In the current AI tool ecosystem, a significant pain point is the isolation between tools. Whether you plan a roadmap in Claude or implement specific tasks in Cursor, these tools are unaware of each other's work. Once the session ends, your context disappears. OpenMemory MCP was born and is designed to solve this problem.

What is OpenMemory MCP?

OpenMemory MCP is a private memory solution built on the open Model Context Protocol (MCP) and powered by mem0ai. It runs completely locally and provides a persistent, portable memory layer for all MCP-compatible AI tools. This enables a variety of AI assistants and tools to securely and privately read and write shared memory.

Core Features

  • ✅Cross  -client compatibility : supports MCP clients such as Cursor, Claude Desktop, Windsurf, Cline, etc.
  • ✅  Standardized memory operations : provide standard interfaces such as add_memories, search_memory, list_memories, delete_all_memories, etc.
  • ✅Complete  local storage : All data is stored on the user's local computer to ensure privacy and security
  • ✅Centralized  control panel : provides a visual interface for convenient monitoring and management
  • ✅Easy  deployment : Docker-based setup, no vendor lock-in

Value for developers

For developers building applications on top of MCP, OpenMemory MCP provides the easiest way to add persistent, private memory capabilities to clients without cloud dependencies, allowing users to maintain full local control.

Practical Application

Through this technology, users can create a seamless experience between different AI tools. For example, the project plan discussed in Claude can be directly obtained when programming in Cursor. Each tool shares the same context, which significantly improves work efficiency.

The release of OpenMemory MCP marks an important step for the AI ​​tool ecosystem to be more integrated and collaborative, providing users with a more coherent and intelligent AI assistant experience.
