Memorium
Provides graph-based memory representation and relationship tracking via Neo4j.
Enables local embedding generation and LLM inference using Ollama models.
Leverages OpenAI's API for embeddings and LLM-powered memory processing.
Scales memory storage using PostgreSQL as the primary database backend.
Accelerates memory retrieval and caching through Redis.
Supports lightweight, file-based local storage through SQLite.
Click on "Install Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@MemoriumRemember my name is Alex and I like hiking"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
Memorium
Persistent Memory Infrastructure for AI Agents
Memorium is an open-source, self-hostable Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that gives AI assistants persistent long-term memory. Install once, connect to any MCP-compatible client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, etc.), and your AI finally remembers you.

Automatic Memory - AI detects and stores important information without manual commands
7 MCP Tools -
remember,search_memory,retrieve_context,update_memory,forget_memory,list_memories,memory_statsMCP Resources - Expose memories as readable resources (
memora://default/context,memora://default/memories)Context Injection - Auto-inject relevant memories as context before answering
Intelligent Pipeline - Extraction → Classification → Importance Scoring → Dedup → Conflict Resolution → Storage
6 Memory Types - Profile, Preference, Semantic, Episodic, Procedural, Project
Hybrid Search - Keyword + tag + importance + recency ranking
Memory Consolidation - Background merging of related memories, cleanup of expired entries
Duplicate Detection - Automatic detection and skipping of duplicate information
Conflict Resolution - Detects contradictions, marks outdated information while keeping history
Sensitive Data Protection - Automatically detects and blocks passwords, API keys, tokens
Local-First - All data stored locally by default, no external APIs required
Privacy-First - You own all your data. Encryption option available.

Installation
pip install memoriumOr with uvx (no install needed):
uvx memoriumOptional Dependencies
# PostgreSQL support
pip install memorium[postgres]
# Qdrant vector search
pip install memorium[qdrant]
# Redis caching
pip install memorium[redis]
# Neo4j graph memory
pip install memorium[neo4j]
# LLM providers
pip install memorium[ollama,openai,gemini]
# Everything
pip install memorium[all]Quick Start
1. Initialize configuration
memorium initThis creates ~/.memorium/config.yaml with default settings.
2. Start the MCP server
memorium serve3. Connect to your AI assistant
Claude Desktop
Add to your claude_desktop_config.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"memora": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["memorium"]
}
}
}Cursor
Add to Cursor MCP configuration:
{
"mcpServers": {
"memora": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["memorium"]
}
}
}How It Works
When you chat with your AI:
You share information naturally
The AI calls
remember()to store important detailsBefore answering, the AI calls
retrieve_context()to fetch relevant memoriesMemories are automatically extracted, classified, scored, deduplicated, and stored
User: "My name is Khalid and I prefer Python for AI projects."
AI detects important information → calls remember()
Memory stored:
{
"type": "preference",
"content": "User prefers Python for AI projects",
"importance": 0.9
}
Later:
User: "What programming language do I prefer for AI?"
AI calls retrieve_context("programming language preference")
→ retrieves memory → answers correctlyConfiguration
Configuration is stored in ~/.memorium/config.yaml:
storage:
type: sqlite # sqlite | postgres
sqlite_path: ~/.memorium/memora.db
embedding:
provider: ollama # ollama | openai | gemini
model: nomic-embed-text
llm:
