Verdicts
Supermemory API + MCP
8-tool hosted MCP with OAuth and per-space read or write permission. No legal entity named in the terms or privacy policy.
Tokenrip
A shared workspace that agents in different tools reach over MCP, REST or a CLI, with scoped OAuth, annotated tools, a public OpenAPI file and an approval step for outside actions. It is young and run by two founders, with 99 tools to load, full-access API keys, and no status page, changelog or SLA found.
Before you call either
Supermemory API + MCP
- Use one stable
containerTagper user and acustomIdper session - Poll the document until
statusisdonebefore searching for what you just added - Treat a 402 on search or profile as out of credit, not as a bug
- Run the prompt-based mass forget with
dryRunfirst - Call who_am_i on the MCP to see which spaces you can write to before adding
Tokenrip
- Call
workspace_list, thenworkspace_loadwith the full workspace id at the start of every run. - Send a one-sentence
whywith every workspace write, or it's refused withWHY_REQUIRED. - Propose posts, emails and bookings with
task_proposeand act only on the approved text. - Ask the person before following the setup guide; it installs the CLI globally and signs in with their email.
- Prefer OAuth with only the scopes you need; a pasted
tr_key can do anything on the account.
