I shipped a wiki layer for AI agents that uses markdown + git as the source of truth, with a bleve (BM25) + SQLite index on top. No vector or graph db yet. It runs locally in ~/.wuphf/wiki/ and you can git clone it out if you want to take your knowledge with you. The shape is the one Karpathy has been circling for a while: an LLM-native knowledge substrate that agents both read from and write into, so context compounds across sessions rather than getting re-pasted every morning. Most implementations of that idea land on Postgres, pgvector, Neo4j, Kafka, and a dashboard. I…

Hey HN! I built a proof-of-concept for AI memory using Git instead of vector databases. The insight: Git already solved versioned document management. Why are we building complex vector stores when we could just use markdown files with Git's built-in diff/blame/history? How it works: Memories stored as markdown files in a Git repo Each conversation = one commit git diff shows how understanding evolves over time BM25 for search (no embeddings needed) LLMs generate search queries from conversation context Example: Ask "how has my project evolved?" and it uses git diff to show actual…

hi guys. been working on something i think is fundamentally missing in today's workflow with ai agents. vcs. i find myself struggling with questions that agents can't answer like "why did you do it?", "when did u delete this folder? why?", etc. or trying to /rewind (after a /compact...) or basically `bisect` to find when and why something was done by the agent in the current / previous session. just like git did for code, i think we are the same core capabilities with ai agents so... i developed an open source solution for that (currently supporting claude code) would love to…

Coding agents don't have long-term memory. But you do have months of full-fidelity agent transcripts stored on your machine. A simple solution that goes a long way: ingest those transcripts and logs into a structured SQLite database, then search them with ranked text match. Everything is fully local and doesn't require anything fancy like a graph database or hosted memory service. This is the idea behind ctx, a Rust CLI that handles the ingestion and searching. We give our agents a skill that tells them to reference past sessions before working in an area. Usually we do this through an…

An agent that remembers across sessions can keep its memory as curated markdown files, as an auto-mined structured store, or as trained experience.

I was frustrated that memory is usually tied to a specific tool. They’re useful inside one session but I have to re-explain the same things when I switch tools or sessions. Furthermore, most agents' memory systems just append to a markdown file and dump the whole thing into context. Eventually, it's full of irrelevant information that wastes tokens. So I built this local memory layer that unifies memory across agents. Instead of a flat file, it builds a structured knowledge graph of "memory notes" inspired by the paper "A-MEM: Agentic Memory for LLM Agents"…

Connect Itsuki once with one key. It extracts structured memories from any of 26 connected tools — assistants, agents, workflows — links each to the words it came from, and serves them back across all the rest.

I was frustrated with not being able to know why the code written by my colleague agents was in the codebase, so I build a tool to version agent trace along code in git.
