Diagnose and fix the OpenViking memory plugin for Codex on this machine: the plugin install (enablement, hooks, MCP server), the client configuration (ovcli.conf / ov.conf / OPENVIKING_* env) and the connection to the OpenViking server (reachability, 401/403, /mcp). Use whenever memory "isn't working": no <openviking-context> block, empty recall, captures not landing, missing or failing MCP memory tools, 401/403, an offline statusline, right after installing/updating the plugin or switching…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# OpenViking Memory Doctor (Codex) Troubleshooting for the OpenViking memory plugin. Three things go wrong on a user's machine, each silently: - **Install** — marketplace registration, `[plugins."openviking-memory@openviking"]` and `[features] hooks` (or legacy `plugin_hooks`) in `~/.codex/config.toml`, per-hook trust records, the stdio MCP proxy. When these are wrong, hooks never run and nothing is logged anywhere. - **Configuration** — `~/.openviking/ovcli.conf`, `~/.openviking/ov.conf` and `OPENVIKING_*` environment variables. A malformed file reads as "no config" and the plugin silently falls back to `http://127.0.0.1:1933` with no key; a stray env var silently overrides the file. - **Connection** — on a self-hosted server `/health` answers 200 even with a bad key, so everything can look reachable while every real request 401s. On OpenViking Cloud the gateway authenticates `/health` and `/ready` too, so the same probe answers 401 without a key and says nothing about the url. When the resolved url is loopback, the server runs on this machine and the doctor adds a **Server health** section: whether anything listens on the …

How to install
mdr add volcengine/openviking/ov-memory-doctor@sha256:0a85e1529f237be2The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261026.d6271e6, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
