Copilot Memory MCP

Persistent semantic memory for GitHub Copilot in VS Code. A local MCP server that gives Copilot durable, project-scoped memory across sessions. Memories are stored in an embedded ChromaDB vector database with all-MiniLM-L6-v2 embeddings, enabling semantic retrieval (RAG). Everything runs in a single Docker container - no cloud services required.

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