memory-plus 0.1.6

A memory management server using FastMCP

Memory-Plus

A lightweight, local Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) memory store for MCP agents. Memory-Plus lets your agent record, retrieve, update, and visualize persistent "memories"—notes, ideas, and session context—across runs.

🏆 First Place at the Infosys Cambridge AI Centre Hackathon!

Key Features

• Record Memories：Save user data, ideas, and important context.
• Retrieve Memories：Search by keywords or topics over past entries.
• Recent Memories：Fetch the last N items quickly.
• Update Memories：Append or modify existing entries seamlessly.
• Visualize Memories：Interactive graph clusters revealing relationships.
• File Import (since v0.1.2)：Ingest documents directly into memory.
• Delete Memories (since v0.1.2)：Remove unwanted entries.
• Memory for Memories (since v0.1.4)：Now we use resources to teach your AI exactly when (and when not) to recall past interactions.
• Memory Versioning (since v0.1.4)：When memories are updated, we keep the old versions to provide a full history.

Installation

1. Prerequisites

Google API Key Obtain from Google AI Studio and set as GOOGLE_API_KEY in your environment.

Note that we will only use the Gemini Embedding API with this API key, so it is Entirely Free for you to use!

Setup Google API Key Example

# macOS/Linux
export GOOGLE_API_KEY="<YOUR_API_KEY>"

# Windows (PowerShell)
setx GOOGLE_API_KEY "<YOUR_API_KEY>"

UV Runtime Required to serve the MCP plugin.

Install UV Runtime

pip install uv

Or install via shell scripts:

# macOS/Linux
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh

# Windows (PowerShell)
powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://astral.sh/uv/install.ps1 | iex"

VS Code One-Click Setup

Click the badge below to automatically install and configure Memory-Plus in VS Code:

This will add the following to your settings.json:

  {
    "mcpServers": {
      //...,  your other MCP servers
      "memory-plus": {
        "command": "uvx",
        "args": [
          "-q",
          "memory-plus@latest"
        ],
      }
    }
  }

For cursor, go to file -> Preferences -> Cursor Settings -> MCP and add the above config. If you didn't add the GOOGLE_API_KEY to your secrets / environment variables, you can add it with:

"env": {
        "GOOGLE_API_KEY": "<YOUR_API_KEY>"
      }

just after the args array with in the memory-plus dictionary.

For Cline add the following to your cline_mcp_settings.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    //...,  your other MCP servers
    "memory-plus": {
      "disabled": false,
      "timeout": 300,
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "-q",
        "memory-plus@latest"
      ],
      "env": {
        "GOOGLE_API_KEY": "${{ secrets.GOOGLE_API_KEY }}"
      },
      "transportType": "stdio"
    }
  }
}

For other IDEs it should be mostly similar to the above.

Local Testing and Development

Using MCP Inspector, you can test the memory-plus server locally.

git clone https://github.com/Yuchen20/Memory-Plus.git
cd Memory-Plus
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector fastmcp run run .\\memory_plus\\mcp.py

Or If you prefer using this MCP in an actual Chat Session. There is a template chatbot in agent.py.

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/Yuchen20/Memory-Plus.git
cd Memory-Plus

# Install dependencies
pip install uv
uv pip install fast-agent-mcp
uv run fast-agent setup        

setup the fastagent.config.yaml and fastagent.secrets.yaml with your own API keys.

# Run the agent
uv run agent_memory.py

FAQ

1. Why is memory-plus not working?

• Memory-plus has a few dependencies that can be slow to download the first time. It typically takes around 1 minute to fetch everything needed.
• Once dependencies are installed, subsequent usage will be much faster.
• If you experience other issues, please feel free to open a new issue on the repository.

2. How do I use memory-plus in a real chat session?

• Simply add the MCP JSON file to your MCP setup.
• Once added, memory-plus will automatically activate when needed.
