Project Memory MCP runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. 68 installs a week from npm. Last commit 7 Sep 2026.
Persistent memory for AI coding agents — past bugs, decisions, and your corrections, in your repo.
Today is the operative word: we check Project Memory MCP every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.
This server runs on your own machine — install it with the package manager and the client starts it for you. Package name taken from the official registry entry.

Optional settings from the registry entry, left out of the block above:
PROJECT_MEMORY_ROOT (Absolute path to the folder that holds your projects (the memory root). Defaults to the parent of the script if unset, so set it when running via npx).
Git-native memory for coding agents: gotchas, decisions and bookmarks as plain text in your repo.
Persistent project memory for AI coding agents: one compact digest instead of re-reading the repo.
Persistent local memory for MCP-compatible AI coding agents, stored per repository in SQLite.
Local-first engineering cognition for AI coding agents — persistent memory over your codebase.
Shared project memory for coding agents: decisions, lessons, guardrails and tasks per repository.
Team-aware memory: intent, decisions, real-time conflicts for AI coding assistants.
Persistent memory for AI coding agents. Hybrid search, auto-session capture, context routing.
Persistent, governed institutional memory for Claude Code — specs, decisions, learnings.
