Start the API

In the same terminal:

$env:MEMORY_API_TOKEN="<DEV_FALLBACK_TOKEN>"
$env:MEMORY_API_PORT="8787"
$env:MEMORY_API_TEAM_SLUG="demo"
$env:MEMORY_API_USER_EMAIL="owner@example.test"
$env:MEMORY_API_SERVER_EMBEDDINGS="1"
npm run memory:api

Leave this terminal running.

Expected server log:

backend: pglite
listening on :8787

For hosted deployment, the health response should show backend: postgres.

Next: Log in as owner
