Claude find: MCP server, setup and security

What Claude find does

According to its repository: “Retrieve memory from across your Claude Code sessions on demand.”

An MCP server gives an AI agent extra tools it calls during the conversation: the agent reads their description, decides to use them and gets the result back. Claude find is listed under Memory and knowledge, a category of 250 servers in the directory, where it ranks #181 by stars.

Topics declared by the repository: claude, claude-code, cli, embeddings, ollama, semantic-search.

Installing and connecting Claude find

Distribution modes declared in the official MCP registry:

• npm package (Node.js, usually started with npx)

Like any MCP server, you declare it in your client's configuration (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Codex…): a name, the command that starts it or its URL, and any environment variables. The client then starts it and lists its tools. Project language: TypeScript. Listed systems: macOS.

Security: what to check

An MCP server runs code with the rights you give it, and the model reads its tool descriptions: a malicious or compromised server can hijack the agent. Read the code, or pick a maintained and widely used server, before connecting it.

None of the risk signals we track (system access, secrets, missing licence, abandonment) applies to Claude find. That does not replace reading the code.

Good practice: grant only the rights needed (least privilege), require human approval for irreversible actions, and run the AI agent security check.

Project activity and maintenance

Created on April 25, 2026, the Cavinooo/claude-find repository has 12 stars and 1 forks, with 0 open issues. It has more stars than 29% of the servers in the directory. Last change 5 months ago. Version published in the registry: 0.2.5 (May 4, 2026).

Stars measure attention, not quality: a recent, heavily promoted project can collect them fast, while a useful but niche server will have few.
