Target Reference Server

Emulo Overview

The ohad6k/emulo MCP server loads a personal profile mined from local Claude Code, Codex, Copilot CLI, OpenCode, and Google Antigravity session logs. Its MCP interface exposes one tool, `loademuloprofile`, which makes the generated profile available to an agent before work begins. Emulo separates profile content into layers such as work, design, writing, and video, and provides adapters for several agent environments. Reach for it when you want an agent to use patterns from your actual sessions rather than relying only on manually written instructions.
