LocalNest MCP
The only MCP server that combines code intelligence, knowledge graph, and AI memory in one local-first package.
Every other MCP server forces you to choose: memory or code intelligence. LocalNest is the first to unify all three pillars — 74 tools, zero cloud, pure SQLite.
| Pillar | What it does |
|---|---|
| Code Intelligence | Hybrid BM25+vector search, AST-aware chunking, symbol finding (defs/usages/callers) |
| Knowledge Graph | Temporal entity-triple store with multi-hop traversal and time-travel queries |
| Persistent Memory | Cross-session recall, semantic dedup, agent-scoped isolation |
No data leaves your machine. Embeddings, index, and memory stay local.
Quick Start
npm install -g localnest-mcp
localnest setup
localnest doctor
Beta track (interactive TUI dashboard):
