Overview
From the repository's own README, as read at the audited commit. Badges and raw HTML are left out.
Part of the [HeLa MCP Ecosystem](https://github.com/1999AZZAR/hela-mcp-ecosystem) — This server is HeLa Genome (`hela-genome`) — the State & Memory component of the HeLa cellular architecture. See the ecosystem docs for profiles, workflows, and multi-client setup.
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for persistent project memory, knowledge-graph operations, SQLite data access, runtime security checks, and guided project-management workflows. The current registry exposes 38 tools, 11 resources, and 27 prompts.

Questions
What is the project-mcp MCP server?
An MCP server that acts as a central memory system and workflow guardian for AI agents, featuring knowledge graph capabilities and autonomous guidance prompts.
What tools does project-mcp expose?
117 in total: 88 read-only, 24 that write, and 5 that can delete or overwrite (cache_delete, delete_data, delete_entity, delete_observation, delete_relation). Every one is listed on this page with its risk.
Is project-mcp safe to connect to an agent?
No — not without reading the findings first. The audit graded it D (69/100) and found 2 critical or high issues in the source. Each one is listed on this page with the file and line it is on. Separately from the audit: 5 of its tools can destroy data, so scope the token you give it to what you actually need.
What credentials does project-mcp need?
It reads REDIS_PASSWORD from the environment. Give it a token scoped to the least it needs — an agent that can be talked into calling a tool can be talked into calling it with your credentials.
How does project-mcp run?
It speaks stdio and streamable-http, so it runs as a local process your client starts. It is published on npm as ui at 0.0.0.
How current is this page?
The grade is for one exact copy of the source (a3f2bb79be5a), read on 2026-10-14. The repository is watched and re-audited when it changes.
