Agenticmemory vs Memory Os Cli

A side-by-side look at the Agenticmemory and Memory Os Cli MCP servers: transport, auth, tools, quality signals, and the config to install either one in Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or VS Code.

Verdict: choose Agenticmemory for knowledge & memory work over a hosted endpoint; choose Memory Os Cli for knowledge & memory as a local process. You can also run both side by side in one mcpServers block.

Agenticmemory tools

No tool names declared yet. Check the project README from the listing page.

Memory Os Cli tools 20

  • get_mcp_identityCheck XMemo connection status and the connected account/agent.
  • rememberSave a memory so it can be recalled in future conversations.
  • recallRecall the most relevant saved memories before answering.
  • recall_contextRead a multi-memory context pack. Requires memory:read and does not change content. Use when many memories need explicit budgets; use recall for lightweight answer or get_project_context for project snapshot. max_items/max_tokens bound rendered output.
  • memory_statsShow aggregate statistics for XMemo memories.
  • update_memoryUpdate the content or metadata of an existing memory.
  • explain_memoryExplain why a memory exists or matched a query.
  • restore_memoryRestore a previously deleted memory.
  • add_expenseCreate one XMemo Ledger transaction and backing memory. Requires memory:write; it records a new transaction or reuses a semantic duplicate, and never deletes Ledger records. Use it for a purchase, income, refund, or transfer; use list_ledger_transactions or get_monthly_ledger_summary for reads. amount must be positive; transaction_type defaults to expense; blank transaction_date uses today's UTC date.
  • list_ledger_transactionsShow XMemo Ledger records.
  • get_monthly_ledger_summarySummarize Ledger totals by month and currency.
  • forgetPermanently delete a memory by target.

Frequently asked questions

Agenticmemory is categorized under Knowledge & Memory and uses a remote HTTP/SSE transport. Memory Os Cli belongs to Knowledge & Memory and uses a local stdio subprocess. Pick Agenticmemory for knowledge & memory work and Memory Os Cli for knowledge & memory.

Copy the mcpServers block from the config section on this page into your client's config (for example claude_desktop_config.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json), then fully restart the client.

Agenticmemory has no declared pricing — check the project's own site. Memory Os Cli is listed as free. Auth: other. If a server needs environment variables such as API keys, define them under the env key in your client's MCP config.

Yes. MCP clients support multiple servers: add agenticmemory and yonro-memory-os-cli as separate keys in the same mcpServers object, and your assistant will call tools from either one.
