- Landing: replace nonexistent `mempalace remember` CLI demo with real
`mempalace mine ./notes`
- Landing: soften unverifiable absolutes ("forever available",
"100% recall by design", "<50 ms", "90%+ compression",
"two-thousand-year-old", "tens of thousands of entries")
- MCP tool count: 19 → 29 across mcp-integration, claude-code, openclaw,
and modules; expand tool overview with Drawers, Tunnels, and System
categories to match mcp_server.py
- Wake-up token range: ~170–900 → ~600–900 in cli/api-reference/python-api
to match cli.py help text and concept docs
- Gemini CLI: move `--scope user` before target name and add `--`
separator so `-m mempalace.mcp_server` isn't parsed as Gemini flags

Gemini CLI
MemPalace works natively with Gemini CLI, which handles the MCP server and save hooks automatically.
Prerequisites
- Python 3.9+
- Gemini CLI installed and configured
Installation
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/MemPalace/mempalace.git
cd mempalace
# Create a virtual environment
python3 -m venv .venv
# Install dependencies
.venv/bin/pip install -e .
Initialize the Palace
.venv/bin/python3 -m mempalace init .
Identity and Project Configuration (Optional)
You can optionally create or edit:
~/.mempalace/identity.txt— plain text describing your role and focus./mempalace.yaml— per-project MemPalace configuration created bymempalace init./entities.json— per-project entity mappings used by AAAK compression
Connect to Gemini CLI
Register MemPalace as an MCP server:
gemini mcp add --scope user mempalace \
-- /absolute/path/to/mempalace/.venv/bin/python -m mempalace.mcp_server
::: warning
Use the absolute path to the Python binary so the server starts from any
working directory. The -- separator prevents Gemini from parsing
-m mempalace.mcp_server as its own flags.
:::
Enable Auto-Saving
Add a PreCompress hook to ~/.gemini/settings.json:
{
"hooks": {
"PreCompress": [
{
"matcher": "*",
"hooks": [
{
"type": "command",
"command": "/absolute/path/to/mempalace/hooks/mempal_precompact_hook.sh"
}
]
}
]
}
}
Make sure the hook scripts are executable:
chmod +x hooks/*.sh
Usage
Once connected, Gemini CLI will automatically:
- Start the MemPalace server on launch
- Use
mempalace_searchto find relevant past discussions - Use the
PreCompresshook to save memories before context compression
Manual Mining
Mine existing code or docs:
.venv/bin/python3 -m mempalace mine /path/to/your/project
Verification
In a Gemini CLI session:
/mcp list— verifymempalaceisCONNECTED/hooks panel— verify thePreCompresshook is active
