setup

setup is a skill for Claude Code from LogicLabsAI/ultramemory-mcp. It costs 32 tokens per session (500 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A setup guide for connecting UltraMemory, a shared memory service, to Claude through an API key and an MCP server. It checks the connection and helps diagnose authorization errors.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to set the API key, register the UltraMemory server, test a recall, and troubleshoot 401 or 403 connection errors.
Why use it?
It removes the guesswork from first-time configuration and confirms that memory recall works end to end.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

setup 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 8d 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 it actually says

UltraMemory Setup

One memory across Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Codex & Hermes — recalls first every turn and says "I don't know" instead of guessing. Every recall passes an anti-confabulation gate (answer | verify | abstain).

Walk the user through first-time configuration, IN ORDER:

1. Check the API key

Check whether ULTRAMEMORY_API_KEY is set in the environment:

echo "${ULTRAMEMORY_API_KEY:+set}"

If it is empty, ask the user to get a key at https://app.ultramemory.us/app/connect (an um_ key), then export it:

export ULTRAMEMORY_API_KEY=um_YOUR_KEY

2. Verify the MCP server is connected

claude mcp list

Look for an ultramemory entry. If it is missing, register it with:

claude mcp add --transport http ultramemory https://api.ultramemory.us/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer um_YOUR_KEY"

(Replace um_YOUR_KEY with the user's key from step 1.)

3. Run a test recall

Call the memory_recall MCP tool with a simple query (e.g. "test recall"). Confirm it returns a JSON response — an answer, or an honest abstain if memory is empty. Either confirms the connection works end to end.

4. Troubleshooting 401 / 403

  • 401 Unauthorized — the key is missing, malformed, or revoked. Re-check the Authorization: Bearer um_... header value against the key shown at https://app.ultramemory.us/app/connect, then re-run step 2 with the corrected key.
  • 403 Forbidden — the key is valid but not allowed for this action (e.g. revoked key, plan/seat limit, or a member key writing to a shared scope). Verify the key's status and plan at https://app.ultramemory.us/app/connect, or generate a fresh key and re-register.

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.

setup is a skill published in the GitHub repository LogicLabsAI/ultramemory-mcp (1 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 32 tokens to every session and 500 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.

recall

Recall this repository's OwnMem local memory before changing code, and keep it healthy.
