MemoV Now Supports MCP: Connect to Any AI Coding Agent

MemoV adds native Model Context Protocol support, enabling seamless integration with Claude Code, Codex, VS Code, and Cursor.

MemoV Now Supports MCP: Connect to Any AI Coding Agent

MemoV now includes native support for the Model Context Protocol (MCP), making it easy to capture AI coding sessions from any compatible agent or editor.

What is MCP?

The Model Context Protocol is an open standard that allows AI tools to communicate with external services. By implementing MCP, MemoV can automatically track sessions from:
  • Claude Code — Anthropic's official CLI for Claude
  • Codex — OpenAI's code completion tool
  • VS Code — With the MCP extension
  • Cursor — The AI-first code editor

How It Works

When you add MemoV as an MCP server, it runs alongside your AI agent and captures:
  1. Prompts — Every question or instruction you give the AI
  2. Responses — The AI's complete answers and explanations
  3. Code Diffs — Exactly what changed in your files
All of this is stored in a shadow
code
.mem
directory, completely separate from your main
code
.git
history.

Quick Setup

For Claude Code

bash
claude mcp add mem-mcp --scope project -- uvx --from git+https://github.com/memovai/memov.git mem-mcp-launcher stdio $(pwd)

For Codex

bash
codex mcp add mem-mcp -- uvx --from git+https://github.com/memovai/memov.git mem-mcp-launcher stdio $(pwd)

For VS Code

Create
code
.vscode/mcp.json
:
json
{ "servers": { "mem-mcp": { "type": "stdio", "command": "uvx", "args": [ "--from", "git+https://github.com/memovai/memov.git", "mem-mcp-launcher", "stdio", "${workspaceFolder}" ] } } }

For Cursor

Go to Cursor Settings > MCP and add the same configuration.

Benefits

  • Zero configuration — Works out of the box with default settings
  • Automatic tracking — No manual commands needed during sessions
  • Privacy-first — Everything stays on your local machine
  • Git-compatible — Uses Git's storage format for reliability
