Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Auditable agent memory: lessons cite their sources, and bad memories can be traced and removed.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs on your computer
  • Transport: stdio
  • Category: Search & AI memory

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
  • The registry lists no key to fill in.

You need

  • npmNode.js installed (for the npx command)

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

Common questions

Is Dreamd safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.2.2) reached the registry 2 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

dreamd

Agent memory you can audit. When a memory goes bad, trace it to its source, see what it fed, and remove it.

dreamd is local-first, long-term memory for AI agents. Every memory is a line in a file in your repo, every lesson your agents learn cites the events it came from, and each dream cycle commits its lessons to git. When an agent acts on something wrong, you can find the memory that caused it, see which lessons it fed, and take it out, with a receipt.

npx -y dreamd-mcp setup   # scaffold .agent/ and wire your harness

npx -y dreamd-mcp # MCP server (stdio): what the harness spawns

Recorded live on dreamd 1.2.0, sped up 1.5x: blame finds the event behind a bad answer, forget removes it with a receipt, and the same query comes back without it. Tape: docs/assets/blame-forget.tape.

Works today with Claude Code, Cursor, Cline and other MCP-aware harnesses. Self-hosted, single binary, Apache-2.0 core.

If you want agent memory you can trace and undo, star the repo to follow releases. When a memory goes wrong, an issue with the blame output helps us fix it.


Why auditable memory

Memory is the layer of an agent stack you usually can't see into. A prompt can be read and a model can be swapped, but when memory goes wrong there is rarely a way to tell what the agent believed, where that belief came from, or what else it touched.

That matters more now that memory is an attack surface. The OWASP Top 10 for Agentic Applications lists memory and context poisoning (ASI06): an attacker, a bad tool result or a plain mistake plants a "fact" that the agent keeps acting on in later sessions. The defenses OWASP points to start with knowing the source of every memory and being able to remove one cleanly (OWASP agentic top 10).

dreamd is built for that response:

You need todreamd gives you
See what drove an answerdreamd blame lists the stored memories behind a recall, with ids, timestamps, source and score. dreamd recall --explain prints the salience factors for each hit
Know where a lesson came fromEvery lesson in LESSONS.md cites the episodic events it was promoted from, and the provenance ledger records which event fed which lesson and index entry
Check the record is consistentdreamd doctor --provenance recomputes the ledger's Merkle root and lists orphan, missing and corrupt edges. Read-only
Remove a bad memorydreamd forget removes the event and the lesson state that names it. --dry-run shows what would change; --proof writes a forget-receipt/1.0 file
Review what agents learned.agent/ is committed with your code, and each dream cycle commits its output as dreamd: cycle YYYY-MM-DD. Review new lessons with git diff or in a pull request, and undo a cycle with git revert
Read everything yourselfPlain JSONL and Markdown. cat, grep and git log work on every byte

What dreamd does not do. It does not detect or block poisoned writes, and it does not filter injected lesson content (SECURITY.md). source_harness is asserted by the caller, not verified. The provenance ledger and the forget receipt are unsigned, and there are no trust labels yet. dreamd makes bad memory traceable and removable; it does not make it impossible. See Roadmap for what comes next.


The audit loop in four commands

Say an agent keeps repeating advice you know is wrong.

# 1. Find the memories behind it

npx -y dreamd-mcp blame "deploy without tests" --explain

2. Check the lesson it came from and what that lesson cites

cat .agent/semantic/LESSONS.md npx -y dreamd-mcp doctor --provenance

3. Preview, then remove the bad event (stop the daemon, npx -y dreamd-mcp watch, first; forget refuses while it runs)

npx -y dreamd-mcp forget evt_... --dry-run npx -y dreamd-mcp forget evt_... --proof forget-receipt.json

4. Review the change like code

git diff .agent/

After a forget, doctor --provenance reports the removed event's old ledger edges as orphans and exits 1. That is expected: the ledger is append-only, so it keeps the record that the event once existed.

To undo a whole dream cycle instead, git revert its dreamd: cycle commit with the daemon stopped, then run npx -y dreamd-mcp doctor --repair to rebuild the recall index.


Install

npm (recommended)
npx -y dreamd-mcp setup   # scaffold .agent/ and write the harness MCP config

npx -y dreamd-mcp # MCP server (stdio): your harness spawns this

stdio is the default transport. dreamd mcp --bind 127.0.0.1: is an opt-in Streamable HTTP server at /mcp. It is unauthenticated, and it is only in source builds with --features mcp-http. See docs/mcp-transports.md.

dreamd needs a project root sentinel (.git/, Cargo.toml, package.json or pyproject.toml).

setup prompts when it has a TTY. In scripts and non-interactive shells, pass --yes --harness claude|cursor|both (--harness none or --no-write-mcp scaffolds without touching any MCP config).

Cargo / from source
git clone https://github.com/botzrDev/dreamd.git

cd dreamd cargo install --path crates/dreamd-cli

See CONTRIBUTING.md for the full dev setup.


Quick start (under a minute)

If ~/your-project is a brand-new folder, run git init first.

cd ~/your-project

npx -y dreamd-mcp setup

Optional: shared daemon, recommended when several agents write

npx -y dreamd-mcp watch

Reload your harness. setup already wired the dreamd MCP server, so the harness spawns npx -y dreamd-mcp itself.

Ask the agent to search memory for something it learned earlier. It calls search_nodes and recalls prior context, with the source harness on every hit.

cat .agent/episodic/AGENT_LEARNINGS.jsonl

npx -y dreamd-mcp dream --dry # preview the lesson the next cycle would write npx -y dreamd-mcp doctor

The npm shim does not put dreamd on PATH. Use npx -y dreamd-mcp on the npm path, or cargo install --path crates/dreamd-cli for the dreamd binary. From 1.2.1 the shim forwards every dreamd command; the 1.2.0 shim did not forward recall, score, status, archive and migrate.

Adapters: Claude Code · Cursor · Cline

Recorded live, sped up 1.5x: Claude Code writes the lesson, OpenCode reads it back through the same .agent/ folder. Tape: docs/assets/demo.tape.


How agents learn

Agents write episodes (what happened, how painful it was, how important) through MCP append_node. The dream cycle clusters episodes by skill_action and promotes a recurring pattern into a lesson in LESSONS.md. With an API key it composes the lesson with an LLM under a $0.10 per-cycle spend cap; without one it writes a deterministic lesson and makes no network call. Either way the lesson cites the events it came from, and every output is staged and committed through one redo WAL, so a crash leaves the store as it was or rolls the cycle forward.

Recall ranks episodes and lessons with BM25 × salience (age decay, pain, importance, recurrence). Recall is deliberately lexical; vector recall is not shipped (docs/vectors.md). Formula: docs/salience.md.


What dreamd writes

LocationContentsCommit?
/.agent/Episodic JSONL, semantic lessons, personal prefsYes (this is the shared memory)
/.agent/.dreamd/Local index, daemon state, config template, provenance ledgerNo (gitignored by init)
~/.agent/registry.tomlWhich projects have a storeNo
~/.agent/dreamd.sockDaemon API socket (while running)No

setup scaffolds the store by calling init, then writes the harness MCP config. Both are idempotent. To uninstall from a machine, run npx -y dreamd-mcp uninstall. On a tty it waits for y; pass --yes in a script. Without a tty and without --yes it exits 2 and changes nothing. Project .agent/ stores are left in place. npx -y is npx's flag, not dreamd's --yes. npx -y dreamd-mcp init --uninstall-project drops only the registry entry; dreamd init puts it back and does not rewrite the store.


All inspection commands

The MCP surface is two tools (search_nodes, append_node). Everything else is CLI over the same files. dreamd --help is the reference for flags.

CommandWhat it does
dreamd recall Ranked search as a markdown table. --explain prints the salience factors per hit; --without / --without-cluster drop hits before top-k, so you can see the answer without a suspect memory
dreamd blame Which stored memories drove a query's ranking: id, timestamp, skill_action, bm25, salience, total, layer. --json for one compact array
dreamd scoreTop memories by salience alone, no query
dreamd salience-driftSalience distribution, top clusters, and drift against the snapshot from seven days earlier. See docs/observability.md
dreamd dream --dryPrint the LESSONS.md the next cycle would write, without writing
dreamd forget Remove one episodic event and the lesson state that names it. --dry-run writes nothing; --proof writes a forget-receipt/1.0 file (a receipt, not a signed proof). Refuses while the daemon is running
dreamd doctor --provenanceRecompute the provenance ledger's Merkle root and list orphan edges, missing edges and corrupt lines. Read-only. See docs/provenance.md
`dreamd memory branch\checkout\branches\delete\diff\bisect`Deprecated in 1.2.0, removed in 2.0. .agent/ is plain files, so use git. See docs/branching-guide.md

Architecture (one paragraph)

Agents talk to dreamd over MCP. On Linux and macOS the MCP server proxies to a single-writer daemon (dreamd watch) over HTTP on a Unix domain socket, or runs in-process when no daemon is present. On Windows it proxies to loopback dreamd watch and exits 2 when that daemon is down. One writer lock covers every process that writes a project. The coordinator appends to AGENT_LEARNINGS.jsonl and feeds a Tantivy BM25 index; recall ranks hits with the salience formula, and each hit carries source_harness and skill_action. Details: ARCHITECTURE.md · SPEC.md · docs/http-api.md. Warm recall latency (local Criterion benches) is in PERF.md.
