Samuraizer
Local MCP server for meeting transcripts, summaries, action items & decisions — no cloud.
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).
@samuraizer/mcp-serverclaude mcp add samuraizer -e 'SAMURAIZER_MEETINGS_DIR=<SAMURAIZER_MEETINGS_DIR>' -- npx -y @samuraizer/mcp-server@0.1.7

Samuraizer
Turn meeting recordings into transcripts, summaries, action items, and decisions — entirely on your machine. No cloud, no subscriptions, no data leaving your network.
Reference implementation. Samuraizer is the reference implementation of the memnex specification — an open standard for portable meeting outputs (transcripts, summaries, action items, decisions). All outputs conform to memnex v0.2, including a full provenance chain.
Why Samuraizer
- Fully local. Your recordings never leave your machine.
- CLI-first. Scriptable, automatable, integrates with cron, Git hooks, Obsidian workflows.
- Resumable. Crashed mid-pipeline? Re-run picks up where it left off.
- Fast. LLM stages (summary, action items, decisions) run in parallel, cutting total time by ~2.3×.
- Model-agnostic. Works with any Ollama-compatible LLM — pick what fits your hardware.
- Free. No subscriptions, no per-minute pricing.
Portable output with memnex
Samuraizer writes meeting results in the portable memnex v0.2 format. This lets another meeting app, local AI agent, or MCP server consume the same transcript, summary, action items, decisions, and provenance without learning a Samuraizer-specific JSON shape.
To verify a memnex document in under a minute, follow the memnex quickstart. It installs the validator and checks a real v0.2 example end to end.
📦 Packages
This is a monorepo. Samuraizer is published as two npm packages, each with its own README and changelog:
| Package | What it does | Docs |
|---|---|---|
@samuraizer/cli | The meeting-processing CLI — install, configure, and run the local pipeline. Start here. | packages/cli/README.md |
@samuraizer/mcp-server | Companion Model Context Protocol server. Lets AI agents (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, MCP Inspector) query your processed meetings and trigger the pipeline. | packages/mcp-server/README.md |
🏛 Project status
- memnex specification: v0.2 — see the memnex repo for the schema, conformance suite, and governance documents.
- Schemastore registered. memnex is in the universal JSON Schema catalog (PR #5676).
*.memnex.jsonandmeeting-output.jsonfiles get IDE autocomplete and validation by default in VS Code, JetBrains IDEs, Neovim, Sublime, and other editors with language-server support. - Roadmap: local diarization, cryptographic signing UX, accessibility (WebVTT subtitles), and the path to memnex v1.0 are funded milestones.
