Quickstart: CLI (5 Minutes)

Get Memanto working with real memory operations in under 5 minutes.

Prerequisites

Memanto installed (pip install memanto)
Moorcheh API key configured (memanto setup)
Terminal access

1. Check Status

Verify everything is set up:

memanto status

2. Create and Activate Your First Agent

Creating an agent now automatically activates a session for you, so you’re ready to go immediately.

memanto agent create quick-demo

Output:

✓ Agent 'quick-demo' created successfully
✓ Session activated for agent 'quick-demo'
Session ID:     session_abc123xyz
Session Token:  eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9...
Expires In:     6h 0m

Verify activation:

memanto status

3. Store Your First Memory

Store a simple fact:

memanto remember "Paris is the capital of France" --type fact

Store a preference:

memanto remember "I prefer responses in JSON format" --type preference

Store a commitment:

memanto remember "Will complete the project by Friday" --type commitment

4. Recall Memories

Retrieve memories using semantic search:

memanto recall "What is the capital of France?"

Recall by semantic similarity (not exact match):

memanto recall "What format should responses be in?"

5. Get AI-Powered Answers

Generate answers grounded in your memories:

memanto answer "Where is the capital of France and what format should I use?"

6. View Daily Summary (optional)

See all your memories and any conflicts:

memanto daily-summary

7. Detect Contradictions (optional)

Check for conflicting memories:

memanto conflicts

If you add a contradictory memory:

memanto remember "Paris is in Germany" --type fact

Then check conflicts:

memanto conflicts
