worldku-mcp
The official MCP server for Worldku memory. Save AI conversations into your Worldku memory and recall them back — from Claude Code, claude.ai, ChatGPT, Codex, Gemini CLI, or any other MCP client.
Full setup guide: worldku.com/docs/mcp — step-by-step instructions for every client, authentication details, and troubleshooting. The same page in raw Markdown for AI agents: worldku.com/docs/mcp.md.
The fastest way to set up: paste this into your AI tool and let it walk you through —
I want to give you long-term memory with Worldku. Read https://www.worldku.com/docs/mcp.md and walk me through connecting it, in your own words.
Hosted service. The public endpoint is https://mcp.worldku.com/mcp. This
repository is the open access layer only: the memory extraction pipeline, prompt
rules, and platform services run on Worldku's infrastructure. Self-hosting this
worker will not give you a working service — it exists for transparency and
review, and connects to backends that require Worldku credentials.
Tools
| Tool | What it does | Cost |
|---|---|---|
memory_overview | Most recent memories, one line each (zero parameters) | 1 read |
memory_search | Semantic search over your memories | 1 read |
memory_recall | Filtered recall: time range / type / source, paginated | 1 read |
memory_save | Save the current conversation transcript for memory extraction | 1 save |
All tools fire only on your explicit ask — the tool descriptions instruct the model never to call them from ambient association. Saved transcripts go through Worldku's normal import pipeline: extraction runs asynchronously and new memories land in your memory workbench marked unread. Re-saving the same conversation is deduplicated server-side; extending a previously saved conversation appends only the new tail.
Connecting
Two authentication routes:
- OAuth 2.1 — claude.ai and ChatGPT need no key at all: point them at the server URL and sign in at worldku.com when prompted.
- Access key — CLI clients use a
wk_mcp_…key, minted at worldku.com → Memory manager → AI tools. The key is shown once at mint time; up to 20 keys per account, each independently revocable.
Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http --scope user worldku https://mcp.worldku.com/mcp \
--header "Authorization: Bearer wk_mcp_YOUR_KEY"
To keep the key out of the config file, export WORLDKU_MCP_KEY in your shell
profile and use single quotes: --header 'Authorization: Bearer ${WORLDKU_MCP_KEY}'.
claude.ai (web, desktop, mobile)
Settings → Connectors → Add → Add custom connector →
https://mcp.worldku.com/mcp → sign in at worldku.com. No key needed.
ChatGPT (web)
Enable Developer mode (Settings → Security and login), then create an app at chatgpt.com/plugins with the server URL and OAuth authentication. Sign in at worldku.com when prompted.
Codex CLI
export WORLDKU_MCP_KEY=wk_mcp_YOUR_KEY
codex mcp add worldku --url https://mcp.worldku.com/mcp --bearer-token-env-var WORLDKU_MCP_KEY
Gemini CLI
// ~/.gemini/settings.json — note the httpUrl field name
{
"mcpServers": {
"worldku": {
"httpUrl": "https://mcp.worldku.com/mcp",
"headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer wk_mcp_YOUR_KEY" }
}
}
}
Any other MCP client
Any client that supports Streamable HTTP with a custom header works:
- URL:
https://mcp.worldku.com/mcp - Header:
Authorization: Bearer wk_mcp_YOUR_KEY
The config field holding the URL varies by client (url for most, httpUrl
for Gemini CLI, serverUrl for some others) — a wrong field name usually makes
the client ignore the server silently. More examples in examples/
and in the full guide.
Protocol
- Native MCP revision 2026-07-28 (stateless Streamable HTTP): per-request metadata, no sessions, no SSE streams — every response is a single JSON object.
- Dual-era: the 2025-11-25 initialize-handshake era is also served (still statelessly — no session ids, no SSE), because that is what current-generation clients speak. This leg will be dropped once the client ecosystem moves to 2026-07-28.
server/discover,tools/list,tools/call, and the Tasks extension (tasks/get/tasks/update/tasks/cancel) for async save polling. Clients that do not declare the extension get synchronous receipts instead.- OAuth 2.1 resource server per the MCP authorization spec: RFC 9728 protected
resource metadata at
/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource, audience-bound opaque tokens,memory:read/memory:writescopes. The authorization server (worldku.com) supports Client ID Metadata Documents and PKCES256. - Discovery (SEP-2127 experimental): Server Card at
/mcp/server-card, AI Catalog at/.well-known/ai-catalog.json.
Limits
- 200 reads and 50 saves per user per day (anti-abuse caps, reset at 00:00 UTC).
- 10 MB per request.
- Reads and saves each book one usage action on your Worldku account. MCP access is included with every Worldku plan, including Free.
