Cursor, VS Code & Windsurf
For AI Agents
Machine-readable docs: mnemoverse/llms.txt (works in all sandboxes)
Give your code editor persistent memory. Each editor has its own step-by-step guide — pick yours:
- Cursor — one-click Add to Cursor button, or
.cursor/mcp.json - VS Code & Copilot Chat — keyless extension with browser sign-in (the simplest path), remote OAuth URL, or
.vscode/mcp.json - Windsurf (Devin Desktop) —
~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json(the path survives the rename)
Which path fits you
| Chat client | Install path | Keyless? |
|---|---|---|
| VS Code + Copilot Chat — Agent Mode | Mnemoverse Memory extension → guide | ✅ browser sign-in |
| VS Code 1.102+ — remote URL | http server at https://mcp.mnemoverse.com/mcp → guide | ✅ OAuth |
| VS Code + Copilot Chat — Ask / Edit Mode | Not supported — MCP servers only run in Agent Mode | — |
| Cursor | One-click button or .cursor/mcp.json → guide | 🔑 key (native OAuth allowlisted) |
| Windsurf — now Devin Desktop (docs) | ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json → guide | 🔑 key |
| Any other MCP-consuming extension | Manual mcp.json per its docs — config shape as in the guides above | 🔑 key |
For the manual configs you'll need an API key — get one free at console.mnemoverse.com (no credit card). If you already have a key from Claude Code or ChatGPT — use the same one. That's the point: same key, same memory, every tool.
One memory across editors
