What data it sees
Do you need an account
No: the server works without sign-in
Your agents learn. Your team forgets. Your Claude Code agent and your teammate's Cursor agent don't know what the other one already figured out. threadctx is the shared memory layer that fixes that — one MCP server, your whole team, every tool. So “we tried that, it broke prod” is something every engineer's agent knows.

| memory_write | Store a learning, decision, fix, or gotcha in the team's shared memory so any teammate (or their coding agent) can find it later. Call this whenever you resolve a non-obvious bug, make an architectural decision, or learn something that would save someone time. Write it so a future reader has full context. |
| memory_query | Retrieve relevant past learnings, fixes, decisions, and gotchas from the team's shared memory before starting risky or repeated work. Call this before, not after — a teammate may have already solved what you are about to attempt. |
