​
Prerequisites

  • Kiro (AWS coding assistant) installed
  • CORE account (sign up at core.heysol.ai)

​
Step 1: Configure CORE MCP Server

Add the following in Kiro → MCP Servers: 
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "core-memory": {
      "url": "https://core.heysol.ai/api/v1/mcp?source=Kiro",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

​
Step 2: Generate API Key

  1. Log in to your CORE dashboard at core.heysol.ai
  2. Navigate to Settings → API Key
  3. Click Generate new key
  4. Name it “kiro”
  5. Copy the generated API key
  6. Replace YOUR_API_KEY in the configuration above with your actual API key

​
Step 3: Verify Connection

Test your setup to ensure everything is working correctly:
  1. Test memory search: Ask Kiro: Can you search my memory for [something you've previously stored]?
  2. Check connection status: Verify that core-memory appears in your MCP servers list
  3. Test operations: Ask Kiro to store and retrieve information across sessions

​
Troubleshooting

Connection Issues:
  • Verify your API key is correct and not expired
  • Ensure the configuration is properly formatted
  • Restart Kiro after configuration changes
  • Check that you’re logged into your CORE account
