Coding Tools

Give your coding tools persistent memory. Same vault, same memories — whether you're chatting in OpenClaw or coding in Cursor.

How It Works

MemoryRouter acts as a proxy between your coding tool and your AI provider. Set ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL or OPENAI_BASE_URL to MemoryRouter's endpoint, and every request gets relevant memories injected automatically.

Coding Tool → MemoryRouter → AI Provider → Response
                  ↑
          injects relevant memories

Your API keys pass through untouched (BYOK). MemoryRouter just adds context.

Read-Only Keys

For coding tools, use a read-only key so coding sessions don't pollute your memory vault with tool calls and file diffs.

Take your normal key:

mk_40a267...

Add ro_ after mk_:

mk_ro_40a267...

That's it. Read-only keys inject memories but never store. No new key to generate — it's the same key with a prefix convention.

Setup

Claude Code

export ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL=https://api.memoryrouter.ai/v1
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-...        # Your real Anthropic key
export MEMORY_KEY=mk_ro_your-key-here      # Read-only memory key

OpenAI Codex

export OPENAI_BASE_URL=https://api.memoryrouter.ai/v1
export OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...               # Your real OpenAI key
export MEMORY_KEY=mk_ro_your-key-here      # Read-only memory key

Cursor

In Cursor settings, set the API base URL to:

https://api.memoryrouter.ai/v1

Set your MEMORY_KEY environment variable to your read-only key.

Windsurf

Same pattern — set the base URL to https://api.memoryrouter.ai/v1 in your Windsurf configuration and export MEMORY_KEY.

Aider

export OPENAI_API_BASE=https://api.memoryrouter.ai/v1
export OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...
export MEMORY_KEY=mk_ro_your-key-here

Continue, Cody, and others

Any tool that supports a custom base URL works. Point it at https://api.memoryrouter.ai/v1 and set the MEMORY_KEY environment variable.

Cross-Tool Memory

The killer feature: all your tools share the same memory vault.

• Chat with your AI in OpenClaw at night → memories stored
• Code in Cursor the next morning → those memories are injected
• Switch to Codex for a different task → same context available

One vault. Every tool. Unified memory across your entire workflow.

Read-Only vs Read-Write

Recommended: Use read-only keys for coding tools. Coding sessions generate tons of tool calls, file diffs, and intermediate output that would add noise to your vault. Read-only gives you the context without the clutter.
