Tried this, no joy. I created a CORE API key from my workspace->API page, configured MCP with Claude Desktop, I get this: "You didn't provide an API key...You can obtain an API key from https://platform.openai.com/account/api-keys"

Other memory MCP servers do not require access to OpenAI - and not even sure why I would want any of my data going there when I use a paid Claude subscription.

I like the idea here, but doesn't seem very usable.

hey thanks for the feedback, agreed there are a lot to get right

1. If you have self hosted it yes then we need OpenAI api key, we are also working to get things working with llama so should be available soon (but if from cloud you shouldn't have got this error)

2. We also have moved away from openAI embedding (BGE-M3) to our own hosted in the cloud.

In self host we already have claude code support happy to help there
