Subject: [PATCH 1/2] chore(docker): disable Mem0 telemetry in container config
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Set MEM0_TELEMETRY=false in Docker compose, CLI template, and
.env.example. Mem0's telemetry initializes an extra vector store
to stage usage data before shipping to Mem0's servers — disabling
it reduces startup overhead and keeps all data local.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] fix(docker): use variable substitution for MEM0_TELEMETRY

Allow users to override the default (false) via .env file.
Hardcoded environment values in compose override env_file.
