About Mcp Server Rabel
Mcp Server Rabel gives AI assistants persistent memory that runs entirely locally. It is for users who need to retain and retrieve facts and relationships, combining semantic search, a relation graph, and non-enforcing bilingual guidance with graceful operation when optional dependencies are absent.
Key features
- 01Local persistent memory
- 02Semantic memory search
- 03Entity relation graph
- 04English and Dutch pipeline guidance
- 05Graceful operation without optional dependencies
Use cases
- 01Retain user or team facts across sessions
- 02Search stored memories in natural language
- 03Record and query relations between entities
- 04Get English or Dutch task-flow guidance
MCP support
As an MCP server, it provides clients with tools for adding and searching memories, managing relations, retrieving pipeline guidance, and viewing statistics.
Configuration
Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.
We haven’t collected a package or remote endpoint for this server. Follow the instructions in the project README.
Tools
Local servers expose tools only once running on your machine, and the maintainer has not provided a tool list.

Recidive Active Brain Environment Layer
Local-first AI memory with semantic search, graph relations, and soft pipelines. Mem0 inspired, HumoticaOS evolved.

🚀 Quick Start
Option 1: pip install (recommended)
# Install
pip install mcp-server-rabel
# For full features (vector search)
pip install mcp-server-rabel[full]
# Add to Claude CLI
claude mcp add rabel -- mcp-server-rabel
# Verify
claude mcp list
# rabel: ✓ Connected
Option 2: Docker
# Build
docker build -t mcp-server-rabel .
# Run (MCP uses stdio)
docker run -i mcp-server-rabel
# With persistent data
docker run -i -v rabel-data:/data mcp-server-rabel
Option 3: From source
git clone https://github.com/jaspertvdm/RABEL.git
cd RABEL
pip install -e .

🤔 What is RABEL?
RABEL gives AI assistants persistent memory that works 100% locally.
Before RABEL:
AI: "Who is Storm?" → "I don't know, you haven't told me"
After RABEL:
You: "Remember: Storm is Jasper's 7-year-old son"
AI: *saves to RABEL*
Later...
You: "Who is Storm?"
AI: *searches RABEL* → "Storm is Jasper's 7-year-old son!"
No cloud. No API keys. No data leaving your machine.

📖 Examples
Adding Memories
# Remember facts
rabel_add_memory(content="Jasper is the founder of HumoticaOS", scope="user")
rabel_add_memory(content="TIBET handles trust and provenance", scope="team")
rabel_add_memory(content="Always validate input before processing", scope="agent")
Searching Memories
# Semantic search - ask questions naturally
rabel_search(query="Who founded HumoticaOS?")
# → Returns: "Jasper is the founder of HumoticaOS"
rabel_search(query="What handles trust?")
# → Returns: "TIBET handles trust and provenance"
Knowledge Graph
# Add relations
rabel_add_relation(subject="Jasper", predicate="father_of", object="Storm")
rabel_add_relation(subject="TIBET", predicate="part_of", object="HumoticaOS")
rabel_add_relation(subject="RABEL", predicate="part_of", object="HumoticaOS")
# Query relations
rabel_get_relations(subject="Jasper")
# → Jasper --father_of--> Storm
rabel_get_relations(predicate="part_of")
# → TIBET --part_of--> HumoticaOS
# → RABEL --part_of--> HumoticaOS
Soft Pipelines (Bilingual!)
# Get guidance in English
rabel_get_guidance(intent="solve_puzzle", lang="en")
# → "Puzzle: Read → Analyze → Attempt → Verify → Document"
# Get guidance in Dutch
rabel_get_guidance(intent="solve_puzzle", lang="nl")
# → "Puzzel: Lezen → Analyseren → Proberen → Verifiëren → Documenteren"
# What's next?
rabel_next_step(intent="solve_puzzle", completed=["read", "analyze"])
# → Suggested next step: "attempt"

Graceful Degradation
RABEL works with minimal dependencies:
| Feature | Without extras | With [full] |
|---|---|---|
| Text memories | ✅ | ✅ |
| Text search | ✅ (LIKE query) | ✅ (semantic) |
| Graph relations | ✅ | ✅ |
| Soft pipelines | ✅ | ✅ |
| Vector search | ❌ | ✅ |
| Embeddings | ❌ | ✅ (Ollama) |
🌍 Philosophy
"LOKAAL EERST - het systeem MOET werken zonder internet"
(LOCAL FIRST - the system MUST work without internet)
RABEL is built on the belief that:
- Your data stays yours - No cloud, no tracking, no API keys
- Soft guidance beats hard rules - Pipelines suggest, not enforce
- Bilingual by default - Dutch & English, more coming
- Graceful degradation - Works with minimal deps, better with more
🙏 Credits
Inspired by: Mem0 - Thank you for the architecture insights!
We took their ideas and made them:
- 100% local-first
- Bilingual (EN/NL)
- With soft pipelines
- With graph relations

New to MCP?
From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
