Visual Memory MCP

@putervision/vision-memory-mcp is a zero-infrastructure, local-first Model Context Protocol (MCP) server and CLI tool that provides AI coding assistants (such as Cursor, Claude Code, Gemini, or Copilot) with visual state caching using perceptual hashing, local CLIP embeddings, and transition graphs to eliminate repetitive vision LLM calls.

People connecting AI & ML tools to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in TypeScript.

01 · Install Visual Memory MCP

Claude Code

claude mcp add putervision-vision-memory-mcp -- npx -y @putervision/vision-memory-mcp

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "putervision-vision-memory-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@putervision/vision-memory-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.

Using another client? Same JSON, different key

npm package @putervision/vision-memory-mcp - published under the repo owner's npm scope (@putervision)

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