memory-bank-mcp
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for remote memory bank management
GraphCanon updated 1mo · GitHub synced 1mo
Decision brief
memory-bank-mcp is an MCP server implementation enabling remote memory bank management inspired by Cline Memory Bank.
Good fit when
- When your application requires a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that supports remote management of a memory bank, with inspiration from the Cline Memory Bank architecture.
- If you are working on systems needing TypeScript for development and prefer an MIT-licensed solution to manage model context through MCP.
Avoid when
- Avoid usage if your project's primary language is not compatible with or does not benefit from TypeScript, which memory-bank-mcp uses.
- If your application framework is incompatible with the Model Context Protocol (MCP) that this tool implements, then it should be avoided as it may cause undue integration challenges.

Installation
To install Memory Bank Server for Claude Desktop automatically via Smithery:
npx -y @smithery/cli install @alioshr/memory-bank-mcp --client claude
This will set up the MCP server configuration automatically. Alternatively, you can configure the server manually as described in the Configuration section below.
Quick Start
- Configure the MCP server in your settings (see Configuration section below)
- Start using the memory bank tools in your AI assistant
Running with Docker
-
Build the Docker image:
docker build -t memory-bank-mcp:local . -
Run the Docker container for testing:
docker run -i --rm \ -e MEMORY_BANK_ROOT="/mnt/memory_bank" \ -v /path/to/memory-bank:/mnt/memory_bank \ --entrypoint /bin/sh \ memory-bank-mcp:local \ -c "ls -la /mnt/memory_bank" -
Add MCP configuration, example for Roo Code:
"allpepper-memory-bank": { "command": "docker", "args": [ "run", "-i", "--rm", "-e", "MEMORY_BANK_ROOT", "-v", "/path/to/memory-bank:/mnt/memory_bank", "memory-bank-mcp:local" ], "env": { "MEMORY_BANK_ROOT": "/mnt/memory_bank" }, "disabled": false, "alwaysAllow": [ "list_projects", "list_project_files", "memory_bank_read", "memory_bank_update", "memory_bank_write" ] }
