SuperMemory
MCP-first agent learning: capture failures, validate lessons, retrieve context, improve.
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).

Contents
SuperMemory
MCP-first agent learning layer for Claude, Cursor, and custom agent workflows.
SuperMemory captures distilled lessons from failures and corrections — not full conversation transcripts — validates them before storage, and improves agents over time through a closed-loop cycle.
Quick start
pip install supermemory-agent
supermemory-agent --storage .supermemory --transport stdio
Or with uv:
uvx supermemory-agent --storage .supermemory --transport stdio
Latest release: v0.2.4 — wheel + sdist attached on every GitHub Release.
What you get
| Component | Description |
|---|---|
| MCP server | 29 tools + 4 resources over stdio (or streamable HTTP) |
| Agent skill | skills/supermemory-agent-learning/SKILL.md — bundled in the PyPI package |
| Python SDK | In-process integration via uall_python |
| REST API | FastAPI server for remote / polyglot clients |
| Storage | Local .supermemory/ files by default; SQLite and PostgreSQL optional |
Everything lives in one repo: MCP server, skills, SDK, REST API, tests, and release packages.
Install
PyPI (recommended)
pip install supermemory-agent
After install, bundled skills are at site-packages/skills/supermemory-agent-learning/. Copy to your editor skills folder if needed.
GitHub Release (offline / pinned version)
Each release ships installable assets:
pip install https://github.com/YashvantHange/SuperMemory/releases/download/v0.2.4/supermemory_agent-0.2.4-py3-none-any.whl
Browse all versions: github.com/YashvantHange/SuperMemory/releases
From source (developers)
git clone https://github.com/YashvantHange/SuperMemory.git
cd SuperMemory
pip install -e ".[dev]"
python -m pytest tests/ -v
Configure MCP
Cursor
Copy examples/cursor.mcp.json to .cursor/mcp.json in your project:
{
"mcpServers": {
"supermemory": {
"command": "supermemory-agent",
"args": ["--storage", ".supermemory", "--transport", "stdio"]
}
}
}
Claude Desktop
Merge examples/claude_desktop_config.json into:
%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
Restart Claude Desktop after saving.
Run manually
Do not run supermemory-agent alone in a terminal — stdio mode expects JSON-RPC from an MCP client. Pressing Enter in the shell causes a JSON parse error.
# For local HTTP testing only:
supermemory-agent --transport streamable-http
When configured in Cursor or Claude Desktop, the client launches the server automatically over stdio.

Learning loop
retrieve → record_failure → reflect(event_ids) → validate → process_promotions
→ retrieve again → report_outcome
Core rule: capture workflow outcomes and distilled lessons only — never full transcripts. Default retrieval budget: max_tokens=800.
MCP tools (29)
Core (13): retrieve, record_event, record_failure, record_correction, reflect, validate, process_promotions, report_outcome, get_policies, add_policy, add_skill, search_skills, get_skill
Extended UALL (16): learn.run.start, learn.run.event, learn.run.end, learn.store, learn.retrieve, learn.reflect, learn.validate, learn.evaluate, learn.feedback, learn.improvements, learn.analytics, learn.policies, learn.experiment, learn.rollback, learn.skills, learn.telemetry
All tools include MCP safety annotations (readOnlyHint / destructiveHint).
MCP resources (4)
supermemory://policies/activesupermemory://lessons/{lesson_id}supermemory://memory/{lesson_id}/provenancesupermemory://skills/{skill_id}
Python SDK
from uall_python import UALLClient
client = UALLClient(storage="file")
with client.run(workflow_id="pdf-pipeline", step="planner", namespace="team:eng") as run:
lessons = run.retrieve(step="planner", max_tokens=800)
run.record_failure(snippet="chose OCR for searchable PDF", tags=["routing"])
run.report_lesson_outcome(lesson_id="lesson_001", used=True, accepted=True, improved=True)
REST API
python -m uall_server
Server: http://localhost:8000 — see api/openapi.yaml.
Storage
| Tier | Backend | Config |
|---|---|---|
| Default | .supermemory/ JSON files | SUPERMEMORY_STORAGE_PATH or UALL_DATA_DIR |
| Optional | SQLite | UALL_STORAGE_BACKEND=sqlite |
| Enterprise | PostgreSQL | UALL_STORAGE_BACKEND=postgres |

Frequently asked questions
What is SuperMemory?
MCP-first agent learning: capture failures, validate lessons, retrieve context, improve.
How do I install SuperMemory?
It runs on your machine. In Claude Code: claude mcp add supermemory -e 'SUPERMEMORY_STORAGE_PATH=.supermemory' -e 'UALL_DATA_DIR=.supermemory' -- supermemory-agent supermemory-agent==0.2.5. For other clients, paste the JSON configuration from this page into their MCP settings.
Does SuperMemory need an API key?
Its registry entry lists no required key or secret. Some features may still need an account with the service it connects to.
Is SuperMemory open source?
Yes. Its code is on GitHub under the MIT license.
Who maintains SuperMemory?
It is published by YashvantHange. AI.tn lists it but does not maintain or endorse it.
From the official MCP Registry. Listing is not an endorsement: review a server's code and permissions before giving it access to your data.
