Changelog

The panel was showing filenames. Since memorry server 0.5 every record has a title and tags in frontmatter, and the sidebar now reads both.

What's new

  • Titles come from frontmatter, falling back to the filename with its numeric id prefix stripped — records written before server 0.5 still list fine.
  • Coloured tag chips that double as filters: click one to narrow the list, click again to clear. Each chip carries its record count, so cluster sizes are readable at a glance.
  • Two-line body previews, so records are distinguishable without opening them. Search now covers the body and tags, not just title and project.
  • The meta line prefers updated_at when present and marks it edited. A record corrected in place keeps its original created_at, so showing only that made recently-fixed records look stale.

Tag colours

Colours are hashed from the tag name rather than looked up in a fixed vocabulary. Every user's tags are their own, in their own language; a hardcoded list would leave most of them grey. A hash gives a tag the same colour on every machine and every reload, which is all the eye needs to read clusters. Eight swatches live in styles.css.

Install

Download main.js, manifest.json and styles.css below into <your-vault>/.obsidian/plugins/memorry/, then reload Obsidian.

Requires Obsidian 1.7.2 or later.

obsidian-memorry

An Obsidian companion plugin for memorry — a local, API-key-free MCP memory server. Adds a dedicated sidebar pane to search, filter, and browse the memory records memorry syncs into your vault.

What it does

memorry's server already mirrors every memory record into your vault as a Markdown note (with id/project/title/tags/created_at/pinned frontmatter) and links related notes together for the Graph View. This plugin reads those notes directly and gives you:

  • A search box that filters by title, body, tags and project as you type
  • Coloured tag chips — click one to filter by it, click again to clear. Each chip carries its record count, so cluster sizes are visible at a glance
  • A project dropdown to narrow the list to one project
  • A pinned section that always surfaces your 📌 records first
  • Two-line previews so records are distinguishable without opening them
  • A live-updating list (re-scans automatically when notes change)
  • One click to open any record's underlying note

Tag colours are derived from the tag name itself, not a built-in vocabulary — your tags get stable colours whatever language you write them in.

Records written before server v0.5 have no title/tags; they still list fine, falling back to the filename with its numeric id prefix stripped.

What it doesn't do (yet)

This is read-only and vault-native — it parses frontmatter straight out of app.metadataCache, so it works even if the memorry server isn't running. It does not talk to the memorry MCP server over the network, which means:

  • No add/delete/pin-toggle from inside Obsidian (use the MCP tools, or edit frontmatter and let memorry's own sync reconcile it — not currently two-way, so this will drift; treat the vault as a mirror of the DB, not the source of truth)
  • Search is a simple substring match, not memorry's real FTS5/bm25 ranking (no Turkish suffix stripping either — the server matches yedek and yedekleri to the same records, this panel does not)

Implementing an in-plugin MCP client (streamable-http, JSON-RPC) to close that gap is the natural next step — issues/PRs welcome.

Install

Grab main.js, manifest.json, and styles.css from the latest release and drop them into <your-vault>/.obsidian/plugins/memorry/.

Then reload Obsidian (Command palette → "Reload app without saving"), enable memorry under Settings → Community plugins, and open the panel from the ribbon icon or the "Open memorry panel" command.

If you changed the server's Obsidian sync folder from its default, set the matching vault-relative folder name in the plugin's settings.

Upgrading from 0.1.0: the plugin id changed from obsidian-memorry to memorry (Obsidian's review guidelines discourage "obsidian" in plugin ids). Rename the plugin folder to memorry — or delete the old folder and install fresh — otherwise Obsidian will list it twice.

Build from source
