### Description (declared)

# Project Memory MCP

An MCP server and Claude Code plugin for persistent project memory. Allows AI agents to maintain knowledge about projects between conversations via `MEMORY.md` files.

## Features

- **Store & retrieve** project knowledge in Markdown format
- **Incremental updates** via SEARCH/REPLACE patches
- **Auto-read hook** — automatically loads project memory on first prompt (Claude Code plugin)
- **Dream consolidation** — automatic project memory cleanup and deduplication (Claude Code plugin)

## Installation

### Claude Code Plugin (recommended)

Installs the MCP server, auto-read hook, and dream consolidation:

```bash
/plugin marketplace add /path/to/project-mem-mcp
/plugin install project-mem@cc-plugin-project-mem
```

### Standalone MCP Server

For Codex, Claude Desktop, Cursor, or other MCP clients:

```bash
uvx project-mem-mcp
```

#### MCP Client Configuration

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "project-mem-mcp": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "project-mem-mcp",
        "--allowed-dir", "/path/to/your/projects"
      ]
    }
  }
}
```

The `--allowed-dir` argument restricts which directories the server can access. Can be used multiple times. Defaults to the current working directory if omitted.

### Install from Source

```bash
git clone https://github.com/pynesys/project-mem-mcp.git
cd project-mem-mcp
python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -e .
```

## Tools

### get_project_memory

Retrieves `MEMORY.md` content. With no extra args, returns the whole file. The
server raises `ValueError` if the file would exceed ~20K estimated tokens
(below most clients' tool-result caps); use `head_only` or `offset/limit` to
pull what you need.

```
get_project_memory(
    project_path: str,
    offset: int = 0,           # 1-indexed start line; 0 = from start
    limit: int | None = None,  # max lines to return
    head_only: bool = False,   # return only size + heading TOC
) -> str
```

Typical large-file pattern: call once…
