Default configuration
Memory model
Mem0 also needs an OpenAI-compatible text endpoint for extracting useful memories:localhost inside Docker does not refer to the host.
Persistence and privacy
- Keep
MEM0_DIRinside the persistent/app_datamount. - Include memory data in backups and protect it like presentation content.
- Hosted memory-model endpoints receive the context sent for memory extraction.
- Set
MEM0_ENABLED=falsewhen iterative memory is unnecessary or the workflow must avoid that processing.
