Give Cursor and Windsurf Memory That Survives Every New Chat
Every new chat in Cursor or Windsurf starts cold. You re-explain your stack, naming rules, testing approach, and architectural decisions. MemoryLake adds stateful memory to AI coding tools — so Cursor, Windsurf, and Claude Code recall your project's conventions automatically through MCP.

The problem: AI coding tools forget your project conventions
You told Cursor yesterday to use pnpm not npm. Today it suggests npm install again. Windsurf doesn't remember you've already rejected three naming conventions. Each new chat is a fresh demand to re-brief the AI. The .cursorrules file helps for static rules, but not for evolving decisions and team conventions.
How MemoryLake solves stateful memory for AI coding tools
MCP-native integration
Cursor, Windsurf, and Claude Code read MemoryLake as a Model Context Protocol server. No plugins to maintain.
Skill memory for "the way we work"
Capture team conventions once. Every coding tool that touches the repo can call them.
Reflection memory tracks decisions
When you reject a suggestion, MemoryLake remembers why. Future chats stop repeating mistakes.
Cross-tool memory
The same project memory flows into Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Code, and any other MCP-enabled editor.

How it works for Cursor and Windsurf
- Connect — Add MemoryLake as an MCP server in your editor's settings.
- Structure — As you chat with the AI, decisions, conventions, and rejected suggestions are captured.
- Reuse — Every new chat starts pre-loaded with the project's accumulated memory.
Before vs. after: Cursor and Windsurf stateful memory
| Without MemoryLake | With MemoryLake | |
|---|---|---|
| New chat in Cursor | Re-explain stack and rules | Conventions pre-loaded |
| Rejected suggestion repeats | Yes, every time | No — reflection memory blocks it |
| Switching from Cursor to Windsurf | Lose all context | Memory follows the project |
| Onboarding a new dev | Re-train the AI from scratch | New dev inherits team memory |
Who this is for
Engineering teams using AI coding tools daily — Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Code, Continue — who are tired of re-briefing the AI every morning and want institutional coding knowledge to live somewhere durable.

Frequently asked questions
Does this replace `.cursorrules`?
Does this replace `.cursorrules`?
No — it complements it. Static rules belong in .cursorrules. Evolving conventions, decisions, and team learnings belong in MemoryLake.
Can the whole team share memory for one repo?
Can the whole team share memory for one repo?
Yes. Memory is workspace-scoped. Every developer's editor sees the same project memory.
How does it know what's worth remembering?
How does it know what's worth remembering?
MemoryLake captures decisions, rejected suggestions, and explicit "remember this" instructions. You can also write directly into it.
