Mem0 MCP Selfhosted Overview

The elvismdev/mem0-mcp-selfhosted MCP server provides persistent memory management through Qdrant vector search, optional Neo4j relationships, and Ollama embeddings. It exposes 11 MCP tools for storing, searching, updating, deleting, and inspecting memories and graph entities. Anthropic via Claude Code OAT tokens or a fully local Ollama model can handle memory fact extraction, while session hooks inject memories at startup and save summaries at shutdown. Reach for it when an agent needs self-hosted cross-session context rather than an external memory service.
