xomidar/memex
Give your Claude Code the ability to actually remember you. Semantic memory, zero server deps.
Platform-specific configuration:
{
"mcpServers": {
"memex": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"memex"
]
}
}
}Add the config above to .claude/settings.json under the mcpServers key.
Semantic memory for AI agents. An MCP server that gives your AI assistant a persistent, searchable knowledge base powered by vector embeddings.
Built for Claude Code. Works with any MCP-compatible client.
In 1945, Vannevar Bush — MIT engineer and director of the US Office of Scientific Research and Development — published "As We May Think" in The Atlantic. He described a hypothetical device called the memex (memory + index):
> *"A memex is a device in which an individual stores all his books, records, and communications, and which is mechanized so that it may be consulted with exceeding speed and flexibility."*
The memex was never built. The technology didn't exist. But the concept — a personal device that extends human memory through associative retrieval — became the intellectual foundation for hypertext (Ted Nelson cited it), the World Wide Web (Tim Berners-Lee cited it), and personal computing.
This project brings Bush's vision to AI agents. Instead of losing context between sessions or guessing about user preferences, your AI assistant can store and retrieve knowledge semantically — by meaning, not keywords.
Memex runs as a local MCP server that exposes four tools:
| Tool | Purpose | |------|---------| | ask | Semantic search — find relevant context by meaning | | memorize | Store new knowledge with auto-generated embeddings | | forget | Remove an entry by semantic match | | reflect | Audit what's stored about any topic |
Under the hood:
