communitystdioneeds caution

Self-hosted mem0 MCP server for Claude Code. Run a complete memory server against self-hosted Qdrant + Neo4j + Ollama while using Claude as the main LLM.

01Configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mem0-mcp-selfhosted": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "--from",
        "git+https://github.com/elvismdev/mem0-mcp-selfhosted.git",
        "mem0-mcp-selfhosted"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Add this to ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json. Generated from the captured install method (uvx); the mcpServers shape is shared across Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, and VS Code.

02Steps

Make sure Windsurf is installed and up to date.
Open ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json and add the block above (merge into any existing mcpServers).
Provide any required API keys/credentials as environment variables.
Restart Windsurf and confirm mem0-mcp-selfhosted’s tools appear.
