Install and configure the OpenViking long-term memory plugin for OpenClaw via natural conversation. Once installed, the plugin automatically captures facts from chats and recalls relevant context before each reply (auto-capture + auto-recall, cross-session). Covers prerequisites, install through OpenClaw's plugin manager (ov-install as backup), wizard-based configuration, slot activation, gateway restart, verification, multi-tenant root keys, multi-instance and uninstall. The user needs no CLI…

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

# Install OpenViking Memory — Agent Installation & Reference Skill

You are about to help a user install and configure the OpenViking memory plugin for OpenClaw.
The user does NOT know how to use a terminal. You will collect a few values through natural conversation, then run **all** commands yourself using your shell tool.

**Read this entire document before starting. Follow every step in order. Do NOT skip steps.**

This skill is split into two halves:

- **Part 1 (STEP 0–10): Natural-language installation walkthrough.** Use this on first install or reconfigure.
- **Part 2: Reference.** Tools, config schema, multi-tenant, multi-instance, daily ops, uninstall, error recovery. Read on demand.

> **Server scope.** This skill **does not** install the OpenViking server itself. It assumes the server is already running locally on `127.0.0.1:1933` or on another machine. If the user has no server, see "Server not ready" handling in STEP 5.

# Part 1 — Natural-Language Installation Walkthrough

## STEP 0: Detect Language

If the user's first message contains Chinese characters, respond in **Chinese** throughout.
Otherwise respond in **English**.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add volcengine/openviking/install-openviking-memory@sha256:bd602521a334f1fd

The line at the top of this page pins the label v2026.6.5, 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.
