Trust and Privacy

Hybrid Memory is designed so you can inspect, verify, and control what persists.

Local-first by default

  • Memory data is stored on your machine unless you configure external providers.
  • Core persistence uses local SQLite and local vector storage.
  • Feature depth depends on your configured providers and mode.

What gets remembered

Depending on enabled capabilities, the system may retain:

  • Facts and preferences from conversation
  • Decisions and task outcomes
  • Procedures and workflow hints
  • Issues/episodes and derived summaries

Provenance and verification

Use these commands to inspect system health and memory behavior:

openclaw hybrid-mem verify
openclaw hybrid-mem stats
openclaw hybrid-mem search "query"

For deeper operational checks: OPERATIONS.md, TROUBLESHOOTING.md

Deletion and control

Use documented CLI paths to remove plugin state and memory artifacts:

openclaw hybrid-mem uninstall

Before deletion, consider backup/export:

openclaw hybrid-mem backup --dest ./backup
openclaw hybrid-mem export --help

Trust checklist

  • I know where memory is stored.
  • I can run verify and stats successfully.
  • I can search and inspect what is recalled.
  • I have a tested backup and restore workflow.
  • I know my deletion path (uninstall + cleanup docs).
