MemoryPlugin can be used across dozens of AI tools (list growing every day) through the use of our MCP Server.

The Desktop app for Claude is one of the most popular MCP clients (as they are the creators of the MCP protocol), but there are many others that support MCP too

What is MCP?

Model Context Protocol is a new system developed by Anthropic to standardise how AI systems communicate with and use external data sources and tools.

Largely, it’s made up of two elements. MCP Clients and MCP Servers.

Think of MCP Clients as the app you’re using to chat with your AI, and the MCP servers are the tools that are made available to that app.

In this context, MemoryPlugin is available as an MCP Server.

How to use the MemoryPlugin MCP server?

MCP is currently not very end-user friendly and is more tailored to developers.

The MemoryPlugin MCP server is based on NodeJS. You will need to ensure you have NodeJS installed to be able to use the MemoryPlugin MCP.

You can follow this guide from the MCP documentation to understand how to set up the MCP server.
