MEMORYBANK — Portable long-term memory store for agents, exposed over MCP

Part of the Cognis Neural Suite by Cognis Digital Cognis Open Collaboration License (COCL) v1.0 · domain: ai-agent

Portable long-term memory store for agents, exposed over MCP.

AI Agents & LLMOps — build, route, evaluate, and secure agentic systems.

Why

MEMORYBANK exists for one job — portable long-term memory store for agents, exposed over mcp — and does it without a SaaS bill or heavyweight setup. Single-purpose, scriptable, CI-friendly, self-hostable, and callable by AI agents over MCP.

Install

pip install cognis-memorybank
# or from this repo:
pip install -e ".[dev]"

Quick start

memorybank --version
memorybank scan .                      # scan the current project
memorybank scan . --format json
memorybank scan . --fail-on high       # non-zero exit for CI gates
memorybank mcp                         # expose as an MCP server (Cognis.Studio / Claude Desktop / Cursor)

Inspiration / prior art

Built in the spirit of agent memory, re-framed for the Cognis approach: single-purpose, self-hostable, MCP-native, and unified with the rest of the Suite. Missing a credit? Open a PR.

How it fits the Cognis Neural Suite

memorybank is one of the 100+ tools in the Cognis Neural Suite. Every tool ships an MCP server, so Cognis.Studio agents can call them as scoped capabilities.
