Graph-MIND — Claude Code MCP server: memory and setup
Graph-MIND keeps conversation memory on your computer and lets connected AI agents retrieve useful past context in later sessions.
claude mcp add graph-mind -- uvx graph-mind-memoryWhat Graph-MIND does
Graph-MIND gives AI agents one shared memory store on your computer. Conversations are kept word for word, while local retrieval combines word matches, semantic search and timestamps. When a question depends on earlier work, the server can return the relevant turns instead of the whole history.
A background capture service works with transcripts, hooks and plugins from supported clients. Semantic retrieval uses an mpnet embedding model in ONNX with int8, and it does not require a GPU. Secrets are masked before storage. You can move selected or complete memory with graph-mind export FILE and graph-mind import FILE. A manual MCP setup exposes the tools, but it does not save every conversation automatically.
What it helps with
- recover a decision from an earlier session
- share context between Claude Code and Codex
- look up a past change in a project
- keep agent memory on a local computer
Example prompts for the agent
- Recall which database we chose for the billing service and why.
- Find what we changed in the authentication middleware last week.
- Use the saved project context when answering this question.
