Basic Memory is an MCP server providing local-first knowledge management where your knowledge lives as Markdown files with bi-directional sync to LLMs. It runs over stdio, exposes tools organized around content, projects, and schema, and is also offered as a hosted cloud version with the same Markdown-based engine.
Reach for it when you want an LLM that reads and writes a persistent, human-readable Markdown knowledge base instead of opaque storage.
Use it to
- Persist project notes and context across LLM sessions
- Build a personal knowledge graph in Markdown
- Share a team knowledge base via the cloud version
- Use the Claude Code plugin for session briefings and checkpoints
For Developers and knowledge workers using MCP-compatible AI clients
