dropdat MCP server for Cline

Give Cline long-term, cross-session memory. Recall past conversations, save the current one, drop context into any AI client — all from inside Cline. Cline's autonomous loops burn through context fast — a dropdat capsule per task makes the next run pick up where this one stopped.

Install in Cline View on GitHub

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.
