Memscope

Install memscope-mcp

Memscope runs as a local stdio MCP server on Windows. Prepare the host before configuring a client or selecting a target.

Requirements

Section titled “Requirements”
  • Windows x64 host and x64 target processes.
  • A 64-bit Python 3.10 or newer interpreter.
  • An MCP-compatible client with stdio support.
  • Sufficient Windows permissions for the selected process and operation.

Windows access checks still apply after the server starts. A process can deny query, VM-read, VM-write, thread, or debug-related operations.

Install the package

Section titled “Install the package”

Install from the package source configured for your environment:

Terminal window
python -m pip install memscope-mcp

Confirm the console entry point resolves and inspect the local data paths:

Terminal window
memscope-mcp paths

The bare command starts the same stdio server as memscope-mcp server. It does not open a network listener.

Next step

Section titled “Next step”

Configure your MCP client to start the console command over stdio. Permissions and local data documents Windows access checks and data-root locations.
