mem

mem is a command-line tool for developers who work inside Claude. As Claude writes memory notes during your sessions, mem pushes them into a shared, searchable knowledge base — so the next question, yours or Claude’s, is answered from what your team has already figured out.

What you can do

• mem save — analyze your Claude memory files and store them as developer knowledge (auto-titled, summarized, and classified)
• mem search "…" — semantic search across everything you’ve saved
• No duplicates — saving the same topic updates the existing entry instead of piling up
• mem install — wire the developer & customer chat servers into Claude Code, Cursor, or claude.ai
• Roles — admins create users and API keys from the CLI; developers just save and search

Requirements

• Node.js 18+ — nodejs.org
• Claude Code — the claude command available in your terminal

1. Install

macOS / Linux

curl -fsSL https://api-docs.innyalabs.com/install.sh | bash

Windows (PowerShell)

irm https://api-docs.innyalabs.com/install.ps1 | iex

Then open a new terminal so mem is on your PATH. Works behind a VPN/proxy, so it runs even on restricted networks.

2. Get started

First-time admin — create your organization (you become the admin):

mem register

It asks you, one at a time: company name, your username, and a password.

Teammates — an admin creates your account, then you log in:

mem login

It asks for the company slug (your company name lowercased, e.g. Acme → acme), your username, and password.

Admins add developers with a guided prompt:

mem user create

3. Connect to Claude

mem install --yes

One command — it mints your API key and registers the developer chat server in Claude. No keys to copy, no questions. Check it with claude mcp list (look for ai-docs-dev).

4. Use it

From the CLI

mem save                    # save your Claude memories into the team knowledge base
mem search "currency issue" # semantic search across saved knowledge

Inside Claude — just talk. Once connected, ask a question, then say:

“Summarize this and save it to mem.”

Claude stores it automatically. Later, anyone — or their Claude — just asks “what do we know about X?” and gets the answer, no re-research.

Uninstall

macOS / Linux

curl -fsSL https://api-docs.innyalabs.com/uninstall.sh | bash

Windows (PowerShell)

Tech

Node + TypeScript CLI over an Express API, Postgres (Neon), and a Pinecone vector store, with MCP servers so any Claude client can read the knowledge. Part of the AI Documents platform, deployed on a Hostinger VPS.
