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.
A private, local research "second brain" for Claude: project-aware memory, cited answers from your own library (won't invent what it can't find), linked notes/meetings/ideas via a domain-specific knowledge layer, daily briefs (news + new papers in your field), a live meeting assistant, cross-pollination across your work, and 34 routed agents. A governed layer between you and the AI, with guardrails like data protection. A Research Cortex.
Persistent, compounding memory for AI agents across sessions. Uses the Intelligent Distance Protocol to surface the most contextually relevant past memories. Five tools: sessionstart, remember, recall, check, sessionend. npx agent-recall-mcp
