engram-mcp — plug your Engram brain into any Claude Code / Desktop

Client pieces for an Engram brain: a stdio MCP server (tools search_brain, get_concept, list_concepts, add_memory) and the /engram-capture skill (push a whole conversation into the brain). No secrets in this repo — you supply your brain URL + token at setup. Works on macOS/Linux with Node 18+.

Install (per machine — repeat on each Mac)

git clone https://github.com/ankitjm/engram-mcp.git ~/engram-mcp
cd ~/engram-mcp && npm install

# 1) Register the MCP with Claude Code (tools appear in every session)
claude mcp add engram --scope user \
  --env ENGRAM_URL=https://brain.khosha.tech \
  --env ENGRAM_API_TOKEN=engr_YOUR_TOKEN \
  -- node ~/engram-mcp/mcp.js

# 2) (Optional) the /engram-capture skill
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r ~/engram-mcp/engram-capture ~/.claude/skills/
mkdir -p ~/.engram && cp ~/engram-mcp/config.example.json ~/.engram/config.json
# then edit ~/.engram/config.json: set token + password_sha256
#   node -e "console.log(require('crypto').createHash('sha256').update('YOUR_PASS').digest('hex'))"

Restart Claude Code. Every machine pointed at the same ENGRAM_URL + token shares one brain.
