If any are missing, ask for the sync token at minimum, the other two are optional.
Secret handling, non-negotiable
- Never echo the token back in conversation, put it in a shell argv, or log it.
- Move it only via file writes (Write/Edit tool) and file reads.
