Persistent, semantic memory for AI agents. Built for OpenClaw.
Your AI forgets everything between sessions. BrainDB fixes that.
It gives your assistant a memory system that automatically captures important context from conversations and recalls it when relevant — who you are, what you're working on, what you've told it before. Memories persist across compaction, session resets, and restarts.
How it works:
You say something → OpenClaw captures important facts → BrainDB stores them
You ask something → OpenClaw recalls relevant memories → AI has context
No commands. No manual saving. It just works.
Requires Docker and ~4 GB RAM.
openclaw plugin install braindb
Or manually:
git clone https://github.com/Chair4ce/braindb.git ~/.openclaw/plugins/braindb
cd ~/.openclaw/plugins/braindb
bash install.sh
First run: 3–5 minutes (downloads embedding model). After that: ~10 seconds.
What the installer does:
~/.openclaw/braindb-backup/~/.openclaw/openclaw.json) to enable the pluginReview install.sh before running if you want to understand each step.
Core operation is fully local:

node migrate.cjs --scan /path/to/workspace # Preview files (no data sent anywhere)
node migrate.cjs --dry-run /path/to/workspace # Extract facts locally, don't encode
node migrate.cjs --no-swarm /path/to/workspace # Import, fully local
node migrate.cjs /path/to/workspace # Import (uses swarm if available)
Your files are never modified. BrainDB copies facts from them — it doesn't replace anything.
BrainDB fails gracefully:
MEMORY.md and workspace files.Your workspace files are the safety net. BrainDB is additive — remove it and you're back to defaults with zero data loss.
openclaw plugin remove braindb
The uninstaller exports all memories (JSON + readable markdown), stops containers, removes the plugin config from OpenClaw, and leaves your workspace files untouched. Docker volumes are preserved until you explicitly delete them.
