mem0-mcp is a community-listed Model Context Protocol server. Review the source repository before installation.
WHAT IT CONNECTS
What mem0-mcp gives an AI Agent
The source catalog does not include a structured feature list. Review the repository documentation before use.
SECURITY
An MCP listing is not a security review
An MCP server may receive model context, credentials, local files, or permission to call external systems. Review its code, requested environment variables, network behavior, package provenance, and maintenance status before connecting it to an agent.

Thank you to the 640+ stargazers, 140+ forkers, and every contributor who helped shape this project. Your support and feedback meant the world to us.
Looking for Mem0 MCP? We now offer an official cloud-hosted MCP server. Check out the docs to get started.
Quick install across all major clients:
npx mcp-add \
--name mem0-mcp \
--type http \
--url "https://mcp.mem0.ai/mcp" \
--clients "claude,claude code,cursor,windsurf,vscode,opencode"mem0-mcp-server wraps the official Mem0 Memory API as a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server so any MCP-compatible client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, custom agents) can add, search, update, and delete long-term memories.
The server exposes the following tools to your LLM:
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
add_memory |
Save text or conversation history (or explicit message objects) for a user/agent. |
search_memories |
Semantic search across existing memories (filters + limit supported). |
get_memories |
List memories with structured filters and pagination. |
get_memory |
Retrieve one memory by its memory_id. |
update_memory |
Overwrite a memory's text once the user confirms the memory_id. |
delete_memory |
Delete a single memory by memory_id. |
delete_all_memories |
Bulk delete all memories in the confirmed scope (user/agent/app/run). |
delete_entities |
Delete a user/agent/app/run entity (and its memories). |
list_entities |
Enumerate users/agents/apps/runs stored in Mem0. |
All responses are JSON strings returned directly from the Mem0 API.
There are three ways to use the Mem0 MCP Server:
- Python Package - Install and run locally using
uvxwith any MCP client - Docker - Containerized deployment that creates an
/mcpHTTP endpoint - Smithery - Remote hosted service for managed deployments
uv pip install mem0-mcp-serverOr with pip:
pip install mem0-mcp-serverAdd this configuration to your MCP client:
{
"mcpServers": {
"mem0": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["mem0-mcp-server"],
"env": {
"MEM0_API_KEY": "m0-...",
"MEM0_DEFAULT_USER_ID": "your-handle"
}
}
}

To test the server immediately, use the included Pydantic AI agent:
# Install the package
pip install mem0-mcp-server
# Or with uv
uv pip install mem0-mcp-server
# Set your API keys
export MEM0_API_KEY="m0-..."
export OPENAI_API_KEY="sk-openai-..."
# Clone and test with the agent
git clone https://github.com/mem0ai/mem0-mcp.git
cd mem0-mcp-server
python example/pydantic_ai_repl.pyUsing different server configurations:
# Use with Docker container
export MEM0_MCP_CONFIG_PATH=example/docker-config.json
export MEM0_MCP_CONFIG_SERVER=mem0-docker
python example/pydantic_ai_repl.py
# Use with Smithery remote server
export MEM0_MCP_CONFIG_PATH=example/config-smithery.json
export MEM0_MCP_CONFIG_SERVER=mem0-memory-mcp
python example/pydantic_ai_repl.pyThe Mem0 MCP server enables powerful memory capabilities for your AI applications:
- Remember that I'm allergic to peanuts and shellfish - Add new health information to memory
- Store these trial parameters: 200 participants, double-blind, placebo-controlled study - Save research data
- What do you know about my dietary preferences? - Search and retrieve all food-related memories
- Update my project status: the mobile app is now 80% complete - Modify existing memory with new info
- Delete all memories from 2023, I need a fresh start - Bulk remove outdated memories
- Show me everything I've saved about the Phoenix project - List all memories for a specific topic
MEM0_API_KEY(required) – Mem0 platform API key.MEM0_DEFAULT_USER_ID(optional) – defaultuser_idinjected into filters and write requests (defaults tomem0-mcp).MEM0_ENABLE_GRAPH_DEFAULT(optional) – Enable graph memories by default (defaults tofalse).MEM0_MCP_AGENT_MODEL(optional) – default LLM for the bundled agent example (defaults toopenai:gpt-4o-mini).
