Cornerstone Server

MCP server providing 17+ tools for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, and any MCP-compatible client to interact with Cornerstone memory.

Quick Start

1. Clone and set up:

   git clone https://github.com/supramal1/cornerstoneMCP.git
   cd cornerstoneMCP
   bash setup.sh
   

2. Edit .env with your API URL and key

3. Add to Claude Code settings

4. Start using it:

   • "Remember that the project deadline is March 15" → saves to memory
   • "What do we know about the Google pitch?" → recalls from memory
   • "Forget the old project deadline" → removes from memory

Deploy

Deployed to Google Cloud Run (europe-west2). See cornerstone repo for deploy scripts.

Auth

OAuth 2.1 with JWT principal-based access control. Falls back to legacy API key auth.

Configuration

Required env vars: CORNERSTONE_URL, CORNERSTONE_API_KEY, OAUTH_JWT_SECRET, MCP_PUBLIC_URL.

Optional: DISABLE_OAUTH=true skips OAuth advertisement entirely (no /.well-known/oauth-*, no WWW-Authenticate: Bearer ...). Use when this MCP is fronted by a gateway (e.g. obot) that owns user auth and proxies inbound traffic without an Authorization header. Backend calls still authenticate via CORNERSTONE_API_KEY.

Tools

Simple (start here)

Tool	Purpose	Example
remember	Save anything to memory	remember("The budget is $50K")
recall	Search memory	recall("client's email?")
forget	Remove from memory	forget("old_deadline", confirm=True)

Workspace

Tool	Purpose
list_workspaces	See available workspaces
switch_workspace	Change active workspace
get_current_workspace	See which workspace is active
set_default_workspace	Set default workspace

Advanced

Tool	Purpose
get_context	Full context retrieval with metadata
add_fact	Save a structured key-value fact
add_note	Save a freeform note
search	Search across all memory types
list_facts	List recent facts
get_recent_sessions	See recent conversations
list_threads	See conversation threads
report_context_feedback	Rate retrieval quality

Review (MC-2 propose-then-approve)

Tool	Purpose
mc_list_proposals	List agent-proposed facts awaiting human review
mc_promote_facts	Promote proposed facts to current memory
mc_reject_facts	Reject proposed facts (reason required, stored verbatim)

Promote/reject relay the gateway-injected X-Forwarded-User-Email header on the outbound API call so the decision is attributed to the human reviewer. Absent the header (e.g. stdio), the decision is recorded without a forwarded identity.

Most users only need remember and recall. The advanced tools give you more control when you need it.
