meko-cli

Search, save a memory, and upload a file on Meko running locally

meko-cli works with the datapacks on your computer: list them, search them, save a memory, and upload a file. meko runs the server; meko-cli talks to it.

The installer puts both commands in ~/.local/bin. The server has to be running, and meko status has to show the context engine ready, or meko-cli fails.

search, add_memory, upload, and upload_status take --datapack. Without it, they use the default datapack Meko creates on first start. Meko creates that datapack only once, so after it is deleted, those commands need --datapack.

While this Meko is linked to Meko Cloud, those four commands use Meko Cloud's default datapack if you don't specify --datapack. The name is looked up on your computer and in Meko Cloud, and a datapack that exists on your computer is used there.

meko-cli runs one command and exits.

Get help

Typing a meko-cli command after meko, such as meko search, does not run it. meko prints the meko-cli command and exits.

Run meko-cli with no command to list the commands. <command> --help prints that command's flags.

Commands

search, add_memory, upload, and upload_status take --datapack NAME|ID. Every command takes --data-dir. --json prints the raw reply, except on export.

Command What it does
meko-cli datapacks List datapacks by name, with their descriptions. --json adds each id. While Meko Cloud is linked, this includes Meko Cloud's datapacks and this computer's.
meko-cli create_datapack <name> Create a datapack. While Meko Cloud is linked, the new datapack is created there.
meko-cli delete_datapack <name|id> [--force] Delete a datapack and everything in it. It asks first. --force skips the question.
meko-cli export [<name|id>] [-o FILE] [--force] Write one datapack on this computer to a zip: memories, collective memories, conversations, knowledge files, artifacts, and the call log. export only writes a datapack that is on your computer. It will not replace a file unless you pass --force.
meko-cli search "<question>" [--source S] [--limit N] Search memories, the knowledge base, and past conversations. --source is memory, knowledge_base, or conversation. The default is all three. --limit caps each source (default 8).
meko-cli add_memory "<text>" Save a memory, word for word. - or no text reads stdin.
meko-cli upload <file>... [--no-wait] Add PDF, text, Markdown, JSON, CSV, XML, or HTML files, up to 50 MiB each, and wait until they are indexed. --no-wait returns once the upload is accepted.
meko-cli upload_status <key> How an uploaded file is doing.

To connect an agent, or to link Meko Cloud, use meko. The Quick start walks through both.
