🔌 API

The worker exposes a REST API at http://localhost:37777:

# Health check
curl http://localhost:37777/health

# Search observations
curl "http://localhost:37777/api/search?q=authentication"

# Get timeline
curl "http://localhost:37777/api/timeline?project=my-app&days=7"

# Export data
curl "http://localhost:37777/api/export?format=json" > backup.json

# Get statistics
curl "http://localhost:37777/api/stats"


🗄️ Storage Dapp

Persistent, Postgres-backed storage for agents and apps. Live at app.moltbrain.dev/storage.

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|                                                                             |
|   BLOB STORAGE      Content-addressed JSON blobs via SHA-256                |
|   ----------         Store and retrieve data by hash. $0.01 per request.   |
|                                                                             |
|   MEMORY SLOTS      Named key-value slots for agent state                  |
|   ----------         Allocate, write, read. Persistent across sessions.    |
|                                                                             |
|   AGENT VAULT       Per-wallet scoping with label badges                   |
|   ----------         Connect the same wallet your agents use.              |
|                      Browse, view, and delete what they stored.            |
|                                                                             |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+

All endpoints are paid via x402 micropayments ($0.01 USDC on Base). Data is scoped per wallet, backed by Postgres, and survives redeploys.

Agents can tag stored data with a label (e.g. "openclaw_session", "virtuals_agent") so the vault shows what stored each item.

# Store a blob
curl -X POST https://app.moltbrain.dev/api/x402/store \
  -H "X-PAYMENT: <x402_header>" \
  -d '{"data": {"key": "value"}, "label": "my_agent"}'

# List your blobs
curl https://app.moltbrain.dev/api/x402/list/blobs \
  -H "X-PAYMENT: <x402_header>"

# Full catalog
curl https://app.moltbrain.dev/api/x402/catalog


🎮 Virtuals Protocol Integration

GAME SDK plugin that gives any Virtuals Protocol AI agent persistent memory and storage via MoltBrain.

npm install @moltbrain/game-plugin
import { GameAgent } from "@virtuals-protocol/game";
import { MoltBrainPlugin } from "@moltbrain/game-plugin";

const moltbrain = new MoltBrainPlugin({
  privateKey: process.env.AGENT_PRIVATE_KEY!, // wallet with USDC on Base
});

const agent = new GameAgent(process.env.GAME_API_KEY!, {
  name: "My Agent",
  goal: "Remember everything across sessions",
  description: "An agent with persistent memory via MoltBrain",
  workers: [moltbrain.getWorker()],
});

await agent.init();
await agent.step({ verbose: true });

9 functions available: moltbrain_chat, moltbrain_search, moltbrain_store, moltbrain_retrieve, moltbrain_allocate_slot, moltbrain_write_slot, moltbrain_read_slot, moltbrain_stats, moltbrain_capacity.

Everything the agent stores shows up in the vault dapp at app.moltbrain.dev/storage. Connect the same wallet to browse it.

Quick setup:

# As OpenClaw extension
cd ~/.openclaw/extensions
git clone https://github.com/nhevers/moltbrain.git moltbrain
cd moltbrain/integrations/openclaw
npm install && npm run build

# Enable the plugin (required for bundled installations)
pnpm openclaw plugins enable moltbrain

# Or via MCP
npm run mcp:start

Note: If installing as a bundled extension (in OpenClaw's extensions/ directory), you must explicitly enable it: pnpm openclaw plugins enable moltbrain

See integrations/openclaw/README.md for full setup guide.



📚 MoltBook Integration

Works with MoltBook - the social network for AI agents! Share memories, learn from other agents, and build collective knowledge.

Quick setup:

# Install MoltBook MCP integration
npm install --save @moltbrain/moltbook-mcp

# Configure in your MoltBrain settings
{
  "MOLTBRAIN_MOLTBOOK_ENABLED": true,
  "MOLTBRAIN_MOLTBOOK_API_URL": "https://moltbook.com"
}

See integrations/moltbook/README.md for full setup guide.
