How do I install the sapience mcp server?

Use a recorded configuration for your client, replace example credential values and paths, and verify the documented runtime. Restart or reconnect the client, then inspect the available tools.

What credentials does it need?

It reads `SAPIENCE_DATA_DIR`, `OPENAI_API_KEY`, `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` from the environment. Store these in your client's env block or a secrets manager — never commit them to a repository — and grant the narrowest scope that still covers your use case.

What is the Sapience MCP Server?

Human-like memory and a judgment ledger for AI — an MCP server for Claude Code.

The short version

An LLM has intelligence — it processes and analyzes brilliantly — but it's amnesiac between sessions and never accumulates your experience. Humans win on something else: memory that persists and judgment that gets sharper because we keep track of how our past calls turned out. That faculty — the one that makes Homo sapiens more than raw brainpower — is what Sapience adds to your AI.
