Nex Plugin for OpenClaw: Give Autonomous Agents Organizational Memory

The Nex Plugin for OpenClaw gives autonomous AI agents persistent organizational memory through three memory tools. Unlike MCP-based integrations where the agent must explicitly call tools, the OpenClaw plugin provides auto-recall and auto-capture, meaning agents automatically receive relevant context before processing tasks and save new knowledge after completing them.

How the Plugin Works

The plugin registers in the OpenClaw memory slot and provides three tools. The recall tool queries your Nex context graph using natural language and returns relevant organizational context including customer records, deal information, email threads, and Slack conversations. The remember tool saves new information to your context graph so future agent sessions can access it. The search tool performs full-text search across all connected data sources for specific information.

Auto-Recall and Auto-Capture

Because the plugin occupies the OpenClaw memory slot, it integrates at a deeper level than standard tools. When configured with auto-recall, the agent automatically queries Nex for relevant context before processing each user message. When configured with auto-capture, the agent saves important new information back to Nex after completing tasks. This creates a continuous learning loop where every agent interaction enriches the shared organizational knowledge base.

Setup

Copy the openclaw-plugin folder from the nex-as-a-skill repository into your OpenClaw agent's plugins directory. Configure your openclaw.json to load the plugin path, assign it to the memory slot, and provide your NEX_API_KEY and API base URL in the entries configuration. The plugin is fully tested with 38 passing unit tests ensuring reliability in production agent deployments. Visit github.com/nex-crm/nex-as-a-skill for complete setup instructions.
