Release archives

Every tag vX.Y.Z publishes five archives and a checksum file on the releases page:

Each archive contains the binary, LICENSE, README.md and SKILL.md.

The optional macOS menu-bar app comes as one more asset, memors-tray_X.Y.Z_darwin_universal.zip, with its own .sha256 file; see MemoRS Tray.

memors-mcp version

memors-mcp version prints the build version, the MCP protocol version (2026-07-28), the Go version and the model directory.

macOS Gatekeeper. A binary downloaded by a browser carries a quarantine attribute and is blocked on first run. Clear it with xattr -d com.apple.quarantine ~/.local/bin/memors-mcp, or download with curl, which does not set it.

MCP registry

The server is listed in the MCP registry as io.github.kKEo/memors. Its server.json points at the release archives with their checksums, so registry-aware clients can install it directly.

What the binary needs at runtime

• No shared libraries, no CGo, no interpreter. (This is the memors-mcp binary. MemoRS Tray, the separate macOS app, links AppKit and WebKit.)
• A writable MEMORS_HOME, by default ~/.memors-mcp, and a writable ~/.cache/memors-mcp/models.
• About 200 MB of disk for the default model, plus the knowledge-base files. See Capacity and performance.
• Network access to huggingface.co once per model, unless you pre-seed the cache.
