Quick Start

Install and initialize with your preferred agent profiles:

pip install marm-mcp-server
marm-memory init --g-claude --g-codex --g-gemini

Also available: --g-qwen and --g-kiro. Run without flags to install into your current project folder instead of home

Hand off to your AI companion. Tell your agent:

"Use the marm-init skill to set up MARM."

Interact: Your agent will handle the entire setup (Python/Docker, HTTP/STDIO, keys, and client configs) interactively right inside your chat.

Manual setup

Prefer to wire it up yourself:

Replace "agent" with your client’s CLI command (for example, claude, gemini, or qwen). For Codex, use codex mcp add marm-memory --url http://localhost:8001/mcp instead.

Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.
