    Most AI agents forget everything between sessions. We built DeltaMemory to fix that. It's a cognitive memory layer that gives agents persistent recall, automatic fact extraction, and temporal reasoning — via a single SDK call. Key numbers: - 89% accuracy on LoCoMo long-term conversation benchmark - 50ms p50 retrieval latency - 97% cost reduction vs raw token re-processing Open source SDKs, works with any LLM stack. Currently in early access. Happy to answer questions about the architecture, benchmark methodology, or how we handle knowledge graphs.

    Hey HN! I built Retain as the evolution of claude-reflect (github.com/BayramAnnakov/claude-reflect). The original problem: I use Claude Code/Codex daily for coding, plus claude.ai and ChatGPT occasionally. Every conversation contains decisions, corrections, and patterns I forget existed weeks later. I kept re-explaining the same preferences. claude-reflect was a CLI tool that extracted learnings from Claude Code sessions. Retain takes this further with a native macOS app that: - Aggregates conversations from Claude Code, claude.ai, ChatGPT, and Codex CLI - Instant full-text…

    Engram▲3

    Engram gives AI coding agents persistent memory across sessions. 2,500 npm installs in the first five days. The problem: every Claude Code or Cursor session starts from zero. You re-explain your architecture, conventions, past decisions. CLAUDE.md helps but it's manual and doesn't scale. Engram runs as a native MCP server. One command to install, SQLite backend, no infrastructure. Three tiers of memory: Explicit: things you tell it to remember Implicit: behavioral patterns extracted from how you work (low confidence, reinforced over time) Synthesized: meta-observations generated during…

    Tired of AI coding tools that forget everything between sessions? Every time I open a new chat with Claude or fire up Copilot, I'm back to square one explaining my codebase structure. So I built something to fix this. It's called In Memoria. Its an MCP server that gives AI tools persistent memory. Instead of starting fresh every conversation, the AI remembers your coding patterns, architectural decisions, and all the context you've built up. The setup is dead simple: `npx in-memoria server` then connect your AI tool. No accounts, no data leaves your machine. Under the hood it's TypeScript +…

    Hey HN! I'm Arindam, part of the team behind Memori (https://memori.gibsonai.com/). Memori adds a stateful memory engine to AI agents, enabling them to stay consistent, recall past work, and improve over time. With Memori, agents don’t lose track of multi-step workflows, repeat tool calls, or forget user preferences. Instead, they build up human-like memory that makes them more reliable and efficient across sessions. We’ve also put together demo apps (a personal diary assistant, a research agent, and a travel planner) so you can see memory in action. Current LLMs are stateless…

    We built CodeYam Memory because Claude Code kept making the same mistakes on our codebase. Our claude.md files quickly got stale and maintaining by hand or with Claude wasn’t sufficient. While digging into this we found that Claude has a native rules system that allowed us to target specific parts of our repo with path matching. This was ideal for our use case but trying to manage these rules by hand was already not working and would be even harder with more granular, targeted rules. CodeYam Memory uses a background agent to review your coding session transcripts, identifies confusion…
