Cursor

Connect Cursor to Engrammic for persistent memory across sessions.

Prerequisites

• Cursor installed
• Engrammic server running locally or a cloud account

Installation

The installer detects Cursor automatically:

curl -fsSL https://get.engrammic.ai/install.sh | sh
engrammic install

This writes the MCP config to ~/.cursor/mcp.json and starts the local server if needed.

Manual Configuration

If you prefer manual setup, add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

Local Server

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "engrammic": {
      "url": "http://localhost:8000/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Cloud

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "engrammic": {
      "url": "https://beta.engrammic.ai/mcp/"
    }
  }
}

Verify

Restart Cursor, then ask your agent:

What MCP tools do you have?

You should see remember, learn, recall, trace, and other Engrammic tools listed.

Load the EAG Guide

Tools alone are passive. To make your agent proactive with memory, load the EAG guide:

Load the engrammic onboarding pattern

This teaches your agent when to store and recall automatically. See Load the EAG Guide for details.
