Durable user/project memory for MCP clients: recall context and remember selected facts.
If you already use GoodMemory, the goodmemory mcp server is the piece that lets your assistant work with it directly. Durable user/project memory for MCP clients: recall context and remember selected facts.
GoodMemory is a memory layer for AI products and coding agents.
The toolset is worth reading before you wire it up, because it tells you what the integration is really for:
Local — first storage: Bun gets durable SQLite by default; explicit Postgres,host — codex, claude, or both detected hostsactivation — global, current workspace, or manual opt-inBenchmark — Primary metricBecause this one is hosted, setup is mostly authentication — you point your client at the endpoint and approve access. Nothing runs on your machine, so there is no runtime to keep patched.
Configuration is passed through the environment: YOUR_USER_ID, GOODMEMORY_USER_ID. Treat anything key-shaped as a real credential — scope it to the minimum the server needs, and rotate it if it ever lands in a shared config.
Plenty of database access servers cover similar ground. The differences that matter in practice are scope of access and how much setup stands between you and a working tool call. GoodMemory's toolset — Local, host, activation and 1 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by hjqcan; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.
