AI Memory MCP Server

ai-memory is a persistent memory system for AI assistants. It works with any AI that supports MCP -- Claude, ChatGPT, Grok, Llama, and more. It stores what your AI learns in a local SQLite database, ranks memories by relevance when recalling, and auto-promotes important knowledge to permanent storage. Install it once, and every AI assistant you use remembers your architecture, your preferences, your corrections…

People who need memory tools inside Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Rust.
