MCP Memory Server vs Memory Os Cli

memory_write

Store a long-term memory that persists across sessions AND across every AI tool the user has connected to Mnemoverse (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code) — write once, recall everywhere. Call this PROACTIVELY the moment the user states a preference, makes a decision, or you learn a durable fact (people, roles, project setup, a lesson). Don't wait to be asked. Never store passwords, API keys, payment data, MFA codes, government IDs, or health records; skip transient chatter that only matters this turn. Behavior: an importance gate may filter low-value writes, so the result tells you whether the memory was stored or filtered. Write `content` as a self-contained statement that still makes sense when recalled out of context.

memory_read

Search your long-term memory before answering anything that may have come up before — user preferences, past decisions, project setup, people, or earlier context. This memory is shared: it persists across sessions and across every AI tool the user has connected (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code). ALWAYS check here first when you're unsure whether you already know something; no need to call it for general world knowledge you already hold. Returns matches ranked by relevance (or newest-first with order_by: 'recency'); each result carries an id you can pass to memory_feedback. A wrong or stale memory is corrected by writing a fresh one with memory_write, not by deleting it.

memory_list_recent

List the NEWEST memories first — no search query needed. Semantic search answers 'what do I know about X'; this answers 'what happened lately': resuming work after a break, catching up on a shared room ('any new messages?'), or reviewing what was saved recently. Pass `since` (your last-seen time) to get only what's new, and page through older entries with the returned cursor. Complete by construction WITHIN ONE SCOPE — nothing is skipped there, unlike a semantic search. A page is also bounded by SIZE, so a page of long entries comes back shorter than `limit` and hands you a cursor for the rest — nothing is dropped, and following the cursor is how you get it. To catch up on a shared room you MUST pass its address as `domain`: rooms are separate stores and an unscoped call never covers them.
