This is a self-hosted memory layer that gives Claude persistent recall across conversations through 11 MCP tools. It automatically extracts entities from what you tell it, resolves that "Sarah" and "Sarah from Acme" are the same person, and builds a temporal knowledge graph you can query later. You get hybrid semantic and keyword search, temporal decay patterns, and conflict detection when memories contradict each other. The quickstart script spins up Remembra with Qdrant and Ollama locally in one command, no API keys required. It includes a dashboard for browsing entities and relationships, plus Python and TypeScript SDKs if you want to integrate it into your own tools. Useful when you need Claude to remember user preferences, past decisions, or relationship context beyond the current chat window.

expires_atEvery AI app needs memory. Your chatbot forgets users between sessions. Your agent can't recall decisions from yesterday. Your assistant asks the same questions over and over.
Existing solutions have tradeoffs:
from remembra import Memory
memory = Memory(user_id="user_123")
# Store — entities and facts extracted automatically
memory.store("Had a meeting with Sarah from Acme Corp. She prefers email over Slack.")
# Recall — semantic search finds relevant memories
result = memory.recall("How should I contact Sarah?")
print(result.context)
# → "Sarah from Acme Corp prefers email over Slack."
# It knows "Sarah" and "Acme Corp" are entities. It builds relationships.
# It persists across sessions, reboots, context windows. Forever.
curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/remembra-ai/remembra/main/quickstart.sh | bash
That's it. Remembra + Qdrant + Ollama start locally. No API keys needed.
Or with Docker Compose directly:
git clone https://github.com/remembra-ai/remembra && cd remembra
docker compose -f docker-compose.quickstart.yml up -d
Try it:
# Store a memory
curl -X POST http://localhost:8787/api/v1/memories \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"content": "Alice is CEO of Acme Corp", "user_id": "demo"}'
# Recall it
curl -X POST http://localhost:8787/api/v1/memories/recall \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"query": "Who runs Acme?", "user_id": "demo"}'
One command configures everything:
pip install remembra
remembra-install --all --url http://localhost:8787
This auto-detects and configures: Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Codex CLI, Cursor, Windsurf, Gemini.
Verify setup:
remembra-doctor all
Claude Desktop — add to ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"remembra": {
"command": "remembra-mcp",
"env": {
"REMEMBRA_URL": "http://localhost:8787",
"REMEMBRA_USER_ID": "default"
}
}
}
}
Claude Code:
claude mcp add remembra -e REMEMBRA_URL=http://localhost:8787 -- remembra-mcp
Cursor — add to .cursor/mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"remembra": {
"command": "remembra-mcp",
"env": {
"REMEMBRA_URL": "http://localhost:8787"
}
}
}
}
Now ask Claude: "Remember that Alice is CEO of Acme Corp" — then later: "Who runs Acme?"
pip install remembra
from remembra import Memory
memory = Memory(user_id="user_123")
memory.store("Had a meeting with Sarah from Acme Corp. She prefers email over Slack.")
result = memory.recall("How should I contact Sarah?")
print(result.context) # "Sarah from Acme Corp prefers email over Slack."
npm install remembra
import { Remembra } from 'remembra';
const memory = new Remembra({ url: 'http://localhost:8787' });
await memory.store('User prefers dark mode');
const result = await memory.recall('preferences');
