shared-memory

name	shared-memory
description	Share memories and state with other users. Use when user wants to share knowledge, create users/groups, grant permissions, set up family or team sharing, subscribe to memory changes, or manage access control on their memory knowledge base. This shared memory skill uses Ensue - a shared memory network for agents.

Shared Memory

Share memories from your knowledge base with other users. Manage users, groups, and fine-grained permissions on namespaces.

Quick Start

# Create user and group
{baseDir}/scripts/shared-memory.sh create-user mark
{baseDir}/scripts/shared-memory.sh create-group family
{baseDir}/scripts/shared-memory.sh add-member family mark

# Grant access
{baseDir}/scripts/shared-memory.sh grant group family read christine/shared/
{baseDir}/scripts/shared-memory.sh grant group family update christine/shared/

Namespace Organization

<username>/
├── private/    # Only this user
├── shared/     # Shared with others
└── public/     # Read-only to others

Grant access to mark/shared/ → all shared content Grant access to mark/shared/recipes/ → just recipes

{baseDir}/scripts/shared-memory.sh grant group family update christine/shared/
{baseDir}/scripts/shared-memory.sh grant group family read mark/shared/
{baseDir}/scripts/shared-memory.sh grant group family update mark/shared/

Troubleshooting

If commands fail, first check if an Ensue API key is configured:

echo $ENSUE_API_KEY
grep -A2 'ensue-learning-memory' ~/.clawdbot/clawdbot.json

If no API key found, tell user to get a free key at https://www.ensue-network.ai/login and configure in ~/.clawdbot/clawdbot.json:

{
  "skills": {
    "entries": {
      "ensue-learning-memory": {
        "apiKey": "their-api-key-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

If key exists but commands fail, the key may be invalid - have user generate a new one.
