How to connect Mem0 MCP with VS Code

VS Code is the most popular code editor out there. With its recent AI makeover, it can do more than just help you write code. You can connect your applications to it and let LLMs automate many of the mundane tasks in your workflow.

In this guide, I will explain how to connect Mem0 with VS Code in the most secure and robust way possible via Composio.

Why use Composio?

Composio provides:

  • Access to 1,000+ managed apps from a single MCP endpoint. This makes it convenient for agents to run cross-app workflows.
  • Programmatic tool calling. Allows LLMs to write its code in a remote workbench to handle complex tool chaining. Reduces to-and-fro with LLMs for frequent tool calling.
  • Large tool response handling outside the LLM context. This minimizes context bloat from large tool responses.
  • Dynamic just-in-time access to thousands of tools across hundreds of apps. Composio loads the tools your agent needs, so LLMs are not overwhelmed by tools they do not need.

Integrate Mem0 MCP with VS Code

1. Install with one click

Click the button below to add Composio to VS Code. You will be prompted to authorize. This requires VS Code 1.99+ with GitHub Copilot.

+Install in VS Code

2. Or add manually

Open or create .vscode/mcp.json in your project root and add the following configuration:

bash
{
  "servers": {
    "composio": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://connect.composio.dev/mcp"
    }
  }
}

3. Authorize

Click the install button to authorize VS Code to connect to Composio. VS Code will detect OAuth and prompt you to sign in.

4. Authenticate Mem0 and start working

Back in VS Code chat, ask the agent to connect to Mem0 or give it any Mem0-related task.

For example, ask it to:

  • "Store meeting notes from today's call"
  • "Export all project memories as CSV"
  • "Add new user to our team space"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access to Mem0.

That is it. Composio tools are now available in VS Code, and your Mem0 account is ready to use.

Way Forward

Now that Mem0 is connected, extend your setup by connecting the other apps you already use every day, so your agent can run true cross-app workflows end to end.

  • Connect Calendar to turn threads into scheduled meetings automatically.
  • Connect Slack or Teams to post summaries, approvals, and alerts where your team works.
  • Connect Notion, Linear, Jira, or Asana to convert requests into tickets, tasks, and docs.
  • Connect Drive, Dropbox, or OneDrive to fetch, file, and share attachments without manual steps.
  • Connect HubSpot or Salesforce to log customer context, update records, and draft follow-ups.

Start with one workflow you do repeatedly, then keep adding apps as you find new handoffs. With everything behind a single MCP endpoint, your agent can coordinate multiple tools safely and reliably in one conversation.

TOOLS

Supported Tools

Every Mem0 action and event your agent gets out of the box.

Add member to project

Adds an existing user to a project (identified by `project_id` within organization `org_id`), assigning a valid system role.

Add new memory records

Stores new memory records from a list of messages, optionally inferring structured content; requires association via `agent_id`, `user_id`, `app_id`, or `run_id`.

Add organization member

Adds a new member, who must be a registered user, to an organization, assigning them a specific role.

Create a new agent

Creates a new agent with a unique `agent_id` and an optional `name`; additional metadata may be assigned by the system.

Create a new agent run

Creates a new agent run in the mem0.

Create a new application

Creates a new application, allowing metadata to be passed in the request body (not an explicit field in this action's request model); ensure `app_id` is unique to avoid potential errors or unintended updates.

Create a new organization entry

Creates a new organization entry using the provided name and returns its details.

Create a new user

Creates a new user with the specified unique `user_id` and supports associating `metadata` (not part of the request schema fields).

Create memory entry

Lists/searches existing memory entries with filtering and pagination; critically, this action retrieves memories and does *not* create new ones, despite its name.

Create project

Creates a new project with a given name within an organization that must already exist.

Create webhook

Creates a new webhook for a specific project to receive real-time notifications.

Delete an organization

Permanently deletes an existing organization identified by its unique ID.

Delete memory by id

Permanently deletes a specific memory by its unique ID; ensure the `memory_id` exists as this operation is irreversible.

Delete entity by type and id

Call to permanently and irreversibly hard-delete an existing entity (user, agent, app, or run) and all its associated data, using its type and ID.

Delete memories

Deletes all memories matching specified filter criteria.

Delete memory batch with uuids

Deletes a batch of up to 1000 existing memories, identified by their UUIDs, in a single API call.

Delete project

Permanently deletes a specific project and all its associated data from an organization; this action cannot be undone and requires the project to exist within the specified organization.

Delete project member

Removes an existing member, specified by email address, from a project, immediately revoking their project-specific access; the user is not removed from the organization.

Delete webhook

Deletes a webhook and stops receiving notifications for the specified webhook ID.

Export data based on filters

Creates a new memory export job with optional entity filters (user_id, agent_id, app_id, run_id).

List organizations

Retrieves a summary list of organizations for administrative oversight; returns summary data (names, IDs), not exhaustive details, despite 'detailed' in the name.

Fetch details of a specific organization

Fetches comprehensive details for an organization using its `org_id`; the `org_id` must be valid and for an existing organization.

Get list of entity filters

Retrieves predefined filter definitions for entities (e.

Get entity by id

Fetches detailed information for an existing entity (user, agent, app, or run) identified by its type and unique ID.

Get event status by event ID

Retrieves a single async event by ID to check its current status and results.

Get memories by entity

Tool to retrieve all memories associated with a specific entity (user, agent, app, or run).

Get memory export

Retrieves the status and results of a memory export job by its ID.

Get organization members

Fetches a list of members for a specified, existing organization.

Get user memory stats

Retrieves a summary of the authenticated user's memory activity, including total memories created, search events, and add events.

List entities

Retrieves a list of entities, optionally filtered by organization or project (prefer `org_id`/`project_id` over deprecated `org_name`/`project_name`), noting results may be summaries and subject to limits.

Perform semantic search on memories

Searches memories semantically using a natural language query and metadata filters.

Remove a member from the organization

Removes a member, specified by their username, from an existing organization of which they are currently a member.

Retrieve all events for the currently logged in user

Retrieves a paginated list of events for the authenticated user, filterable and paginable via URL query parameters.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

With a standalone Mem0 MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Mem0 tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Mem0 and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

Yes, you can. VS Code fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right Mem0 tools.

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Mem0 scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do.

All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your Mem0 data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
