Inspeximus MCP Server
Python agent memory in one zero-dependency file, plus an MCP server for Claude Code and Cursor. When a fact is corrected, inspeximus serves the new value and stops the stale one from coming back - deterministically, with no LLM in the loop. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.
People connecting memory tools to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Python.

01 · Install Inspeximus
Claude Code
claude mcp add dancenitra-inspeximus -- uvx inspeximus Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config
{
"mcpServers": {

02 · Evidence
Security posture
What to check before giving this server access to your agent - from the registry, GitHub, and our own probes. We don't score safety; we show what's verifiable.
runs as local process (stdio) - runs on your machine with your user's permissions
repo age created 2026-07-13 - young repo, little track record yet
license MIT - declared in the repository
pypi package inspeximus - check the name against the project README before installing (PyPI has no namespace ownership)
registry namespace io.github.DanceNitra is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner

06 · Inspeximus FAQ
What is Inspeximus?
Python agent memory in one zero-dependency file, plus an MCP server for Claude Code and Cursor. When a fact is corrected, inspeximus serves the new value and stops the stale one from coming back - deterministically, with no LLM in the loop. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.
Is Inspeximus still maintained?
Yes - as of 2026-08-25, its last commit was 2026-08-25 and it shipped 7 releases in the last 90 days. We re-verify nightly.
How do I install Inspeximus?
Run `uvx inspeximus`. You can also paste the ready-made client config above.
Does Inspeximus run locally?
Yes - it's a stdio server: it runs on your machine (via uvx) with your user's permissions. Your data stays local unless the server itself calls external APIs.
