In Memoria Overview

The pi22by7/In-Memoria MCP server gives coding assistants persistent, queryable knowledge about a project’s code, architecture, patterns, and decisions. It uses a TypeScript MCP layer with Rust-based parsing and analysis, storing structured data in SQLite and vector data in local SurrealDB. Agents can analyze and search files, learn codebase intelligence, retrieve project blueprints, predict implementation approaches, and record insights. Reach for it when repeated coding sessions need consistent project context without re-explaining conventions.

Primary Use Cases for In Memoria:
  • Analyze a project’s architecture and entry points
  • Search code by meaning, text, or pattern
  • Route feature requests to relevant files
  • Retrieve learned coding conventions
