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.

Runs a command on install [пакет] package.json:1

postinstall: node install.js

File ships in the package but is absent from the source [пакет] bin.js:1, [пакет] install.js:1

этот файл ставится пользователю, но в репозитории его нет

Builds a database query by concatenation .github/workflows/release.yml:246, test-infrastructure/Dockerfile:18, test-infrastructure/Dockerfile.lint:12 и ещё 1

      - name: Delete existing release
        if: ${{ inputs.replace }}

Builds a file path from a variable pkg/go/cmd/memory-for-ai/main.go:389, pkg/npm/install.js:365, [пакет] install.js:365

    archivePath := filepath.Join(tmp, "cbm."+ext)

Runs an external command pkg/npm/bin.js:23, pkg/npm/install.js:207, [пакет] bin.js:23 и ещё 1

  const probe = spawnSync(binPath, ['--version'], {

Runs an external command pkg/pypi/src/memory_for_ai/_cli.py:140

        subprocess.run(

Runs an external command src/foundation/compat_fs.c:390

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.

Memory for AI — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Memory for AI?

Memory for AI 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 npm package memory-for-ai-mcp was installed 30 times last week.

How do I connect Memory for AI?

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 memory-for-ai-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.

How many people use Memory for AI?

The npm package memory-for-ai-mcp was installed 30 times in the last week. Week over week that is -75%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.

Is Memory for AI open source?

Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in C and 0 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.
