Supermemory Memory Provider

Semantic long-term memory with profile recall, semantic search, explicit memory tools, and session-end conversation ingest.

Requirements

Setup

hermes memory setup    # select "supermemory"

Or manually:

hermes config set memory.provider supermemory
echo 'SUPERMEMORY_API_KEY=***' >> ~/.hermes/.env

Config

Config file: $HERMES_HOME/supermemory.json

Key Default Description
container_tag hermes Container tag used for search and writes. Supports {identity} template for profile-scoped tags (e.g. hermes-{identity}hermes-coder).
auto_recall true Inject relevant memory context before turns
auto_capture true Store cleaned user-assistant turns after each response
max_recall_results 10 Max recalled items to format into context
profile_frequency 50 Include profile facts on first turn and every N turns
capture_mode all Skip tiny or trivial turns by default
search_mode hybrid Search mode: hybrid (profile + memories), memories (memories only), documents (documents only)
entity_context built-in default Extraction guidance passed to Supermemory
api_timeout 5.0 Timeout for SDK and ingest requests

Environment Variables

Variable Description
SUPERMEMORY_API_KEY API key (required)
SUPERMEMORY_CONTAINER_TAG Override container tag (takes priority over config file)

Tools

Tool Description
supermemory_store Store an explicit memory
supermemory_search Search memories by semantic similarity
supermemory_forget Forget a memory by ID or best-match query
supermemory_profile Retrieve persistent profile and recent context

Behavior

When enabled, Hermes can:

  • prefetch relevant memory context before each turn
  • store cleaned conversation turns after each completed response
  • ingest the full session on session end for richer graph updates
  • expose explicit tools for search, store, forget, and profile access

Profile-Scoped Containers

Use {identity} in the container_tag to scope memories per Hermes profile:

{
  "container_tag": "hermes-{identity}"
}

For a profile named coder, this resolves to hermes-coder. The default profile resolves to hermes-default. Without {identity}, all profiles share the same container.

Multi-Container Mode

For advanced setups (e.g. OpenClaw-style multi-workspace), you can enable custom container tags so the agent can read/write across multiple named containers:

{
  "container_tag": "hermes",
  "enable_custom_container_tags": true,
  "custom_containers": ["project-alpha", "project-beta", "shared-knowledge"],
  "custom_container_instructions": "Use project-alpha for coding tasks, project-beta for research, and shared-knowledge for team-wide facts."
}

When enabled:

  • supermemory_search, supermemory_store, supermemory_forget, and supermemory_profile accept an optional container_tag parameter
  • The tag must be in the whitelist: primary container + custom_containers
  • Automatic operations (turn sync, prefetch, memory write mirroring, session ingest) always use the primary container only
  • Custom container instructions are injected into the system prompt
