37/100

claude-memory

Provides persistent, searchable memory for Claude Code using local SQLite, semantic embeddings, and full-text search, enabling Claude to recall and retrieve context across sessions and projects without external services.

Caution. Specific findings reduced this grade. They are listed on the page. Grades reflect the full trust pyramid: code, verification depth, and reputation. New projects cap at C until adoption is earned.

These names and descriptions are the publisher's own, read from the source code. We print them as written. Our assessment is the findings above, not this list.

remember

Store knowledge in persistent memory. Checks for duplicates via semantic similarity before storing. Returns a duplicate warning if a very similar memory already exists (>85% similarity). Include source_project/source_file for context tracking.

recall

Search persistent memory using semantic similarity, full-text search, or filters. Semantic search finds conceptually related memories even without keyword matches. Results are ranked by a hybrid score combining semantic similarity, text relevance, importance, and recency. Automatically tracks access

update_memory

Update an existing memory. Re-embeds automatically if content changes.

forget

Delete a memory by ID. Cascades to embeddings and relationships.

list_categories

List all memory categories with entry counts and embedding status.

relate

Create a relationship between two memories. Types: 'related', 'supersedes', 'caused_by', 'contradicts', 'supports', 'depends_on'.

find_related

Find memories related to a given memory — both explicit relations and semantically similar memories.

consolidate

Find groups of similar/duplicate memories that could be merged. Returns clusters of semantically similar memories grouped by topic. Use the 'merge' tool to combine selected groups into single entries.

merge

Merge multiple memories into one consolidated entry. Preserves relationships and combines tags. Deletes the originals.

visualize

Open the memory visualization web UI in the browser. Shows a force-directed knowledge graph, stats, and searchable memory list.

// known CVEs in dependencies3 high

Disclosed vulnerabilities in this server's declared npm dependencies (via OSV). Whether each is reachable depends on the installed versions.

Tool annotations

No tools have read-only/destructive annotations

Add readOnlyHint or destructiveHint annotations to every tool so hosts can warn users before invoking.

All four hints declared on every tool

10/10 tools missing one or more hints — remember (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); recall (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); update_memory (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint), +7 more. OpenAI's directory rejects tools where any of the four hints are missing or non-boolean.

For every tool, set all four hints (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint) to explicit true/false values that match the handler’s actual behaviour.

Descriptions match behaviour

1 tool describes read intent but its handler mutates — visualize (line 804: exec(`open http://localhost:${port}`))

Rename the tool, rewrite the description, or move the side-effect into a separate clearly-named tool.

Tool inputs are validated

7/10 tool handlers declare input schemas (70%)

Declare an inputSchema with zod/joi/yup on every tool definition.

Tests exist

No test files found

Add tests that exercise each declared tool.

Production dependencies are patched

0 critical, 3 high severity in production deps — @modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.12.1 (high), @modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.12.1 (high)

Run npm audit fix, or upgrade the affected packages to a non-vulnerable version.

Tool description accuracy

visualize: description implies read-only but handler writes/deletes/executes

Update tool descriptions to accurately reflect all capabilities — especially write, delete, or execute operations.

// full audit trail
The findings above are the summary. The full trail, every check we ran, each deduction, the network hosts observed and the dependency advisories, goes to verified publishers, along with an alert whenever a new one lands. Verified publishers can also review each finding and dispute it in one click. Publisher corrections have sharpened several of our checks this month, because the maintainer knows the codebase better than any scanner.
// improvement guidance — verified publishers only
We have 7 concrete improvements we can share with the publisher of this MCP. Each comes with specific guidance to raise the trust score.
