Side-by-side comparison of two Model Context Protocol servers — install paths, tools, quality signals, and directory engagement so you can pick the right one for Claude, Cursor, and other MCP clients.
Local-first persistent memory for AI agents. SQLite + local embeddings (all-MiniLM-L6-v2), hybrid semantic + FTS5 recall, secret detection, and contradiction handling. 6 MCP tools (remember, recall, forget, feedback, context, status) over stdio. Zero cloud, no API keys, fully offline. Works with Claude Desktop/Code, Cursor, and Windsurf. npm install -g @hbarefoot/engram
