}This one needs environment variables set before it will start:
MEMORY_DIR (Absolute path to the folder holding your markdown memories. Required — the server never searches your disk for it.), MEMORY_ROOT (Optional. Where the embedding model cache, vector cache and indexes are kept. Defaults beside the code for a clone, ~/.agentic-recall for a package install.).
