# Zep MCP Server
Simple MCP server that wraps Zep Cloud API (v3) for use with Claude Code.
Enables Claude Code to store and retrieve memories using Zep's thread-based memory system.
## Installation
```bash
git clone https://github.com/yourusername/zep-mcp-server.git
cd zep-mcp-server
npm install
npm run build
```
## Configuration
Add to your `~/.claude.json`:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"zep": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["/absolute/path/to/zep-mcp-server/dist/index.js"],
"env": {
"ZEP_API_KEY": "z_your_zep_api_key"
}
}
}
}
```
Get your Zep API key from https://www.getzep.com
## Usage
Three tools available in Claude Code:
### zep_store_memory
Store information in a Zep session.
### zep_search_memory
Search for information in a Zep session.
### zep_get_memory
Get all recent memories from a session.
## Thread/Session Naming Convention
- Global knowledge: `global`
- Project-specific: `project-{name}`
- User-specific: `user-{username}`
Note: This server uses Zep Cloud v3 API which uses "threads" instead of "sessions". The tools still accept `session_id` for backwards compatibility.
## Example
```
Store in session 'global':
