+MemoryRelay works **alongside** OpenClaw's built-in memory system (not as a replacement):
 
-## API
+**OpenClaw Built-in Memory** (local):
+- Workspace files (`MEMORY.md`, `memory/*.md`)
+- Fast local access, version control friendly
+- Tools: `memory_search`, `memory_get`
+- Scope: Per-agent, stays on disk
 
-The plugin includes a TypeScript client for MemoryRelay API:
+**MemoryRelay Plugin** (cloud):
+- Cloud-backed API storage
+- Cross-agent sharing, persistent
+- Tools: `memory_store`, `memory_recall`, `memory_forget`
+- Scope: Shared across agents, 900+ memories
 
-```typescript
-class MemoryRelayClient {
-  async store(content: string, metadata?: Record<string, string>): Promise<Memory>
-  async search(query: string, limit?: number, threshold?: number): Promise<SearchResult[]>
-  async list(limit?: number, offset?: number): Promise<Memory[]>
-  async get(id: string): Promise<Memory>
-  async delete(id: string): Promise<void>
-  async health(): Promise<{ status: string }>
-}
+**Both systems run together** - use built-in for local context, MemoryRelay for long-term cross-agent knowledge.

-## Examples
+## Known Limitations
 
-### Basic Usage
+### Status Display Issue
 
-```javascript
-// Agent conversation:
-// User: "Remember that I prefer TypeScript over JavaScript"
-// Agent uses: memory_store({ content: "User prefers TypeScript over JavaScript" })
+**Symptom**: `openclaw status` shows "Memory: unavailable" even when plugin is working.
 
-// Later:
-// User: "What language should we use?"
-// Agent uses: memory_recall({ query: "programming language preference" })
-// → Finds previous preference and suggests TypeScript
-```
+**Root Cause**: OpenClaw's status command checks the built-in MemoryIndexManager, not plugin tools. This is an OpenClaw architecture limitation, not a bug in this plugin.
+
+**Impact**: Cosmetic only - all plugin functionality works perfectly:
+- ✅ memory_store, memory_recall, memory_forget tools work
+- ✅ AutoRecall and AutoCapture work
+- ✅ API connectivity works (921 memories stored)
+- ❌ Status display shows wrong system
 
-### CLI Workflow
+**Workaround**: Verify plugin functionality directly instead of relying on status:
 
 ```bash
-# Store memory
-openclaw memoryrelay store "Project uses Kubernetes on AWS EKS"
+# 1. Check plugin loaded
+openclaw plugins info plugin-memoryrelay-ai
+# Should show: Status: loaded
 
-# Search later
-openclaw memoryrelay search "kubernetes setup"
-# → Returns relevant infrastructure memories
+# 2. Check logs for connection
+journalctl -u openclaw-gateway --since '1 minute ago' | grep memory-memoryrelay
+# Should show: "memory-memoryrelay: connected to https://api.memoryrelay.net"
 
-# List all
-openclaw memoryrelay list --limit 20
+# 3. Test memory_store tool
+openclaw agents <your-agent> --one-shot "Store test: Plugin works"
 
-# Delete old memory
-openclaw memoryrelay forget --id abc123
+# 4. Test memory_recall tool
+openclaw memoryrelay search "plugin works"
+
+# 5. Check API directly
+curl -H "X-API-Key: YOUR_KEY" https://api.memoryrelay.net/v1/memories?agent_id=YOUR_AGENT&limit=1
 ```
 
+**Why This Happens**: OpenClaw has two separate memory systems:
+1. `memory.backend` (top-level, status checks this)
+2. `plugins.slots.memory` (plugin tools, status ignores this)
+
+Our plugin provides tools (#2), but status checks the backend (#1). Fixing this requires OpenClaw core changes to check plugin status when a memory slot is configured.
+
+**Upstream Issue**: Tracked in [openclaw/openclaw#TBD](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues) (pending)

 ## Changelog
 
+### v0.5.3 (2026-02-14) - Documentation Update
+
+**Clarifications:**
+- ✅ Documented that plugin works ALONGSIDE built-in memory (not as replacement)
+- ✅ Added "Known Limitations" section explaining status display issue
+- ✅ Provided verification steps for users (don't rely on `openclaw status`)
+- ✅ Clarified architecture: two memory systems working together
+- ✅ Explained Voyage comparison (embedding provider vs storage provider)
+
+**No Code Changes:**
+- Plugin functionality unchanged (already working perfectly)
+- Tools work: memory_store, memory_recall, memory_forget ✅
+- AutoRecall/AutoCapture work ✅
+- 921 memories stored in production ✅
+
+**Key Finding:**
+- Status shows "unavailable" because OpenClaw checks built-in MemoryIndexManager, not plugin tools
+- This is an OpenClaw architecture limitation requiring upstream fix
+- All plugin functionality verified working despite status display
