Memoir
Give Claude Code or Cursor durable project memory that survives new chats and different machines while you ship.
Overview
Memoir is a Build-phase MCP server for agent-tooling that gives AI coding assistants persistent memory across sessions and machines.
What is this MCP server?
- Stdio MCP server (memoir-cli npm package v3.2.2) for local agent hosts
- Remembers context across separate coding sessions on the same project
- Syncs memory across machines so remote and laptop agents share continuity
- Targets AI coding assistants rather than generic chat-only bots
- No cloud API key in registry metadata—local-first persistent memory pattern
- Registry version 3.2.2
- npm package identifier memoir-cli
- Transport type stdio

What problem does it solve?
Every new agent chat forgets your stack choices and open threads, so you repeat yourself instead of shipping.
Who is it for?
Indie developers on long-running repos who live in Claude Code or Cursor and want cross-session continuity without building a custom memory stack.
Skip if: Teams that need audited, shared team knowledge bases with RBAC—Memoir is agent-local continuity, not a company wiki.
What do I get? / Deliverables
After you register memoir-cli over MCP stdio, your coding agent can reuse stored context on the next session or device without you re-briefing from scratch.
- Registered stdio MCP server exposing Memoir memory tools to your agent
- Reusable context across subsequent coding sessions
- Shared memory behavior when you use Memoir on more than one machine

MCP memory integration, not a Cursor rule file or a standalone RAG notebook.
Common Questions / FAQ
Who is Memoir for?
Solo and indie builders using MCP-enabled coding agents who want memory that persists after you close the chat or change computers.
When should I use Memoir?
Use it during active build work when the same codebase spans many agent sessions and you are tired of re-uploading context.
How do I add Memoir to my agent?
Install the memoir-cli npm package, add an stdio MCP server entry pointing at that CLI in Claude Code or your IDE MCP settings, then restart the host so tools load.
