Memory OS AI

Memory OS AI

Adaptive memory system for AI agents — universal MCP server for Claude Code, Codex CLI, VS Code Copilot, ChatGPT, and any MCP-compatible client.

Tests Coverage Python MCP VS Code Version License

Concept

Memory OS AI transforms your local documents (PDF, DOCX, images, audio) into a semantic memory queryable by any AI model through the MCP (Model Context Protocol).

Features

  • 21 MCP tools for memory management, search, chat persistence, project linking, and cloud storage

  • Semantic search with FAISS + SentenceTransformers (all-MiniLM-L6-v2)

  • Multi-format ingestion: PDF, DOCX, TXT, images (OCR), audio (Whisper), PPTX

  • Chat extraction: auto-detects Claude, ChatGPT, Copilot, and terminal history

  • Cross-project linking: share memory across multiple workspaces

  • Cloud storage overflow: auto-backup to Google Drive, iCloud, Dropbox, OneDrive, S3, Azure, Box, B2

  • 3 transports: stdio (default), SSE (--sse), Streamable HTTP (--http)

  • MCP Resources: memory://documents/*, memory://logs/conversation, memory://linked/*

  • Local-first: all data on your machine by default, cloud only when disk runs low

Cloud Storage (v3.1.0)

When local disk runs low (< 500 MB free by default), memory data automatically overflows to a configured cloud backend.

Usage

# Configure via environment (auto-activates on server start)
export MEMORY_CLOUD_PROVIDER=icloud
export MEMORY_CLOUD_CONFIG='{"container": "memory-os-ai"}'
memory-os-ai

# Or configure at runtime via MCP tool:
#   memory_cloud_configure(provider="s3", credentials={"bucket": "my-bucket", ...})
#   memory_cloud_status()       → local disk + cloud usage
#   memory_cloud_sync("push")   → backup to cloud
#   memory_cloud_sync("pull")   → restore from cloud
#   memory_cloud_sync("auto")   → offload if disk low
