Based on GitHub stars and recent activity, codebase-memory-mcp by DeusData (★ 46.5k, updated today) is the most popular actively maintained option on HookMCP, followed by serena and Repomix. The right choice depends on whether you need write access, a hosted (remote) endpoint, or a server that runs locally without an API key.
Open the server's page on HookMCP, choose your client tab (Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code or Claude Code) and copy the config — 12 of the 27 servers here have one-click install links for Cursor and VS Code. Restart your AI app and the new tools appear automatically.
18 of 27 servers here mention API keys or tokens in their README; 9 don't mention any. Check each listing's Details panel, and pass keys as environment variables rather than pasting them into chat.
