Claude Code
Add persistent memory to Anthropic's CLI agent
Claude Code is Anthropic's official CLI for agentic coding. Engrammic gives it memory that persists across sessions.
Prerequisites
- Claude Code installed and authenticated
- Engrammic server running locally or cloud account
Installation
The fastest path:
curl -fsSL https://get.engrammic.ai/install.sh | sh
engrammic installThe installer detects Claude Code automatically and writes the MCP config to ~/.claude/settings.json.
Manual Configuration
If you prefer manual setup, add the MCP server to ~/.claude/settings.json:
Local server
{
"mcpServers": {
"engrammic": {
"type": "http",
"url": "http://localhost:8000/mcp"
}
}
}Cloud (Engrammic hosted)
{
"mcpServers": {
"engrammic": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://beta.engrammic.ai/mcp/"
}
}
}Cloud requires authentication. Run engrammic-mcp login to configure credentials.
Verify
Start a new Claude Code session and ask:
What MCP tools do you have?You should see Engrammic tools like remember, learn, recall, trace, and link.
Load the EAG Guide
The tools alone are passive. To make Claude Code proactive with memory, load the EAG guide:
Load the engrammic onboarding patternThis teaches the agent when to recall and store automatically.
See EAG Guide for details.
