io.github.parallelromb/smara
Persistent cross-platform memory for AI agents with Ebbinghaus decay scoring.
Install
Add this to your client's MCP configuration (Claude Desktop: claude_desktop_config.json; Cursor: .cursor/mcp.json; VS Code and others use the same "mcpServers" shape).
@smara/mcp-serverclaude mcp add smara -e 'SMARA_API_KEY=<your smara_api_key>' -- npx -y @smara/mcp-server@2.0.2

@smara/mcp-server
MCP server for the Smara Memory API — give any AI app persistent memory with Temporal Memory Scoring™.
Quick Start
Add to your Claude Desktop config (~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json):
{
"mcpServers": {
"smara": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@smara/mcp-server"],
"env": {
"SMARA_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"
}
}
}
}

get_usage | Check plan limits and memory count |
How It Works
Smara uses Temporal Memory Scoring™ — a proprietary ranking system that makes AI memory work like human recall. Memories naturally fade over time, modulated by importance and access patterns. Recent, critical memories surface first. Stale, trivial ones fade. Contradictions are auto-detected and resolved.
