 +Note: If you do not provide OPENAI_API_KEY, the ask_memory tool will not be available, but you can still use create_or_open_memory, add_content, and search_memory (lexical mode).
 +
 +MEMVID_LOCAL_STORAGE Set to "1" to store memory files in ./memvid_mcp (current directory) instead of ~/.memvid_mcp.

 +
 +**This only work in external powershell not in VS Code sandbox. See troubleshooting**
 +If PATH only defined in non admin user $profile, use this command
 +
 +     ["powershell", "-Command", ". $PROFILE; npx -y memvid-mcp-server@latest"]
 +     
 +#### Troubleshooting
 +
 +VS Code use sandbox environment where non admin user $profile is not available.
 +
 +##### Set PATH
 +     powershell -Command "[Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable('Path', 'D:\devfs\python;D:\devfs\node-v24.15.0-win-x64;' + [Environment]::GetEnvironmentVariable('Path', 'User'), 'User')" 2>&1; echo "PATH_UPDATED:$?"
 +     
 +Edit PATH as non admin user:
 +
 +     rundll32 sysdm.cpl,EditEnvironmentVariables
 +
 +Add full PATH:
 +
 +     D:\devfs\python;D:\devfs\node-v24.15.0-win-x64;D:\devfs\node-v24.15.0-win-x64;D:\devfs\node-v24.15.0-win-x64;C:\Users\13223\.local\bin;C:\Users\13223\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps;C:\Users\13223\AppData\Local\Programs\Git\cmd;C:\Users\13223\AppData\Local\Programs\Microsoft VS Code Insiders\bin;C:\Users\13223\AppData\Local\Programs\DockerDesktop\resources\bin;D:\devfs\jdk-21.0.10+7\bin;D:\devfs\apache-maven-3.9.15\bin;D:\devfs\node-v24.15.0-win-x64;.local\bin;D:\devfs\vim92;
 +     
 +##### Set $env
 +
 +     [Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable("OPENAI_API_KEY", "sk-your-key-here", "User")
 +
 +Then restart your computer (not just VS Code) to ensure it propagates system-wide.
 +
 +Check $env in terminal:
 +  
 +     $env:OPENAI_API_KEY
 +
 +Alternative: Set it in VS Code's terminal settings If you need it available immediately in the integrated terminal regardless, add this to your VS Code settings.json:
 +
 +"terminal.integrated.env.windows": {
 +    "OPENAI_API_KEY": "sk-your-key-here"
 +}
