Dense Knowledge

Overview

Dense Knowledge is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server: Local-first MCP memory server for persistent LLM knowledge with BM25 retrieval. In practice that means any MCP-compatible AI assistant can call Dense Knowledge's tools directly — the model decides when to use them in a conversation or agent run.

It runs locally: the Python package dense-knowledge-mcp (via uvx) speaks MCP over stdio on your machine. No credentials are required — it works out of the box. The current release is v1.2.0, published under the MIT license, with source at Lucky44k/dense-knowledge-mcp on GitHub.

Dense Knowledge is listed under AI & Agents on mcp.site and works with any MCP client — Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed and the rest of the ecosystem — using the install snippets below.
