🏛️ Memory System for AI Coding Tools - Never explain your codebase again. MCP server with perfect project isolation, 95.8% context accuracy, and the Four Pillars Framework.
概览
No MCP overhead. No vendor lock-in. Just memory that works. Your existing memories work instantly. Same ~/.kratos/ storage, same SQLite format. After building 30+ production apps with AI, we discovered a critical problem: . You explain your architecture, your patterns, your decisions—and tomorrow, you explain it all again. Kratos MCP solves this with an that gives AI perfect recall of your project—with minimal context overhead. Each project gets its own SQLite database. No cross-contamination. Ever. Auto-detects projects via git, package.json, or directory structure. Just install and code. Just 12 essential tools. 64% smaller context footprint than competitors. Works with Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, Continue—any MCP-compatible tool.

Why Kratos?
After building 30+ production apps with AI, we discovered a critical problem: AI tools forget everything between sessions. You explain your architecture, your patterns, your decisions—and tomorrow, you explain it all again.
Kratos MCP solves this with an ultra-lean memory system that gives AI perfect recall of your project—with minimal context overhead.
Features
Installation
# Install globally
npm install -g kratos-mcp
# Or run directly with npx (no installation required)
npx kratos-mcp
# Or install as a dependency
npm install kratos-mcp
Quick Start
1. Configure Your AI Tool
2. Start Using Kratos
// Your AI now remembers:
// - Your authentication patterns
// - Your API structure
// - Your component architecture
// - Your coding standards
// - Every decision you've made

How It Works
AI Tool ──► Kratos MCP ──► Project Detection ──► SQLite + FTS5 ──► Perfect Context
- SQLite + FTS5: Lightning-fast full-text search
- Smart Scoring: Path matching + recency + importance
- Auto-detection: Git, package.json, or directory-based
- Secure: All data stays local, no external calls
- Lean: Only 4 core components, minimal memory footprint
Performance
| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| Context Overhead | 64% smaller than v3 |
| Memory Retrieval | < 10ms |
| Project Switch | < 100ms |
| Storage Overhead | ~2MB per project |
Data Storage
~/.kratos/
├── projects/
│ ├── project-id-1/
│ │ └── memories.db # SQLite database with FTS5
│ └── project-id-2/
│ └── memories.db
└── global/
└── global.db # Shared knowledge (optional)
Use change_storage_path to move data to custom locations like /opt/kratos or .kratos for per-project storage.
Example Usage
// Save a memory
await memory_save({
summary: "JWT auth implementation",
text: "We use httpOnly cookies with refresh tokens...",
tags: ["auth", "security"],
paths: ["src/middleware/auth.ts"],
importance: 5
});
// Search memories
await memory_search({
q: "authentication",
k: 5,
debug: true
});
// Ask natural language questions
await memory_ask({
question: "How does our auth system work?",
limit: 10
});
