nowledge-mem-bub 0.7.2

Nowledge Mem plugin for Bub — cross-ai context for your agent.

Nowledge Mem — Bub Plugin

Bring your cross-tool knowledge into Bub, and share what you learn in Bub with every other tool.

Bub records every session through its tape system. This plugin connects Bub to your personal knowledge graph in Nowledge Mem — so decisions from Claude Code, preferences from Cursor, and insights from ChatGPT are all searchable inside Bub. And what you learn in Bub flows back to every other tool.

Install

pip install nowledge-mem-bub

Prerequisite: nmem CLI must be in your PATH:

pip install nmem-cli    # or: pipx install nmem-cli
# Arch Linux: yay -S nmem-cli  # or: paru -S nmem-cli
nmem status             # verify connection

Verify

uv run bub hooks        # should list nowledge_mem for system_prompt, build_prompt, save_state
uv run bub run "what was I working on this week?"

If you have existing knowledge in Nowledge Mem, the agent should find it through mem.search.

Tools

Tool	What it does
mem.search	Search knowledge from all your tools. Supports label and date filters.
mem.save	Save a decision, insight, or preference so any tool can find it.
mem.context	Read Context Bundle — identity, active scope, active rules, and Working Memory.
mem.connections	Explore how a piece of knowledge relates to others across tools and time.
mem.timeline	Recent activity grouped by day.
mem.forget	Delete a memory by ID.
mem.threads	Search past conversations from any tool.
mem.thread	Fetch full messages from a conversation with pagination.
mem.status	Connection and configuration diagnostics.

All tools work as Bub comma commands too: ,mem.search query=...

Bundled skill: The nowledge-mem skill teaches the agent when and how to use these tools effectively.

Configuration

No config needed for local use. The plugin reads ~/.nowledge-mem/config.json and environment variables automatically.

Customize without editing the plugin

Bub does not currently expose a dedicated user-owned instruction file through this package.

• Use Bub's own runtime prompt or configuration surface if you need extra behavior guidance.
• Keep connection and lane behavior in shared config or env vars.
• Do not patch the installed Bub plugin files directly.

Variable	Default	What it does
NMEM_SESSION_CONTEXT	false	Inject Context Bundle + recalled knowledge each turn
NMEM_SESSION_DIGEST	true	Feed Bub conversations into Mem for other tools to find
NMEM_SPACE	(unset)	Ambient space lane for this Bub process
NMEM_API_URL	(local)	Remote Nowledge Mem server URL
NMEM_API_KEY	(none)	API key for remote access

Remote Access

// ~/.nowledge-mem/config.json
{
  "apiUrl": "https://your-server",
  "apiKey": "your-key"
}

Or use environment variables (NMEM_API_URL, NMEM_API_KEY), which override the config file.

Two Modes

Mode	Config	What happens
Default	nothing	The agent searches and saves on demand. Conversations flow into Mem for other tools to find.
Session context	NMEM_SESSION_CONTEXT=1	Context Bundle and relevant knowledge injected automatically each turn.

Most users should start with the default.

If one Bub process naturally belongs to one project or agent lane, set NMEM_SPACE="Research Agent" before launch. All CLI-backed Context Bundle, search, save, and thread commands will then stay in that lane. Legacy NMEM_SPACE_ID still works for older setups.

Bub is process-scoped today: if you run multiple Bub agents that need different memory lanes, give each process its own NMEM_SPACE (or keep them on Default). Shared spaces, default retrieval, and agent guidance still come from Mem's shared /spaces profile.

Troubleshooting

nmem not found: Install with pip install nmem-cli or pipx install nmem-cli.

Plugin not loading: Run uv run bub hooks and check that nowledge_mem appears in the hook list.

Server not running: Start the Nowledge Mem desktop app, or run nmem status for diagnostics.
