@contextable/mcp

Give your AI a memory. Works with Claude Desktop and any MCP-compatible client.

Quick Start (30 seconds)

Add to your Claude Desktop config:

macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "contextable": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["@contextable/mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude Desktop. Done.

Now ask Claude: "Create a project called My App to track my development decisions"

What You Can Do

Save context that persists across conversations:

• "Save this architecture decision to the project"
• "Remember this API design for later"
• "Store this bug investigation so I don't forget"

Find anything instantly:

• "Search for authentication"
• "What did we decide about the database?"
• "Load all security-related artifacts"

Pick up where you left off:

• "Resume my project"
• "Show me the project summary"
• "What were we working on?"

Import your chat history (NEW):

• "Analyze my ChatGPT export at ~/Downloads/chatgpt-export.zip"
• "Import the 'React Development' project from my chat history"
• "What projects can you detect from my Claude conversations?"
