Getting startedAI coding assistants

AI coding assistants

AI coding agents such as Claude Code, Cursor and Codex don’t know Memgraph well by default. Give them Memgraph-specific knowledge and access to the current docs, so they write correct Cypher and follow Memgraph’s recommended practices.

In Claude Code or Codex, install the Memgraph plugin: it adds the Agent Skills and both MCP servers in one step. With other agents, paste the prompt from Start with your coding agent.

Choose what to give your agent

You can combine these, depending on what the agent needs:

Your agent needs toUse

Remember what it did in earlier sessionsAI memory, which records your agent’s sessions in Memgraph

Machine-readable docs

Agents can also read the docs without installing anything: every page has a Markdown version, and llms.txt files list them by section. See llms.txt and Markdown pages for the URLs and how to add them to your agent’s instructions.
