What is the Dark MCP server?

Dark MCP server is a locally run integration for AI assistants that speak the Model Context Protocol. dark-memory-mcp binary for Linux (x86_64).

What you get

Imagina que tu agente IA es un asistente brillante que trabaja contigo todos los días. Cada día le pides algo nuevo: refactorizar una función, escribir un test, diseñar un workflow, recordar por qué tomaste una decisión la semana pasada.

What the assistant can call

Once Dark is connected, these are the calls the assistant has available:

  • Dual — spec clientInfo**: legacy initialize.clientInfo (2025-06-18) +
  • Proyecto — aplica a todo el proyecto (decisiones de arquitectura)
  • Operador — persiste por siempre, asociado a ti (preferencias personales)
  • dark_memory_redteam_list_mods — dark_memory_redteam_get_prompts
  • Herramienta — Cuándo se usa
  • dark_memory_project_create — Una vez: para crear un proyecto nuevo (como "crear un workspace")
  • dark_memory_session_start — Al comenzar a trabajar: abre tu sesión del día
  • dark_memory_session_resume — Si cerraste mal y quieres retomar
  • dark_memory_session_status — "¿En qué punto vamos?"
  • dark_memory_session_close — Al terminar: cierra la sesión limpio
  • dark_memory_research_topic — "Investiga X y dame un resumen"
  • dark_memory_research_recall — "¿Qué investigué antes sobre X?"

Setting it up

Setup follows the usual MCP pattern — install or clone the server, register it in your client's configuration file, restart the client. The configuration blocks on this page cover the common clients.

Choosing this one

Plenty of knowledge and memory 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. Dark's toolset — Dual, Proyecto, Operador and 11 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by nicourrutia98; 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We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.

Before you rely on it

  • It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
  • With 14 tools registered it takes up a noticeable share of the context window; turn it off in projects that never touch Dark.
  • MCP clients confirm each tool call by default. Leave that on until you have watched what the dark mcp server does with a few real requests.

Frequently asked questions

It connects Dark to MCP-compatible AI assistants such as Claude and Cursor, exposing 14 tools (Dual, Proyecto, Operador, and more) that the assistant can call on your behalf. Instead of copying data back and forth by hand, the assistant works with Dark directly.
