Main
Treat memory as a tool you must invoke: README notes agents won’t use memory automatically unless you prompt or configure storage triggers.
Start with the default SQLite backend, then add extras only when you need a different backend (README shows optional pipx extras installs).
Use a simple memory protocol in your project docs (CLAUDE.md/AGENTS.md) to standardize when to recall and store memories.
Source-backed notes
- README describes MemoryGraph as a graph-based MCP memory server for AI coding agents with persistent storage across sessions.
- README quick start shows
pipx install memorygraphMCPand adding it to Claude Code viaclaude mcp add ... memorygraph -- memorygraph. - README documents Core vs Extended tool profiles (Core: 9 tools; Extended: 12 tools) and an
--profile extendedflag.
FAQ
- Will my agent store memories automatically?: Not by default — README says you must prompt or configure memory triggers.
- Can it work with other MCP clients?: Yes — README lists multiple MCP clients and provides quickstart docs for each.
- How do I start simple?: Use the default SQLite backend and Core profile; only enable Extended when you need deeper stats/queries.
