dropdat MCP server for Claude Code
Give Claude Code long-term, cross-session memory. Recall past conversations, save the current one, drop context into any AI client — all from inside Claude Code. Built for Anthropic's terminal coding agent — works from any project directory and survives across sessions.
Hybrid semantic recall
Vector cosine + BM25 fused with RRF. Asks in any phrasing, finds capsules that used different words.
Five MCP tools
dropdat_recall, dropdat_read, dropdat_list, dropdat_capsule, dropdat_autocapsule — all the surface an agent needs.
Cross-AI capsules
The same capsule library is reachable from Claude Code, Cursor, Cline, Claude Desktop, ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini.
Owned data
Capsules live in your dropdat library. Postgres + pgvector. Export anytime.
