Local Testing with Claude Code / Codex

Before publishing, you can test the MCP server locally by pointing to the built entry file:

Claude Code:

claude mcp add mem9 -e MEM9_API_KEY=your-key -e MEM9_API_URL=http://localhost:8080 -- node /path/to/mem9-mcp/dist/index.js

Or in .mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mem9": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/path/to/mem9-mcp/dist/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "MEM9_API_URL": "http://localhost:8080",
        "MEM9_API_KEY": "your-key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Codex:

codex mcp add mem9 -- node /path/to/mem9-mcp/dist/index.js

Or in .codex/config.toml:

[mcp_servers.mem9]
command = "node"
args = ["/path/to/mem9-mcp/dist/index.js"]

[mcp_servers.mem9.env]
MEM9_API_URL = "http://localhost:8080"
MEM9_API_KEY = "your-key"

After code changes, run npm run build and restart the MCP client to pick up the new build.
