Overview

What is MindOS?

MindOS is a local-first knowledge base that lets AI agents read and write your Markdown notes via MCP. Think of it as persistent memory for your agents — stored on your own machine, in plain Markdown files.

Quick Start

# Install and start
npm install -g @geminilight/mindos
mindos onboard   # interactive setup
mindos start     # starts app (port 3000) + MCP server (port 8787)

Then add to your agent's MCP config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mindos": {
      "url": "http://localhost:8787/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer your-token" }
    }
  }
}
