Memory Context MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that gives LLMs persistent, semantic memory using vector search.

Built with Python, ChromaDB, and the official MCP SDK, this server allows AI models to store, search, update, and delete knowledge — and recall it across sessions using cosine-similarity vector search, not just keyword matching.

Features

• Vector Search — Semantic similarity search powered by sentence-transformers (runs 100% locally).
• MCP Protocol — Exposes store_memory, search_memory, update_memory, delete_memory as MCP tools.
• MCP Prompts — Slash-command style prompts (recall_topic, memory_summary, recall_session) for compatible LLM clients.
• Interactive CLI — A polished terminal interface with /commands for manual database management.
• Namespace Isolation — Memories are grouped by namespace to prevent cross-project leakage.
• Security — Size limits, tag validation, and local-only storage.
