Palim tools (11, 2 write)

write = sends, deletes, buys or posts
  • palim_add_memoryFree

    Store a memory, fact, decision, or preference for later retrieval.

  • palim_checkpointFree

    Call after connecting AND again after each meaningful chunk of work. Claude Code: reuse claude-code-<client session id>.

  • palim_delete_memorywrite actionFree

    Permanently delete one stored memory by ID. Use for user-requested cleanup or deletion; this cannot be undone.

  • palim_delete_sessionwrite actionFree

    Delete a chat session. Soft delete by default (reversible). Use hard_delete=true for permanent deletion.

  • palim_get_brainFree

    Distilled knowledge profile. No args: recent topic index (capped). With topic: full document. Pass limit for a larger or full index.

  • palim_get_contextFree

    Get formatted context for a specific topic by searching and retrieving relevant sessions.

  • palim_helpFree

    Show an overview of all available Palim tools and usage instructions.

  • palim_resumeFree

    Continue the user's most recent Palim thread. Call first in a new chat, no args. Ignore the result if it is unrelated. Project filter is case-insensitive and returns the most recently updated match.

  • palim_save_contextFree

    Lightweight checkpoint: self-contained handoff, no transcript. Reuse session_id in this chat. Proactive after results and decisions, not only once.

  • palim_save_sessionFree

    Save or append a full chat transcript (messages + summary). Prefer palim_save_context for compact handoffs. For metadata-only or URL updates use palim_update_session_metadata / palim_update_session_references. When appending: reuse session_id + title, fetch existing messages first, send only new ones. Always pass a complete summary and metadata.tool_source.

  • palim_searchFree

    Search across all saved sessions. Supports full-text search via query, metadata filtering via tags/project/status/tool_source, or both. Omit query for tags-only or project-only filtering. Project match is case-insensitive.

Install Palim in Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code

claude mcp add --transport http palim https://api.usepalim.com/mcp
Add to Cursor

What the publisher says

From the Palim repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

Palim MCP examples

Copy-paste configs to connect Palim — a hosted MCP memory server — to Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, and other MCP clients.

Palim stores sessions, decisions, and memories you explicitly save, then makes them searchable from every connected AI client.

Not a local SQLite sidecar. Hosted MCP endpoint. Search today: PostgreSQL full-text + text match (not vector/semantic embeddings).

Quick links

Add to Cursor

One-click MCP install (OAuth on first use). Or copy configs/cursor.mcp.json.

Cursor Marketplace plugin

This repository is the public Cursor plugin source:

  • Cursor Plugin manifest: .cursor-plugin/plugin.json
  • Agent Plugins package: root plugin.json + mcp.json
  • Grok Build / Open Plugins discovery: root .mcp.json (same Palim streamable-http config as mcp.json)
  • Skill: skills/palim-memory/SKILL.md
  • Logo: assets/logo.svg

After marketplace review, install from Customize → Plugins / cursor.com/marketplace. Until then, use the deep link above or cursor.directory/plugins/palim.

Local test:

mkdir -p ~/.cursor/plugins/local
ln -sfn "$(pwd)" ~/.cursor/plugins/local/palim
# then Developer: Reload Window

Intent pages

  • Share context ChatGPT ↔ Claude
  • Hosted MCP memory server
  • Palim vs Mem0

Claude Code (OAuth)

claude mcp add --transport http palim https://api.usepalim.com/mcp

First use opens OAuth. API key alternative:

claude mcp add --transport http palim https://api.usepalim.com/mcp \
  --header "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY"

Also see configs/claude-code.sh.

Cursor (OAuth)

Settings → Tools & MCP → Add server → URL https://api.usepalim.com/mcp, or put this in ~/.cursor/mcp.json / .cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "palim": {
      "url": "https://api.usepalim.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

File: configs/cursor.mcp.json. Restart Cursor after edits. For API key auth, see configs/cursor.api-key.mcp.json.

Claude Desktop / Claude.ai

Add a custom connector / remote MCP:

  • URL: https://api.usepalim.com/mcp
  • Auth: OAuth (no API key required for that flow)

ChatGPT

  1. Settings → Apps → Advanced → enable Developer Mode
  2. Create app → URL https://api.usepalim.com/mcp → Auth: OAuth
  3. Advanced settings → disable OIDC (otherwise: “Authorization Request Expired” / token exchange failures)
  4. In each chat, mention @Palim — without that, tools are not available

Perplexity

API key from https://api.usepalim.com/setup. Settings → Connectors → Advanced → paste configs/perplexity.mcp.json and replace YOURAPIKEY.

Smoke test

In any connected client:

Palim Help

You should get the tool overview. Then save a real session and retrieve it from a second client.

What not to claim

  • Semantic / embedding search (not shipped)
  • Automatic sync without an explicit save (except documented extension/hooks)
  • ChatGPT Memory portability

Tools

Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.
