Pin

Pin a memory to mark it as high-priority and protect from dream pruning.

Execution

Step 1: Find the memory

The user provides either a search query or memory ID.

If memory ID: Look it up directly.

If search query:

  • Use mem0_memory tool with action="search", query=<query>.
  • Show numbered list with content previews.
  • Ask: "Which memory to pin? Enter a number."

Step 2: Pin it

Pinning works by prepending [PINNED] to the memory text. This marker tells the dream consolidation to skip it during pruning.

Use mem0_memory tool with action="add", content="[PINNED] <original memory text>".

Then delete the original using mem0_memory with action="delete" and the original memory ID.

For new memories (user wants to pin text that isn't stored yet):

  • Use mem0_memory tool with action="add", content="[PINNED] <the user's text>".

Step 3: Confirm

Pinned: "<memory content, first 80 chars>"

Append ... only if content exceeds 80 characters.

Unpin

If the user says "unpin":

  1. Find the memory (search or by ID).
  2. Create a new memory without the [PINNED] prefix.
  3. Delete the pinned version.
  4. Print: Unpinned: "<content>..."
