Claude.md is for Context. MarsNMe is for Continuity.

MarsNMe is an open-source, agent-agnostic memory backend that gives your AI continuity across sessions — not just context injection, but a growing relationship. Here's how we built it.

The Problem

Every time you start a new conversation with an AI assistant, it forgets everything. Your preferences, your projects, your context — gone.

Most memory solutions either:

Lock you into one AI provider
Store memories as flat key-value pairs (no semantic search)
Require complex infrastructure to self-host

We wanted something different.

The Architecture

MarsNMe is a Streamable HTTP MCP server that any MCP-compatible client can connect to. One npx command, one .env file, and your AI has memory.

MCP_PROFILE=my-agent npx @marsnme/mcp-gateway

Stack

Layer	Tech
Protocol	MCP (Streamable HTTP)
Storage	Supabase (PostgreSQL + pgvector)
Embeddings	Jina AI (jina-embeddings-v3)
Runtime	Node.js 20+, TypeScript
Auth	Optional OAuth / Bearer token

Two-tier Memory Model

Short-term: <profile>.memories — daily context, expires in 30 days
Long-term: <profile>.marsvault_chunks — distilled insights, semantic recall

Short-term memory captures everything. Long-term memory is promoted explicitly by the agent (or via our Dream Runner).

Multi-Profile Isolation

One gateway, multiple agents. Each MCP_PROFILE gets its own Supabase schema:

MCP_PROFILE=coco npx @marsnme/mcp-gateway   # port 18790
MCP_PROFILE=toto npx @marsnme/mcp-gateway   # port 18791

No cross-contamination. No shared tables.

The 13 MCP Tools

Tool	What it does
`session_boot`	Pre-load context at session start
`insert_memory`	Store short-term memory
`recall`	Semantic recall from long-term chunks
`memory_ingest`	Promote insight to long-term storage
`search_memories`	Jina embedding search
`health_check`	Coverage + conflict diagnostics
`soft_forget`	Soft-delete a memory
`explain_memory`	Trace memory provenance
...	(13 total)

The Hardest Part

The hardest part wasn't the embeddings or the storage. It was teaching AI assistants when to save vs. when to recall.

We ended up writing a session_boot tool that runs at the start of every conversation and injects the most relevant memories automatically. The agent doesn't have to think about it.

Try It

# 1. Set up .env (Supabase + Jina keys)
cp .env.example .env

# 2. Run migrations
npx supabase db push --db-url "<your-db-url>"

# 3. Start
MCP_PROFILE=my-agent npx @marsnme/mcp-gateway

# 4. Connect Claude Desktop
# Add to claude_desktop_config.json:
# { "mcpServers": { "marsnme": { "url": "http://127.0.0.1:18790/mcp" } } }
