ArkHive MCP server

by sammyboi81

Give your AI a memory it keeps between chats, with a tamper-evident record you can check.

ArkHive is a small helper you install on your own computer. It gives your AI a memory that lasts beyond one chat, and it keeps a record of what was written that can be checked later for changes. It is handy for people who want their AI to remember context across sessions without sending that memory to someone else's server.

What is an MCP server? The 30-second version

On its own, your AI can only chat. It forgets everything when the window closes. An MCP server is a small helper program that gives your AI a new skill or a connection to an app or service. This one connects your AI to a local memory store called ArkHive, so it can write things down, read them back later, and check that the record has not been quietly changed.

What this MCP server does

You ask your AI something, and if it needs to remember or look up past context, it uses this helper. The helper writes the note into a file on your computer, in a chain where each entry is linked to the one before it. Later, when you ask again, the helper reads those notes back so your AI can pick up where you left off. It can also run a check that compares the chain and tells you if anything was edited or removed. And it can look at a proposed action against rules you set, then record the verdict.

What you can do with it

  • Create a named identity for your AI with a short set of rules
  • Write a note into a tamper-evident local record
  • Read back earlier notes so the AI has context
  • Check the record for edits or broken links
  • Evaluate an action against your rules and save the result
  • Keep everything on your own machine by default

Try asking your AI

  • “Check the ArkHive and tell me what we worked on last time”
  • “Remember that we finished the budget draft today”
  • “Verify the chain and tell me if anything looks off”
  • “Govern this action: send the client the final invoice”

What it gives back to you

You get answers in the chat, plus a short report when you ask for a check. For example, verify tells you whether the chain is intact or shows how many links are broken. Recall gives back the earlier notes so your AI can use them in the current conversation. Remember and govern confirm what was written and where it went.

Before you start

What you need

  • Python installed on your computer
  • The ability to run a command in a terminal (a text window where you type commands)
  • An MCP client such as Claude Desktop or Codex

Good to know

The memory file sits on your computer, so anyone with access to that machine can read it, and a hash chain can show changes but cannot stop someone who controls the whole machine from replacing things.

Install it with your AI

Add ArkHive MCP server to your AI, no technical skills needed

You don't install anything by hand. You copy one prompt, paste it into an AI that can work on your computer, and it checks, installs and connects the server for you, asking you when it needs something.

Sign in to get the install prompt

Members get a ready-made prompt that lets the Claude desktop app check ArkHive MCP server, install it and connect it for them, step by step. You don't need any technical skills: you copy, paste and answer a few questions. Your connected AI can also find and install any of the 4,611 MCP servers here for you.

Who it's for

People who want their AI to remember work across sessions and keep that memory on their own machine, such as solo developers, small teams, and anyone handling sensitive notes.
