### Description (declared)

# Smriti MCP

> A portable memory server for AI agents, built for the Model Context Protocol (MCP).

[![PyPI version](https://img.shields.io/pypi/v/smriti-mcp.svg)](https://pypi.org/project/smriti-mcp/)
[![Python 3.10+](https://img.shields.io/badge/python-3.10%2B-blue)](https://www.python.org/downloads/)
[![Tests](https://img.shields.io/badge/tests-passing-brightgreen)]()

Smriti stores durable memories as plain markdown files with YAML frontmatter. This keeps your data readable, git-friendly, and easy to inspect outside any single agent runtime.

## Features

- **Framework agnostic**: Works with any MCP-compatible agent (Claude, OpenAI, local models, etc.)
- **Durable & portable**: All memories stored as plain markdown files—no database required
- **Git-friendly**: Version control your memories alongside your code
- **Search & filter**: Full-text search, filtering by tags, categories, and status
- **Relationship tracking**: Use `[[wikilinks]]` to connect related memories
- **Memory index**: Auto-generate markdown indexes of your entire memory store
- **Archive & organize**: Hierarchical organization with categories and status tracking

### With uv

Install Smriti as a persistent command-line tool:

## Quick Start

### 1. Run the server locally

```bash
smriti-mcp server --memory-root ~/.smriti/memory

By default, Smriti uses `~/.smriti/memory`. You can override it with:

```bash
export SMRITI_MEMORY_ROOT="$HOME/.smriti/memory"
