What is the Saihm MCP server?

Connect Saihm to Claude, Cursor or any other MCP client and it stops being a tab you switch to. Sovereign encrypted persistent memory for AI agents. 8 MCP tools. GDPR erasure. Apache-2.0. The saihm mcp server is what makes that connection.

What the server does

A Model Context Protocol server that exposes eight tools any MCP-capable AI agent (Claude Code, Claude Desktop, custom agents) can call to gain a persistent, encrypted memory layer the user owns:

Available tools

The toolset is worth reading before you wire it up, because it tells you what the integration is really for:

  • saihm_remember — store an encrypted memory cell
  • saihm_recall — retrieve and decrypt your memories
  • saihm_forget — true cryptographic erasure (GDPR Art. 17)
  • saihm_status — your protocol-runtime stats and storage tier dashboard
  • Local — first, then deep-archive.** A typical operator routes writes to a
  • Per — call abort window.** Each request runs under an AbortController that aborts after 30s, preventing a hung endpoint from starving the MCP server
  • Response — size cap.** Responses whose Content-Length exceeds 16 MB are rejected before deserialisation

Credentials and setup notes

Configuration is passed through the environment: SAIHM_ENDPOINT_URL, SAIHM_AUTH_HEADER. 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.

Installation

Because 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.

Where it fits

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. Saihm's toolset — saihm_remember, saihm_recall, saihm_forget and 11 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by SAIHM-Admin; 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We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.

Worth knowing first

  • Your data travels to the provider's service, so the usual questions apply about what you send and what they retain.
  • With 14 tools registered it takes up a noticeable share of the context window; turn it off in projects that never touch Saihm.
  • Missing credentials fail quietly in some clients — if no tools show up, check the environment block first.
  • Keep per-call confirmation enabled while you learn its behaviour; it is the cheapest safeguard you have.

  • Use Saihm to saihm forget.

Frequently asked questions

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