Cortex Connector MCP Server

Cortex — Semantic Memory for AI Agents

One external brain, model-agnostic, in production. Connect it to Claude in two minutes — free trial, no credit card.

Cortex is a patent-protected semantic memory infrastructure developed by SKYNETLAB (Bergamo, Italy). Connected to your AI assistant as a remote MCP connector, it lets your conversations save decisions, context and sources — and find them again in every later session. Your AI remembers, and can show why it remembers.

Why Cortex is not "just another memory plugin"

Most memory tools for AI agents record what the agent did and retrieve similar text later. Cortex models what is true and how reliable it is:

Cortex runs on globally distributed edge infrastructure operated in the European Union. The memory engine is covered by Italian patent application UIBM 102026000014026 (filed 15 May 2026).

Quick start — Claude (web / desktop / mobile)

Requirements: a Claude plan that supports custom connectors (the "Connectors" entry appears in Settings). No Cortex account needed beforehand — it is created on first sign-in.

1. In Claude open Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector

2. Paste this URL and confirm:

   https://skynetlab-cortex-saas-mcp.cortex-320.workers.dev/mcp
   

3. Authorize access on the Cortex consent page (Google or email sign-in). Your personal memory space is created automatically, isolated from every other user.

That's it. Talk to Claude as usual: "Remember that we chose supplier X", "what did we decide about the budget?", "show me the sources for this claim". Claude picks the right tool on its own.

Quick start — Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http cortex https://skynetlab-cortex-saas-mcp.cortex-320.workers.dev/mcp

Then authenticate when prompted (/mcp shows connection status).

Quick start — other MCP clients (stdio bridge)

For MCP clients that don't support remote connectors natively, use the mcp-remote bridge. Example configuration (see examples/):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cortex": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://skynetlab-cortex-saas-mcp.cortex-320.workers.dev/mcp"]
    }
  }
}

The six tools

Data & privacy

Memories are personal: each user only sees their own. They are exportable and deletable on request, and the infrastructure operates in the European Union. Details: Privacy Policy.

To disconnect, simply remove the connector from your client's settings; your memories remain in your Cortex account until you request their deletion.

Is this open source?

The Cortex memory engine is a hosted, patent-protected service — its source code is not published. This repository contains the public documentation and client-side configuration examples for connecting to it. Everything in this repository is released under the MIT License.
