Memorion CLI Quickstart
Access your recordings, transcripts and AI summaries from the terminal — or from any AI agent that can run shell commands.
1
Install Node.js
The CLI requires Node.js 20 or newer. Check your version with:
Terminal
node --version # needs v20 or newerIf you don't have Node.js, download it from nodejs.org — the LTS version is fine.
2
Install the CLI
Install globally with npm:
Terminal
npm install -g @memorion/cliOr run it without installing using npx @memorion/cli.
3
Log in
Terminal
memorion loginThis opens your browser. Sign in with the same account you use in the Memorion app (Google, Apple, or email) — the CLI receives its credentials automatically and you're done.
Credentials are stored in ~/.memorion/. Non-interactive environments (CI, agents) can use environment variables instead — see below.
4
Try it out
You're set. A few commands to start with:
Terminal
memorion today # today's recordings
memorion recent # last 7 days
memorion transcript <id> # full transcript
memorion summary <id> # AI summary + action items
memorion audio <id> -o out.wav # download the audio5
Use it from an AI agent
Every command accepts --json for machine-readable output, which makes the CLI easy to wire into agents like Claude Code. For headless environments, set credentials via environment variables:
Environment variables
export MEMORION_API_KEY=memorion_dev_prod_xxx
export MEMORION_USER_ID=<your_user_id>
memorion list --from 24h --jsonCommand reference

Troubleshooting
- • Exit code 3 (auth failed): run memorion login again.
- • No recordings listed: make sure you signed in with the same account as the Memorion app, and that the app has synced.
- • audio says the URL expired: download links are valid for 15 minutes — just run the command again.
