Nexusmem MCP Server

Your coding agent can read git log. It cannot read the four things you tried last Tuesday that didn't work. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.

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

01 · Install Nexusmem

Claude Code

claude mcp add yaminbkk-nexusmem -- npx -y nexusmem

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "yaminbkk-nexusmem": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "nexusmem"
      ]
    }
  }
}

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

Using another client? Same JSON, different key
