IndraDB / documentation

Quickstart

Connect your agent to a persistent record of its decisions.

Use indra_remember to record reasoning. Use indra_search to find past decisions. Branches let the agent explore other approaches.

1 / Install

Install Rust and Bun first.

cargo install indra_db
bun add -g indra_db_mcp

2 / Configure your agent

Choose your client in the MCP configuration guide. It covers Claude Desktop, OpenCode, and generic MCP clients.

For Claude Code, add this import to your project's CLAUDE.md:

@import node_modules/indra_db_mcp/INDRA_INSTRUCTIONS.md

The import points to a file inside your project's node_modules. It loads the instructions only. Register the MCP server in your client as well.

3 / Use the tools

Ask your agent a question, such as "Should I use PostgreSQL or MongoDB?" The agent can search past decisions, use the current context, and record its reason for later.

4 / Visualize (optional)

Push a database to the web app to see its entries in 3D. Replace username with your account name.

indra login
indra remote add origin username/my-agent
indra push origin

Sign in to the app. Read theweb platform guide.
