Fimemory Overview

The fimemory MCP server connects supported AI tools to a local folder of notes and project context. It uses ordinary files, encrypts new stores at rest by default, and exposes the store through MCP after setup writes the relevant host configuration and memory rules. Reach for it when several agents need shared context without sending data to a hosted memory service. It also supports plaintext stores, local diagnostics, guided onboarding, and user-managed Git-based movement between machines.
