Products that do what I built simple and efficient local memory system for Claude Code does
I wanted to share a project I have been working on over the past week. It is a simple local memory system that saves your sessions into Markdown files, which can be viewed later. I developed this after using Claude Mem. I really enjoyed working with it, but it was consuming a lot of RAM, and each Claude session was becoming a major resource hog. I also tried other plugins and MCP solutions, but ran into similar issues, either slow performance or concerns about data being sent elsewhere. Because privacy was a big thing for me, I decided to build my own solution that keeps all data local.

I built an MCP server that gives Claude Code long-term memory across sessions, backed by infrastructure you control. Every Claude Code session starts from zero, no memory of previous sessions. This server uses mem0ai as a library and exposes 11 MCP tools for storing, searching, and managing memories. Qdrant handles vector storage, Ollama runs embeddings locally (bge-m3), and Neo4j optionally builds a knowledge graph. Some engineering details HN might find interesting: - Zero-config auth: auto-reads Claude Code's OAT token from ~/.claude/.credentials.json, detects token type (OAT vs…

This is my attempt in building a memory that evolves and persist for claude code. My approach is inspired from Zettelkasten method, memories are atomic, connected and dynamic. Existing memories can evolve based on newer memories. In the background it uses LLM to handle linking and evolution. I have only used it with claude code so far, it works well with me but still early stage, so rough edges likely. I'm planning to extend it to other coding agents as I use several different agents during development. Looking for feedbacks!

Hey HN! My name is Omkar Kovvali and I've been wanting to share my CC sessions with friends / save + access them easily,so I decided to make an MCP server to do so! /share -> Get a link /import -> resume a conversation in your Claude Code All shared sessions are automatically sanitized, removing api keys, tokens, and secrets. Give it a try following the Github/npm instructions linked below - would love feedback! https://github.com/OmkarKovvali/claude-session-share https://www.npmjs.com/package/claude-session-share

Hi HN. Live-Memory is an open-source Claude Code plugin / MCP server that serves as an always up-to-date memory of your codebase. It uses a separate, low-cost, large-context-window model to distill your repo's organization, conventions and general structure. It observes the primary agent's activity and builds an understanding of your repo passively over time. This way, when you start a new Claude Code session, your primary agent queries Live-Memory via one read-only ask_live_memory tool and bootstraps its understanding of the codebase for the particular task at hand, instead of…

I participated in the Nvidia + Vercel 2 hour hackathon in SF tonight, and built something I've wanted, but hadn't tried building. I implemented an MCP Server and VS Code extension to allow Claude Desktop to place breakpoints, step through code, and execute expressions (assuming language support). So you can ask it a question that requires actually stepping through the code and now it can actually do that - check values for you, etc. It's _definitely_ not perfect. Have improvements? Please make a PR!

I thought it would be great to share code snippets without saving them on a server, so I created http://mem.pe It allows you to paste code and save it in your browser's local storage. When you share the URL of the pasted code, other people will connect to it via web sockets. For example, this http://mem.pe/#sge/5 you will be pulling from my browser. I'll keep it open for a while. If you close the web app, your code paste will not be available for anyone to see, until you open the web app again. This is obviously, not suitable for using at forums and other places…

Hi HN, I have been recently geeking on agentic memories, and I believe I finally came up with something that works. I spent the last couple of weeks building a memory[0] for Claude Code that dynamically evolve as you talk with it. I followed a new paradigm inspired from zettelkasten method. Whenever Claude discover something new in the codebase or during your conversation with it, it writes a note about it, link it with related memories, update the related memories accordingly, and store it in chromaDB (this part where it keeps self-evolving based on new inputs). Later when you ask it to…

Hi HN, I'm Rob. Contextify indexes every Claude Code and Codex session on your machine into one local, searchable database. The current session, in either tool, can search all of it: /total-recall in Claude Code, $total-recall in Codex. Demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FvrvRGp4C9M | Mac app: https://contextify.sh (App Store or DMG) | Linux: CLI with a one-line installer, same search. No signup. I split my work between Claude Code and Codex. When I burn through rate limits on one, I switch to the other, and new models keep leapfrogging each other, so the…

I got tired of screenshotting claude code sessions to share with teammates, so I built this. It converts session into beautiful web pages with proper rendering of tool calls. Works by parsing CC's session, extracting steps, then uploading to a simple sharing service. Takes about 2 seconds to generate a shareable link. Live examples: - https://cc.getpochi.com/s/IldMh27j (Research claude-code-share repo) - https://cc.getpochi.com/s/mrqGqgOT (Creating an issue in a GitHub repo)

The main goal of this was to be able to not just run multiple Claude Code sessions at once, but actually manage them and keep track of what I was doing. Sometimes this is multiple attempts on the same task, sometimes I work several tasks at once. Really I was just sick of twiddling my thumbs waiting for the coding agent to finish, and I wanted it to be easy to work on/review/test another change while I waited.

Mix is an open-source, local agent for multimodal claude code. Claude code users will feel at home. - Uses ffmpeg and local apps like blender instead of clunky cloud based editors - All project data is stored plain text and native media files - absolutely no lock-in. - The backend is an HTTP server, meaning that the frontend is just one of possible clients. - - Our SDK with stdio interface (similar to claude code SDK) is launching soon.

Hey HN, I built ShadowGit a while back to automatically commit code every minute to a hidden git repo (.shadowgit.git). Original goal was to easily rollback when AI tools break things. But I discovered something interesting: this minute-by-minute history is perfect context for AI assistants. So I built an MCP server that lets Claude/Cursor query this history using native git commands. The results surprised me: Before: Claude would read my entire codebase repeatedly, burning 15,000+ tokens to debug issues. After: Claude runs `git log --grep="drag"` finds when drag-and-drop worked,…

hey guys, i wanted to show one of my side projects. The idea is a coding harness (independent of models) natively designed for C/C++ developer workflows. I'm a C++ dev and do not find claude code work well with C++ toolchain like gdb and perf. The current version has integrations for gdb, clang-tidy, cppcheck, sanitizers, perf, benchmarking, compile DB navigation, Godbolt, symbolization, binary inspection, and decompilation. It supports Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, and self-hosted models. There are editor workflows for VS Code, CLion, emacs, neovim, and cursor.

Hey HN! I wanted to show this tiny JRPG style hardware companion I built that shows what your Claude Code is doing. When Claude runs a tool, Clawy runs. When it's done, Clawy jumps up in joy. Shake the device and Clawy gets dazed! When Claude needs permission to run something, it shows the command and context like a video game quest scrolling text on screen and you can approve/deny with physical buttons. He runs on a $20 M5StickC Plus 2. Flashing takes 2 minutes from the browser at clawy.lol/flash, no Arduino IDE needed. It uses Claude Code's native hook system over local WiFi and…
