Genome MCP Server

local only

Genome runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. 662 installs a week from pypi. Last commit 4 Sep 2026.

Fully local memory for AI agents: zero-LLM ingest, semantic recall, air-gapped, auditable.

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 an external command tools/render_demo_gif.py:54
    proc = subprocess.run([sys.executable, str(ROOT / "examples" / "demo_timeline.py")],

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.

Genome — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Genome?
Genome 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 genome-memory was installed 662 times last week.
How do I connect Genome?
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 genome-memory straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Genome?
The pypi package genome-memory was installed 662 times in the last week. Week over week that is -27%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Genome open source?
Yes — it is published under the Apache-2.0 licence, written in Python and 6 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.
