OpenCode plugin for persistent memory using Supermemory. Your agent remembers what you tell it, across sessions and across projects.
bunx opencode-supermemory@latest install
bunx opencode-supermemory@latest login # or set SUPERMEMORY_API_KEY
bunx opencode-supermemory@latest status # check the connection any timeOr let your agent do it: paste this into OpenCode:
Install opencode-supermemory by following https://raw.githubusercontent.com/supermemoryai/opencode-supermemory/main/README.md
install, login, logout, and status are also available as in-chat commands
(/supermemory-init, /supermemory-login, /supermemory-logout, /supermemory-status)
once the plugin is registered.
Instructions for LLM agents
If you're an LLM agent helping set up opencode-supermemory, follow these steps:
Step 1: Run the installer
bunx opencode-supermemory@latest install --no-tuiThis registers the plugin in ~/.config/opencode/opencode.jsonc and creates the
/supermemory-init command. Add --disable-context-recovery if the user also has
Oh My OpenCode installed, to avoid its auto-compact hook
fighting with this plugin's compaction.
- Register the plugin in
~/.config/opencode/opencode.jsonc - Create the
/supermemory-indexcommand (/supermemory-initis an alias)
cat ~/.config/opencode/opencode.jsoncShould contain "plugin": ["opencode-supermemory"]. If not, add it manually:
Step 3: Authenticate
bunx opencode-supermemory@latest loginFor headless environments, set SUPERMEMORY_API_KEY manually, or create
~/.config/opencode/supermemory.jsonc:
{
"apiKey": "sm_...",
}Step 4: Verify setup
Tell the user to restart OpenCode and run bunx opencode-supermemory@latest status. If
it's not connected, check: the user is authenticated (or SUPERMEMORY_API_KEY is set),
the plugin is in opencode.jsonc, and ~/.opencode-supermemory.log for errors.
Step 5: Initialize codebase memory (optional)
Run /supermemory-index to have the agent explore and memorize the codebase. /supermemory-init is an alias.
| 🧠 Context injection On a session's first message, the agent silently receives your profile, all project knowledge, and (if autoRecallEveryPrompt is on) a semantic search over personal memories. |
🔎 Reasoned recall Every turn, the agent is shown a directive asking it to decide whether recalling memory would help before answering. It searches via the supermemory tool only when it decides to; the search itself is auto-approved. |
| 💾 Automatic capture Completed turns are saved every captureEveryNTurns turns, with any remainder flushed when the session ends or OpenCode shuts down. Synthetic plugin context is excluded and <private> content is redacted. |
🗣️ Keyword detection Saying "remember", "save this", "don't forget", or a custom pattern nudges the agent to save to memory. |
🧭 Codebase indexing/supermemory-init has the agent explore and memorize the codebase's structure, patterns, and conventions. |
🗜️ Preemptive compaction At 80% context capacity, triggers OpenCode's summarization, injects project memories into the summary, and saves the summary itself as a memory. |
| 🔒 Privacy Content wrapped in <private>...</private> is never stored. |
🔔 Update notices Checks npm for a newer release on session start and surfaces a one-line notice. |
[SUPERMEMORY]
User Profile:
- Prefers concise responses
- Expert in TypeScript
Project Knowledge:
- [100%] Uses Bun, not Node.js
- [100%] Build: bun run build
Relevant Memories:
- [82%] Build fails if .env.local missing
The agent uses this context automatically - no manual prompting needed.
On every substantive prompt, Supermemory directly searches the current project and injects up to five strong, fresh matches. Short prompts and commands are skipped, repeat results are suppressed per session, and recall fails open after three seconds so it never blocks the agent indefinitely.
Set recallMode to "advisory" to retain model-decided tool recall, or to
"off" to disable automatic recall. recallDirective customizes advisory mode.
Legacy autoRecallEveryPrompt: true maps to direct mode and false maps to
advisory mode when recallMode is unset.
Completed conversations are captured automatically:
- Every
captureEveryNTurnscompleted turns, OpenCode saves the new turn batch. - Any remaining turns are flushed when the session is deleted or the OpenCode instance shuts down.
- Synthetic plugin context is excluded and
<private>content is redacted. - Stable capture IDs make repeated lifecycle events idempotent.
Say "remember", "save this", "don't forget" etc. and the agent auto-saves to memory.
You: "Remember that this project uses bun"
Agent: [saves to project memory]
Add custom triggers via keywordPatterns config.
Run /supermemory-index to explore and memorize your codebase structure, patterns, and conventions. /supermemory-init is an alias.
When context hits 80% capacity:
Set SUPERMEMORY_DEBUG=1 to show a [recall-decision] line in each reply while testing
recall.
The supermemory tool is available to the agent:
| Mode | Args | Description |

query, scope? |
Search memories |
profile |

Scopes: user (personal memories for the current project), project (default)
Types: project-config, architecture, error-solution, preference, learned-pattern, conversation
OpenCode sends the same shared coding-agent entity context as Claude Code and Codex.
Personal and project memories are distinguished with sm_scope metadata inside the
shared repository container.
| Scope | Tag | Metadata |
|---|---|---|
| User | repo_{project-name}__{repository-hash} |
sm_scope: "personal" |
| Project | repo_{project-name}__{repository-hash} |
sm_scope: "project" |
The repository hash comes from the normalized Git origin remote, so Claude Code,
Codex, Cursor, and OpenCode use the same container for the same repository.
Repositories with the same name but different remotes remain isolated. Without an
origin remote, OpenCode falls back to the repository's real filesystem path.
OpenCode also reads previous user_project_*, repo_<project-name>,
claudecode_project_*, codex_user_*, codex_project_*, opencode_user_*,
opencode_project_*, cursor_user_*, and cursor_project_* containers, so upgrading
does not require a migration.
| Variable | Purpose |
|---|---|
SUPERMEMORY_API_KEY |
Your Supermemory API key (takes precedence over the config file). |
SUPERMEMORY_API_URL / SUPERMEMORY_BASE_URL |
Override the Supermemory API base URL. |
SUPERMEMORY_AUTH_URL |
Override the browser-auth base URL. |
SUPERMEMORY_AUTH_TIMEOUT |
Browser-auth timeout in milliseconds (default 5 minutes). |
SUPERMEMORY_REPO_TAG |
Explicit project-container override, checked before the config value. |
SUPERMEMORY_ISOLATE_WORKTREES |
Set to true to key the project container on the worktree path instead of the Git remote. |
SUPERMEMORY_DEBUG |
Set to show [recall-decision] lines and enable debug logging. |

By default, new writes use:
- Repository tag:
repo_{project-name}__{hash(normalized-origin-remote)} - No origin remote:
repo_{project-name}__{hash(real-repository-path)}
Older {prefix}_user_* and {prefix}_project_* containers remain readable.
userContainerTag is treated as a legacy personal read. You can still override the
unified write container with projectContainerTag:
{
// Continue reading a personal container made by an older version
"userContainerTag": "my-team-workspace",
// Override the unified container used for new writes
"projectContainerTag": "my-awesome-project",
}This is useful to preserve a legacy personal memory container, sync memories between machines for the same project, organize memories with your own naming scheme, or integrate with existing Supermemory container tags from other tools.
If you're using Oh My OpenCode,
disable its built-in auto-compact hook to let supermemory handle context compaction
(or pass --disable-context-recovery to install):
{
"disabled_hooks": ["anthropic-context-window-limit-recovery"]
}Add that to ~/.config/opencode/oh-my-opencode.json.
