Local Memory MCP Server

Version 1.1.7 - AI-powered persistent memory system for developers working with Claude Code, Claude Desktop, and other MCP-compatible tools.

Transform your AI interactions with intelligent memory that grows smarter over time. Build persistent knowledge bases, track learning progression, and maintain context across conversations.

Key Features

• One-Command Install: npm install -g local-memory-mcp
• Smart Memory: AI-powered categorization and relationship discovery
• Lightning Fast: 10-57ms search responses with semantic similarity
• MCP Integration: Works seamlessly with Claude Desktop and other AI tools
• Persistent Context: Never lose conversation context again
• Enterprise Ready: Commercial licensing with security hardening

Quick Start

Installation

npm install -g local-memory-mcp

License Activation

# Get your license key from https://localmemory.co
local-memory license activate LM-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX

# Verify activation
local-memory license status

Start the Service

# Start the daemon
local-memory start

# Verify it's running
local-memory status

CLI Usage

Basic Memory Operations

# Store memories with automatic AI categorization
local-memory remember "Go channels are like pipes between goroutines"
local-memory remember "Redis is excellent for caching" --importance 8 --tags caching,database

# Search memories (keyword and AI-powered semantic search)
local-memory search "concurrency patterns"
local-memory search "neural networks" --use_ai --limit 5

# Create relationships between concepts
local-memory relate "channels" to "goroutines" --type enables

# Delete memories
local-memory forget <memory-id>

Advanced Search

# Tag-based search
local-memory search --tags python,programming

# Date range search
local-memory search --start_date 2025-01-01 --end_date 2025-12-31

# Domain filtering
local-memory search "machine learning" --domain ai-research

# Session filtering (cross-conversation access)
local-memory search "recent work" --session_filter_mode all

MCP Integration

Claude Desktop Setup

Add to your Claude Desktop configuration file:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "local-memory": {
      "command": "local-memory",
      "args": ["--mcp"],
      "env": {}
    }
  }
}

Available MCP Tools

When configured, Claude will have access to these memory tools:

• store_memory - Save important information
• search - Find memories with semantic search
• analysis - AI-powered Q&A on stored knowledge
• relationships - Discover and map memory connections
• categories - Organize memories intelligently
• Plus comprehensive memory management tools

REST API

When the daemon is running, REST API is available at http://localhost:3002:

# Search memories
curl "http://localhost:3002/api/memories/search?query=python&limit=5"

# Store new memory
curl -X POST "http://localhost:3002/api/memories" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"content": "Python dict comprehensions are powerful", "importance": 7}'

# Health check
curl "http://localhost:3002/api/v1/health"

Service Management

# Check daemon status
local-memory status

# Stop daemon
local-memory stop

# View running processes
local-memory ps

# Kill all processes (if needed)
local-memory kill-all

# System diagnostics
local-memory doctor

What's New in v1.1.7

• Advanced Relationship Discovery - Find related memories with similarity filtering and pagination
• Memory Graph Visualization - Map memory connections with configurable depth traversal
• Unified Architecture - Consistent parameters across CLI, MCP, and REST interfaces
• Enterprise Architecture - 268 lines of duplicate code eliminated for better maintainability
