Nowledge Mem

Search and browse your personal knowledge base from Raycast. Find memories, save insights, and read your daily Working Memory briefing without leaving your workflow.

Setup

1. Install and run Nowledge Mem desktop app
2. Install this extension from the Raycast Store
3. Choose one connection path:
   • Local default: leave settings alone and use the local Mem server at http://127.0.0.1:14242
   • Remote Mem: set Server URL and API Key in Raycast preferences, or configure ~/.nowledge-mem/config.json
4. Optional: set Space in Raycast preferences if this profile should stay in one named memory lane

The extension now supports the same remote auth shape used across other Nowledge integrations.

{
  "apiUrl": "https://mem.example.com",
  "apiKey": "nmem_your_key",
  "space": "Research Agent"
}

Commands

Command	Description
Search Memories	Search your knowledge base with natural language. Shows results ranked by relevance. When empty, shows recent memories from the configured space.
Add Memory	Save a quick memory with title, content, and importance level into the configured space.
Read Working Memory	Read today's Working Memory briefing from the Mem API, following the configured space if one is set.
Edit Working Memory	Open the Default Working Memory file in your default editor for quick local edits.

Actions

Every memory in search results supports:

• Copy Content — copy the full memory text
• Copy Title — copy just the title
• Open in Nowledge Mem — deep link to the memory in the desktop app

The Working Memory view supports:

• Copy Working Memory — copy the full briefing
• Open in Nowledge Mem — jump to the app

What Is Working Memory?

Each morning, Nowledge Mem generates a Working Memory briefing summarizing what you're focused on, what needs attention, and what changed. The Default space keeps ~/ai-now/memory.md; connected tools read the right briefing through the API or MCP when they know the active lane.

Configuration

Preference	Default	Description
Server URL	http://127.0.0.1:14242	Nowledge Mem server address. Leave as local default, or point it at your remote Mem URL.
API Key	empty	Optional remote Mem API key. Sent as Authorization: Bearer ... and X-NMEM-API-Key.
Space	empty	Optional fixed space name for this Raycast profile. Leave empty to use ~/.nowledge-mem/config.json if it defines a space, or Default if it does not.

If preferences are empty, the extension also checks ~/.nowledge-mem/config.json for apiUrl, apiKey, and space.

Spaces

Raycast is a launcher, not a multi-agent harness. The right model here is one optional fixed lane:

• Leave Space empty to follow ~/.nowledge-mem/config.json when it defines a lane, or Default when it does not
• Set Space when this Raycast profile always belongs to one stable lane, such as Research Agent or Personal
• Do not expect Raycast to derive per-agent routing on its own

Edit Working Memory remains a local convenience command for the Default file at ~/ai-now/memory.md. If you configure another space, read it through the API-backed command and edit it in the Mem app.

Notes

• Remote support: search, add memory, and read Working Memory all support authenticated remote Mem access.
• Space-aware recall: Search, Add Memory, and Read Working Memory follow the optional fixed space from Raycast preferences or ~/.nowledge-mem/config.json.
• Edit Working Memory remains a local-file convenience command for the Default space. For remote-only setups, or for other spaces, edit through the Nowledge Mem app or API instead.
• Graph visualization is available through the desktop app and MCP-native hosts (Claude Code, Codex) which support interactive canvas rendering. Raycast's UI model does not support embedded web views, so graph exploration is not included in this extension.
