Summary
Connects Claude (and other MCP clients) to the Smara Memory API, which ranks stored facts using a decay algorithm modeled on the Ebbinghaus forgetting curve. You get five tools: store_memory with importance weighting, search_memories with temporal scoring that surfaces recent and critical facts first, get_user_context for dropping formatted memory into system prompts, plus delete and usage checking. Requires a Smara API key. Reach for this when you want conversational context that persists across sessions and naturally deprioritizes stale information without manual pruning. Free tier includes 10,000 memories.
Keeps your Mac awake while Claude Code, Codex or Cursor works. Lets it sleep when they are done.

MCP server for the Smara Memory API — give any AI app persistent memory with Temporal Memory Scoring™.
Quick Start
Add to your Claude Desktop config (~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json):
{
"mcpServers": {
"smara": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@smara/mcp-server"],
"env": {
"SMARA_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"
}
}
}
}

Tools
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
store_memory | Store a fact about a user with importance scoring |
search_memories | Semantic search with Temporal Memory Scoring™ |
get_user_context | Pre-formatted context string for LLM system prompts |
delete_memory | Delete a specific memory |
get_usage | Check plan limits and memory count |
How It Works
Smara uses Temporal Memory Scoring™ — a proprietary ranking system that makes AI memory work like human recall. Memories naturally fade over time, modulated by importance and access patterns. Recent, critical memories surface first. Stale, trivial ones fade. Contradictions are auto-detected and resolved.
