loci MCP Server

local only

loci runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. 1 144 installs a week from pypi. Last commit 11 Sep 2026.

Scoped memory for coding agents: picks the right project, answers in scope, or abstains.

What the code does

We read the source, 23 h ago · rules 3dff92dd89df

Capabilities

What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.

            p = subprocess.run(["graphify", "update", str(scope.root)],

Is this your server and something here is wrong? Tell us — corrections are free and do not require a plan.

This code can reach further than it looks

We found places where it runs commands, builds paths or queries from values it is given. None of that is a flaw by itself — it becomes one when the code changes, and code changes quietly between releases. We re-read it on every one.

loci — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for loci?
loci runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the pypi package loci-mem was installed 1 144 times last week.
How do I connect loci?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls loci-mem straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use loci?
The pypi package loci-mem was installed 1 144 times in the last week. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is loci open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in Python and 1 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
