01 · Install Neurodivergent Memory

before you install - you'll need

Set NEURODIVERGENT_MEMORY_DIR, NEURODIVERGENT_MEMORY_PROJECT_DIR, NEURODIVERGENT_MEMORY_USER_DIR before connecting.

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

license MIT - declared in the repository

npm package neurodivergent-memory - unscoped; check the name against the project README before installing

registry namespace io.github.jmeyer1980 is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner

03 · What Neurodivergent Memory can do

Prose above is summarized from the project's README and registry record - no invented capabilities.

What you can build

With this server connected, an agent can create new memory nodes with optional emotional valence and intensity, fetch a specific memory by ID, remove a memory and all its connections, and create bidirectional edges between memory nodes.

Yes - as of 2026-08-25, its last commit was 2026-08-14. We re-verify nightly.

What can Neurodivergent Memory do?

With this server connected, an agent can create new memory nodes with optional emotional valence and intensity, fetch a specific memory by ID, remove a memory and all its connections, and create bidirectional edges between memory nodes.

How do I install Neurodivergent Memory?

Run `npx -y neurodivergent-memory`. The README documents 3 environment variables (NEURODIVERGENT_MEMORY_DIR, NEURODIVERGENT_MEMORY_PROJECT_DIR, NEURODIVERGENT_MEMORY_USER_DIR) to set first. Set NEURODIVERGENT_MEMORY_DIR, NEURODIVERGENT_MEMORY_PROJECT_DIR, NEURODIVERGENT_MEMORY_USER_DIR before connecting. You can also paste the ready-made client config above.

Does Neurodivergent Memory run locally?

Yes - it's a stdio server: it runs on your machine (via npx) with your user's permissions. Your data stays local unless the server itself calls external APIs.
