Use MemoryPlugin with Claude AI assistant at [claude.ai](https://claude.ai).

## How to Use

### Remote MCP Server (Recommended)

The best way to use MemoryPlugin with Claude — works on desktop, mobile, and web with no install required:

1. Go to Claude Settings → Integrations → Add MCP Server
2. Add the [Remote MCP Server](/integrations/remote-mcp-server) URL
3. Memories load automatically in new chats — including on the Claude mobile app

### Browser Extension (Recommended add-on)

Add the browser extension alongside Remote MCP for **live chat history sync**:

1. Install the [MemoryPlugin Browser Extension](/integrations/browser-extension)
2. Go to [claude.ai](https://claude.ai)
3. Your Claude conversations are automatically synced to MemoryPlugin

### Local MCP Server

For Claude Desktop and other MCP clients that prefer a local process:

1. Install [Claude Desktop](https://claude.ai/download)
2. Configure the [MCP Server](/integrations/mcp-server) (local)
3. Memories load automatically in new chats

### Chat History Import

Import your Claude conversation history into MemoryPlugin:

* **File upload**: Export your Claude data and upload the conversations file
* **Online sync**: Sync conversations directly from the browser extension

Once imported, your past Claude conversations become searchable and available as context across all your AI tools. See the [Chat History](/features/chat-history/introduction) docs for more details.
