Memharness MCP Server
A bi-temporal, provenance-carrying memory primitive for AI agents. One SQLite file. No LLM or network calls in the storage layer. Exposed to any agent via MCP. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.
People who work with artificial intelligence, memory and bi temporal and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in TypeScript.

01 · Install Memharness
before you install - you'll need
The README does not document required environment variables for a basic install.
Claude Code
claude mcp add las7-memharness -- npx -y @memharness/mcp Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config
{
"mcpServers": {
"las7-memharness": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@memharness/mcp"
]
}
}
} Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.
Using another client? Same JSON, different key

Security posture
What to check before giving this server access to your agent - from the registry, GitHub, and our own probes. We don't score safety; we show what's verifiable.
runs as local process (stdio) - runs on your machine with your user's permissions
license Apache-2.0 - declared in the repository
npm package @memharness/mcp - the @memharness scope differs from the repo owner (las7); confirm it's the project's official package
registry namespace io.github.las7 is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner
