Best for
  • Users of Gemini CLI, Gemini Code Assist, or Claude Code who want to query Google Analytics data in natural language
  • Analysts with a Google Cloud project and Google Analytics access who can configure ADC credentials
  • Teams that prefer running the server locally and managing their own credentials
  • Individuals or teams who prioritise privacy and offline operation and do not want data leaving the machine
  • Users who share memory across multiple MCP clients such as Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Hermes Agent, OpenClaw, Cursor, Codex and Gemini CLI
  • Scenarios that need encrypted storage, a hash-chained audit log and verifiable vault migration
  • Users who want low-latency recall, a bundled embedding model and no extra LLM calls inside the memory layer
Not for
  • Users without Google Analytics access or the ability to configure Google Cloud credentials
  • Users looking for a fully managed, zero-configuration service
  • Scenarios that need to write to or modify Google Analytics configuration (the credential scope is read-only)
  • Production scenarios with strict stability requirements, given the experimental status
  • Users who need cloud multi-device sync or a hosted team memory service; moving between machines means locking the vault and copying the file
  • Users who expect the server itself to run an LLM that extracts facts and decides what to remember; Compartment explicitly keeps no LLM inside and leaves that to the host model
  • Users who cannot keep a passphrase safe or who need a recovery path if it is lost, since Compartment never generates a password, seed or recovery phrase
  • Deployments that require network transports such as SSE or streamable-http; this server is stdio only and opens no ports
Required permissions
  • Application Default Credentials for a user with access to the target Google Analytics accounts or properties
  • Google Analytics read-only scope https://www.googleapis.com/auth/analytics.readonly
  • Google Analytics Admin API and Google Analytics Data API enabled in the Google Cloud project
  • Optional Google Cloud project ID (GOOGLE_PROJECT_ID) for quota and billing attribution
  • Read and write the vault file under the user's home directory, by default ~/.compartment/memory.vault, and its sibling settings file
  • Access the session directory holding the unlock credential (configurable with COMPARTMENT_SESSION_DIR), which also carries the shared embedding process's Unix socket
  • Optionally use the macOS keychain (compartment unlock --keychain is an explicit opt-in, and it survives reboots)
  • Write or merge an mcpServers entry into each MCP client's own configuration file, taking a byte-exact backup first
  • Install a PostToolUse hook for Claude Code that captures memory files the agent writes
  • Serve a read-only dashboard on 127.0.0.1 behind a one-time random URL token
Risks and side effects
  • The server is experimental, so behavior and interfaces may change
  • Credentials are stored locally as a JSON file referenced by an environment variable; if exposed, Google Analytics data could be read
  • Queries are generated by an LLM and may produce inaccurate or unintended reporting requests
  • Network access to the Google Analytics APIs is required
  • A leaked passphrase means the encrypted content can be decrypted; Compartment generates no recovery phrase and cannot recover a lost passphrase
  • Enabling the memory_unlock tool places the passphrase in the model's context, which is why it is off by default
  • If a 2FA keyfile is lost, for example a USB stick, the vault cannot be opened even with the passphrase
  • `export --plaintext` writes the vault as unencrypted JSONL, so that file must be handled carefully
  • Memory content can come from untrusted sources; recall wraps memories with a notice that they are stored data and content can be marked quarantined, but the host agent must still treat memory as data to limit prompt-injection risk
  • The capture hook and client integration write into the user's own settings files, although the implementation backs up and merges rather than replacing
