Report the Basic Memory for Codex configuration, reachability, hook expectations, recent Codex checkpoints, and active tasks.
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
# Basic Memory For Codex Status
Gather a concise diagnostic. Do not over-investigate.
## Gather
1. CLI reachability:
- `basic-memory --version`
- fallback `bm --version`
- fallback `uvx --prerelease=allow basic-memory --version`
Keep going if no launcher resolves. The plugin hook scripts can still use
their uv-managed environment; report hook health as unavailable instead of
claiming the hooks cannot work.
2. Plugin config:
- read `~/.codex/basic-memory.json`, then the nearest project
`.codex/basic-memory.json`; project keys override user keys
- report the resolved `primaryProject`, `secondaryProjects`, `teamProjects`,
`captureFolder`, `rememberFolder`, `recallTimeframe`, `focus`,
`sessionProfile`, `repository`, `checkpointOnCompact`, and `captureEvents`
- resolve omitted Codex defaults as `rememberFolder=codex/remember`,
and `checkpointOnCompact=true`
3. Core hook health:
- with the first available launcher, run
`basic-memory hook status --harness codex --project-dir <repo-root>`
- report the shared inbox path, pending envelopes, archived envelopes, last
…Read the whole file at its exact version.
How to install
mdr add basicmachines-co/basic-memory/bm-status@sha256:f312aaa4fdaaa149The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260908.f610687, 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.
