agentic-recall memory server

This is a helper for Claude Desktop and Claude Code that lets your AI remember things between chats. You keep your notes as ordinary Markdown files in one folder you choose, and the AI can look things up in that folder when you ask. It is handy if you keep project notes, decisions, or handover documents and want your AI to use them without pasting them in every time.

What this MCP server does

You point the helper at one folder of Markdown files, and it builds a search index of what is inside. When you ask your AI a question, the AI sends that question to this helper. The helper searches your notes in three ways at once: by exact words, by meaning, and by nearby phrases. It hands back the most relevant passages, and if nothing matches well it says so instead of guessing. If you ask it to, it can also write a new note into the folder, but only through a separate write action.

What you can do with it

• Search your notes by exact words, like file names or part numbers
• Search by meaning, so a question about restarting something finds a note that never uses that word
• Get a clear answer when your notes do not contain what you asked
• See which passages matched and how they were found
• Write a new memory into your folder when you ask the AI to save something
• Check whether a commit reference in a note is a real commit, if you point it at your repositories
• Keep your notes private, since everything stays on your machine

Try asking your AI

• “Search my memory folder for how we handled the email app restart”
• “What did I write about the pricing change last month”
• “Save a note that we decided to drop the old scraper”
• “Is there anything in my notes about wheel truing”

What it gives back to you

You get back a short list of matching notes with the relevant passage shown, plus a note about how each one was found. If nothing matched well, you get an empty result and a plain message saying no strong match was found, with the closest weak candidates listed separately. When you ask it to save something, it tells you the file it wrote. Every response also shows which version of the helper answered.
