Anamnesis MCP Server

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.

    probe = subprocess.run([node, "--version"], capture_output=True, text=True)
In the project's build, not in the package

Found in continuous integration, deployment or infrastructure files, or in a neighbouring package of the same monorepo. None of this is installed when you add the server: it describes how the project is built and released. We list it because a leaked key in a build pipeline is still a real problem, but it is not something this server does on your machine.

  serverProc = spawn(process.execPath, [serverJs], {
Builds a file path from a variable dashboard/src/lib/store.ts:37
      if (fsSync.existsSync(path.join(base, notePath(t, id)))) {

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.

Anamnesis — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Anamnesis?
Anamnesis 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 anamnesis-memory was installed 111 times last week.
How do I connect Anamnesis?
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 anamnesis-memory straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Anamnesis?
The pypi package anamnesis-memory was installed 111 times in the last week. Week over week that is +26%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Anamnesis open source?
Yes — it is published under the Apache-2.0 licence, written in Python 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.
