Verdict

Pick Chronulus AI MCP Server if you want a local (stdio) server that keeps data on your machine, and you need the broadest set of tools.

Pick OpenMemory MCP if you prefer the more popular, battle-tested option, and you want a hosted/remote server with nothing to install.

Add Chronulus AI MCP Server

Install / run

pip install chronulus-mcp

Paste into ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "chronulus-ai-mcp-server": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "chronulus-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "CHRONULUS_API_KEY": "<YOUR_CHRONULUS_API_KEY>"
      }
    }
  }
}

Requires `uv` (the Python package runner). Install it from https://docs.astral.sh/uv/ if `uvx` is not found.

Add OpenMemory MCP

Install / run

curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mem0ai/mem0/main/openmemory/run.sh | OPENAI_API_KEY=your_api_key bash

Paste into ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "openmemory-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-remote",
        "http://localhost:8765/mcp/<client-name>/sse/<user-id>"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop connects to remote servers through the `mcp-remote` proxy (installed on first run via npx). Restart Claude Desktop after saving.
