    Use only Bezalel memory__search with mode=memories. Search for the preference that Josh wants Hermes to use the Bezalel MCP directly for creating, updating, searching, and forgetting memories because it is faster. Return whether a clearly matching active memory was found and include its ID and text. Do not use any write or forget tool.

    # AGENTS.md
    
    This file provides context for AI coding assistants (Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Codex, etc.) working with the Mem0 repository.
    
    ## Project Overview
    
    **Mem0** ("mem-zero") is an intelligent memory layer for AI agents and assistants. It provides persistent, personalized memory via both a hosted platform API and self-hosted open-source SDKs.
    
    - **Repository**: https://github.com/mem0ai/mem0
    - **Documentation**: https://docs.mem0.ai
    - **License**: Apache-2.0
    
    ## Repository Structure
    
    This is a **polyglot monorepo** containing Python and TypeScript packages, CLIs, servers, plugins, and documentation.
    
    ### Key Directories
    
    | Directory | Description |
    |-----------|-------------|
    | `mem0/` | Core Python SDK (`mem0ai` on PyPI) — memory, LLMs, embeddings, vector stores, graphs, rerankers |
    | `mem0-ts/` | TypeScript SDK (`mem0ai` on npm) — client + OSS memory |
    | `cli/python/` | Python CLI (`mem0-cli` on PyPI) — Typer-based, entry point `mem0` |
    | `cli/node/` | Node CLI (`@mem0/cli` on npm) — Commander-based, entry point `mem0` |
    | `integrations/` | **Agent & editor integrations**, one directory per integration (see "Adding a New Integration") |
    | `integrations/mem0-plugin/` | AI editor plugins (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex) — MCP server connection, lifecycle hooks, skills. Contains nested `.opencode-plugin/` (`@mem0/opencode-plugin`) |
    | `integrations/openclaw/` | `@mem0/openclaw-mem0` — OpenClaw plugin for Claude Code / AI editors |
    | `integrations/pi-agent-plugin/` | `@mem0/pi-agent-plugin` — Pi Agent plugin |
    | `integrations/vercel-ai-sdk/` | `@mem0/vercel-ai-provider` — Vercel AI SDK memory provider |
    | `integrations/n8n-nodes-mem0/` | `@mem0/n8n-nodes-mem0` — n8n community node; add / search / get / update / delete memories |
    | `integrations/zapier-mem0/` | `@mem0/zapier` — Zapier Platform CLI app (deploys to Zapier, not npm); add / search / get / delete memories |
    | `server/` | FastAPI REST server for self-hosted Mem0 (Docker: FastAPI + PostgreSQL/pgvector + Neo4j) |
    | `skills/` | Claude Code skill definitions. Reference skills (SDK knowledge, always-on): `mem0/`, `mem0-cli/`, `mem0-vercel-ai-sdk/`. Pipeline skills (run on demand): `mem0-integrate/`, `[SECRET-REMOVED]/`, `[SECRET-REMOVED]/` |
    | `docs/` | Documentation site (Mintlify) |
    | `tests/` | Python SDK tests (pytest) |
    | `evaluation/` | Submodule → [`mem0ai/memory-benchmarks`](https://github.com/mem0ai/memory-benchmarks) — benchmarking (LOCOMO, LongMemEval, BEAM) lives in that repo |
    | `examples/` | Sample projects & runnable demos — apps, Chrome extension, multi-agent patterns, and Jupyter notebooks (`notebooks/`) |
    | `pr-reviews/` | Pull request review materials |
    | `scripts/` | Repo-wide utility scripts (e.g., `check-llms-txt-coverage.py` for docs/llms.txt sync) |

    ## Development Setup
    
    ### Requirements
    
    - **Python**: 3.9+ (3.10+ for CLI)
    - **Node.js**: v18+ (v20 or v22 recommended)
    - **pnpm**: v10+ (`npm install -g pnpm@10`) — used for all TypeScript packages
    - **Hatch**: Python build/environment tool (`pip install hatch`)
    - **Docker**: Required for `server/` development
    
    ### Initial Setup
    
    ```bash
    # Python SDK
    hatch shell dev_py_3_11           # creates environment with all deps
    pre-commit install                # install git hooks
    
    # TypeScript packages
    cd mem0-ts && pnpm install        # TS SDK
    cd cli/node && pnpm install       # Node CLI
    cd integrations/vercel-ai-sdk && pnpm install  # Vercel AI provider
    cd integrations/openclaw && pnpm install       # OpenClaw plugin
    ```

    ### Python SDK (`mem0/`)
    
    ```bash
    # Environment setup (uses Hatch)
    hatch shell dev_py_3_11           # or dev_py_3_9, dev_py_3_10, dev_py_3_12
    
    # Linting and formatting
    make lint                          # ruff check
    make format                        # ruff format
    make sort                          # isort mem0/
    
    # Tests
    make test                          # pytest tests/
    make test-py-3.9                   # test specific Python version (3.9–3.12)
    
    # Build and publish
    make build                         # hatch build
