Connect your agent
kyma is a context engine: one place your coding agent recalls durable, graph-aware memory, queries live data (logs, traces, code, data sources) in KQL/SQL, and walks the graph that links them. Getting an agent connected takes one command.
MCP is the cross-agent standard — but it's pull-only (the agent only sees what it explicitly asks for). kyma meets your agent where it is, with three first-class paths that share the same engine:
| Path | Best for | What's special |
|---|---|---|
| Claude Code plugin | Claude Code | Automatic — captures each turn and injects the most relevant memories into every prompt; plus slash commands. |
| CLI + skill | Cursor, Aider, Continue, any shell-tool agent | The agent shells out to kyma query / kyma recall; a skill teaches it when. |
| MCP | Any MCP client (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, …) | The full tool surface over stdio or HTTP. |
Pick one (they compose — the plugin uses both hooks and MCP).
Fastest path — MCP, zero infra
The local single binary needs no Postgres and no Docker (embedded SQLite + local files):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/shakedaskayo/kyma/main/install.sh | bash
kyma setup claude-code # or: cursor · windsurfsetup writes the agent's MCP config to launch kyma mcp over stdio; data lives under ~/.kyma. Restart the agent and it has the full toolset. kyma setup list shows the supported agents; --print previews the config without writing it; any other agent gets a paste-able stdio snippet.
Automatic capture + recall — the Claude Code plugin
The plugin is the "it just remembers" path: hooks capture each session into the firehose and inject recalled context into every prompt with no tool call, plus slash commands. It shells out to the kyma CLI and points at a kyma endpoint (a server, or a local kyma serve):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/shakedaskayo/kyma/main/install.sh | bash # the `kyma` CLI — the plugin's hooks use it
kyma connect <kyma-url> # a kyma server, or a local `kyma serve`
kyma install-plugin # installs hooks + slash commands into ~/.claudeYou get /kyma-recall, /kyma-remember, /kyma-ask, /kyma-ingest, and /kyma-status on top of the automatic capture/recall. See Claude Code plugin for the hook wiring and configuration.
Any agent — the CLI + a skill
Any coding tool that can shell out becomes context-aware:
kyma connect <kyma-url> --token <bearer>
kyma install-skill --also-link-claude # writes a SKILL.md that teaches the agent when to use kyma
kyma recall "how do we run database migrations?" # recall before answering
kyma remember "Prefer KQL over SQL in examples" --type preference # save durable memory
kyma query "what error logs from prod-api in the last 15 minutes?" # ask live data
kyma entity "payments service" --kind service --link "repo:owner/name|github|LIVES_IN"The installed skill teaches the agent the full loop — recall before answering, remember what's durable, query live data, enrich the graph.
See Connect a coding agent (CLI) for the full CLI surface.
MCP details
The MCP server exposes the same toolset over two transports:
- stdio —
kyma mcp(whatsetupwires). Zero infra, local. - HTTP —
POST /mcp/v1on any running kyma server (orkyma serve), bearer-auth.
Either way an MCP client gets the full context-engine surface — memory (memory_search · recall_memory · save_memory · list_memories), graph (ingest_entity · link_memory_to_entity · graph_traverse · find_references_to), live data (run_kql · run_sql · explore_schema · describe_table · sample_rows · list_databases), and curation (update_memory_status/importance · memory_compare · memory_judge · memory_session_summary). Call memory_search first; follow linked resources with graph_traverse.
Local ↔ server: two tiers, one memory
The same context engine runs two ways, and memory stays coherent across them:
kyma(local mode) — one binary per developer: stdio MCP (kyma mcp), an optional local web UI (kyma serve), and on-demand ingest. Zero infra.- kyma server — the team control plane: Postgres + object store, scheduled data sources, background consolidation, the full web app.
Keep a machine in sync with the control plane (push local changes + pull remote ones, incrementally):
