# How to point an assistant at a brain

Guides for FluctlightDB. The first shows how Claude and Cursor use the MCP server for persistent memory, with the limits the integration page states.

Guides are the steps from the rest of this site, in order. The first one is the MCP server for Claude and Cursor. It does not add a claim the integration page does not already make.

## What a guide will not pretend

If a snippet was not run, the guide says so. If a release note says a fix shipped, the guide says the note says that, and it does not name a version to install. Offline recall is still lexical unless you bring an embedder.
