N Memory MCP Server
Your coding agent forgets you between sessions, so you spend every morning re-explaining decisions it was there for. Bolt a memory onto it and you usually trade that for something worse: asked a question it has nothing solid for, the memory hands back something plausible anyway, and your agent goes and edits your code with it. Its README documents 4 tools, including memory_ingest, memory_retrieve, memory_digest.
People who work with memory, recall and sqlite and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Rust.

03 · What N Memory can do
Prose above is summarized from the project's README and registry record - no invented capabilities.
What you can build
An agent gets 4 documented tools, including memory_ingest, memory_retrieve, memory_digest, memory_forget.
The 4 tools it gives your agent
Extracted from the project's README - what nMEMORY lets an agent do.
- memory_ingest
- - capture with a birth certificate: no source + anchor, no storage.
- memory_retrieve
- - recall as evidence: grounded, missing_evidence, or an honest abstain.
- memory_digest
- - session-start projection: what you know, what's ready, what's blocked.
- memory_forget
- - tombstones with audit, never silent deletion.
