memwal

memwal is an MCP server for Claude Code from MystenLabs/MemWal. Its token cost is not measured, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A local bridge that connects coding tools such as Cursor and Claude Code to the Walrus Memory service. It runs as a small command-line server and uses a browser-based wallet sign-in the first time.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to configure the Walrus Memory connection through the provided npm package and run it locally over the tool's standard input and output.
Why use it?
It provides a way for supported coding tools to communicate with that memory service without requiring a separate desktop application. The input does not explain what kinds of memories the service stores.

MCP server for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} variable. Also seen: listed in a Claude config.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

Part of the memwal plugin — 3 hooks, 1 MCP server shipped together

Good fit Use it to configure the Walrus Memory connection through the provided npm package and run it locally over the tool's standard input and output.

Installing this writes the configuration, not the program: `node` runs a file from the repository, so clone it first and make the path in the command match where you put it.

Install

Getting it into your agent

This one installs as part of its plugin. Adding the marketplace and installing the plugin brings it with everything else the plugin ships.

/plugin marketplace add MystenLabs/MemWal
Claude Code

Installing this writes the configuration, not the program: `node` runs a file from the repository, so clone it first and make the path in the command match where you put it.

Made for: Claude Code.

Or install memwal, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 3 hooks, 1 MCP server.

Security

Grade A, and why

memwal scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
