Namespaced memory for multi-project OpenClaw setups
If you use one OpenClaw agent across multiple codebases, you've hit this: your agent recalls deployment configs from your backend repo while you're working on the frontend. Or it suggests a testing pattern from your side project in your day job's repo. Memories bleed across projects because there's one flat memory pool. MemoClaw namespaces fix this. Each project gets its own namespace, recalls are scoped by default, and you can still do cross-namespace lookups when you want shared context. The memory bleed problem Say you have three projects: a React frontend, a Node API, and a personal automation repo. Your agent learns things in each context — "this project uses Vitest," "deploy to Railway on merge," "Ana prefers tabs." Without namespaces, all of that goes into one bucket. When your agent recalls "how do we deploy this?" while you're in the frontend repo, it might pull up the backend's Railway config instead of the frontend's Vercel setup. This isn't theoretical. It happens as soon a
