Yes. Mem0 marked OpenMemory as sunsetting and removed it from its main code in July 2026. Mem0's MCP server now runs in Mem0's cloud. Mem0 still offers a self-hosted server for developers who want to run it themselves.

What if I don't want to run servers?

Konshus Sovereign is a signed Mac and Windows app that runs a small AI on a copy of your vault on your own computer. There's no Docker and no API key to manage.

Does it work with Claude, Cursor and other MCP apps?

Yes. Your Konshus vault has a connector that Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and other MCP-compatible apps can sign in to, so they read the same memory.

Can I move my OpenMemory data?

If you still have your OpenMemory export or backup, save the memories as a text file and upload it to Konshus. Then bring in your original chats too, so each memory can be traced back to where you said it.

OpenMemory is gone. Keep your AI memory local anyway.

OpenMemory was the easy way to give all your AI tools one private memory that stayed on your own machine. Mem0 has retired it. If staying local was the point, here are your options.

What happened

The OpenMemory page carries a sunsetting notice, and Mem0's old MCP project is archived in favour of a cloud-hosted MCP server. Developers can still run Mem0's self-hosted server, but the simple "one script, everything local" setup is gone.

Your three options

Mem0's cloud MCP. Easy, but your memories live on Mem0's servers.
Mem0 self-hosted server. Stays local, but you run and maintain it yourself.
