Simple Memory MCP

Titled notes an assistant can store and recall across sessions, with a local web page for managing them by hand.

LABSCO SUMMARY

The list-then-fetch split is the design decision that matters.

Returning titles and timestamps from the list call, and bodies only on request, is what keeps a growing memory store from eating the context window every time the assistant checks what it knows. The web interface earns its place too: memory that only an assistant can read is memory you cannot correct. If several assistants are open at once they share one server and one database, so a note written in one shows up in the other.

What it is

A memory server that keeps titled notes in a local database and gives the assistant four tools to work with them, plus a fifth that opens a browser interface for editing them yourself. Storing is deliberately two-step: the assistant asks for a title first, then the content.

What you get

  • store_memory saves a new note, requiring both a title and content
  • list_memory_titles returns the titles and timestamps only — not the bodies — so listing stays cheap in context
  • get_memory_by_title pulls the full content of one note once you know which one you want
  • delete_memory removes a note
  • open_memory_web starts the local web interface and opens a browser at it, triggered by asking the assistant to open memory
  • The web interface adds full-text search across titles and content, drag-to-reorder, and copy, edit and delete on each card
  • A single-instance design: several assistants connecting at once share one running server and one database rather than starting rival copies

Requirements

Node.js 16.0.0 or higher. Clone the repository, run npm install and npm run init-db to create the database, then point the client at start-mcp.js with the project directory as cwd. The published package is simple-memory-mcp, version 1.3.0. The web interface defaults to http://localhost:8011 and moves to another port automatically if that one is taken.

Setup effort

Build from source — git clone https://github.com/eragonht1/simple-memory-mcp.git
