ContextStream MCP Server

Persistent memory. Millisecond code search.

Your agent knows code. Give it the decisions behind yours.

Connect your code, docs, and conversations so your agents can find the right files, recall saved decisions, and build on past work across sessions and tools.

Start free with MCP

10,000 monthly credits. No credit card required.

Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and other supported MCP clients. Create your account or sign in during MCP onboarding. No separate website signup needed.

macOS and Linux

curl -fsSL https://contextstream.io/mcp/install.sh | sh

Windows PowerShell

irm https://contextstream.io/mcp/install.ps1 | iex

Paste the command into your terminal and follow onboarding to connect your project and supported editor. Restart your editor after setup.

Make the next session useful

Ask your connected agent:

Use ContextStream to find the files relevant to my next change. Cite the sources and retrieve any saved project decisions that should guide the work.

Then ask it to save a real decision and its reason. Start a new session and retrieve that decision without explaining it again. Indexing supplies code context; it cannot recover every undocumented decision.

Proof and data controls

95 ms median code search in our published benchmark. This is the measured successful-response median for the disclosed configuration, not a latency guarantee. See results, methodology, and limitations.

Scoped access. Traceable sources. Configurable capture. Indexing sends eligible source contents to ContextStream for hosted search. Transcript saving and local Git metadata capture are on by default and can be turned off. Review data handling and controls before connecting sensitive projects.

Other installation options and troubleshooting

npm (Node.js 20+)

npx -y @contextstream/mcp-server@latest setup

The npm launcher downloads the native Rust binary for your platform and verifies its SHA-256 checksum. Pin an exact package version for production automation.

Hosted MCP without a local process

For clients supporting Streamable HTTP and OAuth, the hosted endpoint is:

https://mcp.contextstream.io/mcp

Use the MCP documentation for your client's configuration and stdio alternatives. A hosted connection alone does not sync your local checkout.

Preview or diagnose setup

contextstream-mcp setup --dry-run
contextstream-mcp doctor --scope=all --only-configured
