mcp-memory-service

Persistent Shared Memory for AI Agent Pipelines

Open-source memory backend for AI agents — REST API, MCP, OAuth, CLI, dashboard. One self-hosted service, every transport. Agents store decisions, share causal knowledge graphs, and retrieve context in 5ms — without cloud lock-in or API costs.

Works with LangGraph · CrewAI · AutoGen · any HTTP client · Claude Desktop · OpenCode

🌐 Works with claude.ai (Browser)

Unlike desktop-only MCP servers, mcp-memory-service supports Remote MCP for native claude.ai integration.

What this means:

• ✅ Use persistent memory directly in your browser (no Claude Desktop required)
• ✅ Works on any device (laptop, tablet, phone)
• ✅ Enterprise-ready (OAuth 2.0 + HTTPS + CORS)
• ✅ Self-hosted OR cloud-hosted (your choice)

5-Minute Setup:

# 1. Start server with Remote MCP enabled
MCP_STREAMABLE_HTTP_MODE=1 \
MCP_SSE_HOST=0.0.0.0 \
MCP_SSE_PORT=8765 \
MCP_OAUTH_ENABLED=true \
python -m mcp_memory_service.server

# 2. Expose via Cloudflare Tunnel (or your own HTTPS setup)
cloudflared tunnel --url http://localhost:8765
# → Outputs: https://random-name.trycloudflare.com

# 3. In claude.ai: Settings → Connectors → Add Connector
# Paste the URL: https://random-name.trycloudflare.com/mcp
# OAuth flow will handle authentication automatically

Production Setup: See Remote MCP Setup Guide for Let's Encrypt, nginx, and firewall configuration. Step-by-Step Tutorial: Blog: 5-Minute claude.ai Setup | Wiki Guide

Why Agents Need This

Without mcp-memory-service	With mcp-memory-service
Each agent run starts from zero	Agents retrieve prior decisions in 5ms
Memory is local to one graph/run	Memory is shared across all agents and runs
You manage Redis + Pinecone + glue code	One self-hosted service, zero cloud cost
No causal relationships between facts	Knowledge graph with typed edges (causes, fixes, contradicts)
Context window limits create amnesia	Autonomous consolidation compresses old memories

Key capabilities for agent pipelines:

• Framework-agnostic REST API — 15 endpoints, no MCP client library needed
• Knowledge graph — agents share causal chains, not just facts
• X-Agent-ID header — auto-tag memories by agent identity for scoped retrieval
• conversation_id — bypass deduplication for incremental conversation storage
• SSE events — real-time notifications when any agent stores or deletes a memory
• Embeddings run locally via ONNX — memory never leaves your infrastructure

Agent Quick Start

pip install mcp-memory-service
MCP_ALLOW_ANONYMOUS_ACCESS=true memory server --http
# REST API running at http://localhost:8000

import httpx

BASE_URL = "http://localhost:8000"
