Local Memory MCP

What it does

Provides a persistent, local-first memory layer for AI assistants. It stores learnings, decisions, and entity observations in a single SQLite file, ensuring that the AI remembers context across different chat sessions without using cloud APIs.

Tools

• memory_learn: Stores a piece of knowledge with category and content.
• memory_recall: Quick search specifically for stored learnings.
• memory_search: Unified FTS5 search across learnings, decisions, and entities.
• memory_decide: Records a decision with reasoning and alternatives.
• memory_entity_observe: Records facts about people, projects, or tools into a knowledge graph.
• memory_session_start: Loads context from previous sessions to prime the AI.
