Open Reflex MCP Server

Website · Docs · Walkthrough · PyPI · Issues · Buy me a coffee OpenReflex gives AI coding agents muscle memory. It plugs into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and OpenCode through lifecycle hooks and MCP, quietly records how each task actually went, and hands the next similar task what worked before: the approach, the files that mattered, and the fix for the error you hit last time.

People who work with agent memory, codex and coding agents and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Python.

01 · Install Open Reflex

Claude Code

claude mcp add vishnu-77-openreflex -- uvx openreflex

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "vishnu-77-openreflex": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "openreflex"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.

Using another client? Same JSON, different key

02 · Evidence

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

repo age created 2026-09-13 - young repo, little track record yet

license MIT - declared in the repository

pypi package openreflex - check the name against the project README before installing (PyPI has no namespace ownership)

registry namespace io.github.vishnu-77 is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner

06 · Open Reflex FAQ

What is Open Reflex?

Website · Docs · Walkthrough · PyPI · Issues · Buy me a coffee OpenReflex gives AI coding agents muscle memory. It plugs into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and OpenCode through lifecycle hooks and MCP, quietly records how each task actually went, and hands the next similar task what worked before: the approach, the files that mattered, and the fix for the error you hit last time.

Is Open Reflex still maintained?

Yes - as of 2026-09-18, its last commit was 2026-09-17 and it shipped 6 releases in the last 90 days. We re-verify nightly.

How do I install Open Reflex?

Run `uvx openreflex`. You can also paste the ready-made client config above.

Does Open Reflex run locally?

Yes - it's a stdio server: it runs on your machine (via uvx) with your user's permissions. Your data stays local unless the server itself calls external APIs.
