Products that do what OpenMemory – Make your MCP clients more context-aware does
Hey HN, we’re launching OpenMemory (https://github.com/mem0ai/mem0/tree/main/openmemory), an open source tool that lets you run a personal, portable memory layer for LLMs. Fully self-hosted and under your control. It uses standard MCP protocol and plugs into any MCP client (like Cursor, Windsurf, Claude, etc.) over Server-Sent Events (SSE). https://mem0.ai/blog/how-to-make-your-clients-more-context-a... is a complete tutorial that shows how to set it up locally, the underlying components involved, complete overview of architecture and…

Hi HN, I'm Gzuuus, the creator of ContextVM this is my first post here, hope you find it interesting! I started building ContextVM some months ago, this is an open protocol that runs the Model Context Protocol (MCP) over Nostr. In practice, it’s a transport for MCP that lets you expose remote servers without needing a domain, inbound ports, or OAuth, clients, and servers only need an outbound internet connection. The problem I ran into: When deploying a remote MCP server you can feel the pain. You usually need a domain name, a static IP, TLS certificates, port forwarding, and some way to…

It's an biological inspired decay system for our memories with extended support of temporal reasoning. Created a CLI command to infer knowledge from the context stored in memory system without any token utilization or llm call. It comes with a memory dashboard to monitor and manage your memories it can be extended as audit trail for agents as well !

Over the past couple weeks, l've been really immersed in learning about MCP, a new protocol for equipping any LLM with a set of tools that can run on your own machine or a remote server you control and give all kinds of superpowers to Al agents to do things like search, etc. As part of that research, l've already built one very fleshed-out and useful MCP server that l've shared here (I've added much more to it recently though!), the LLM Gateway MCP Server, which lets you use a big model to delegate to a cheaper model (and many more things in addition to that, like running automated…

Anthropic released the Model Context Protocol a couple weeks ago - https://www.anthropic.com/news/model-context-protocol. They have official sdks for python and typescript but nothing for go, so I wrote one! The main goal is to provide a low boilerplate sdk to write MCP servers, you can spin up a server which can give an LLM access to weather forecasts like this: https://github.com/metoro-io/mcp-golang/blob/main/examples/g... . Using it here: https://youtu.be/xaMkMl_R-0A The library handles generating all the MCP…

CoreMem lets you build collections of context, called a mem, and share it with any AI agent via URL, a Chrome extension, MCP, Cursor/VS Code plugins, a skill, and more. Instead of re-explaining your project or goal when you switch agents or start new sessions, CoreMem keeps your context centrally organized so that any AI tool can read it. This originally started as a CLI I built that kept pieces of context (Project A/B/C details, my writing style, preferred tech stacks, coding style, etc) in a SQLite database. I could instruct various agents to “use my `coremem` CLI to…

So I've been building ClawMem, an open-source context engine that gives AI coding agents persistent memory across sessions. It works with Claude Code (hooks + MCP) and OpenClaw (ContextEngine plugin + REST API), and both can share the same SQLite vault, so your CLI agent and your voice/chat agent build on the same memory without syncing anything. The retrieval architecture is a Frankenstein, which is pretty much always my process. I pulled the best parts from recent projects and research and stitched them together: [QMD](https://github.com/tobi/qmd) for the…

I’d like to use LLMs for remembering all kinds of things: fitness, to-do lists, contacts, bug reports, research links, whatever. But there is no way to do that now. For example, if I find a great coding tutorial in chat, or tell it how much I ran yesterday, it forgets that when I close the chat. Even if I keep the chat history, I still need to scour through lots of messages to find the data I want. Ideally, Claude would remember all this, and I’d be able to find it later with ease. This is what my team built. It is a collaborative database you add to any LLM that supports MCP. (Claude Code,…

Built a simple web app that tells you which open-source LLMs will work on your hardware. It auto-detects your specs, shows compatible models from Hugging Face, gives realistic performance estimates (tokens/sec), and recommends quantization settings. You can also manually input specs to see "what if I upgraded my RAM?" Made this after wasting time downloading giant models only to find they crawled on my hardware. Hope it saves you some frustration!

Over this past month I had the idea to build a 100% open-source MIT-licensed tool to simplify sharing code with LLMs, without the vendor lock-in you get from most SDKs. Right now, it’s way too hard to export your data or work freely with models like o1 PRO or Grok 3, especially since they don’t even have API access. So I built OpenRepoPrompt, an open-source tool from wildberry-source that serializes files and folders into XML for LLMs. I coded/designed from 12PM -> 11PM on Saturday and 8AM -> 11PM on Sunday. There are still tons of features missing (I'm working on better file filtering…

Hello HN, I built this because I wanted to give Claude Desktop access to my Notion workspace without running a flaky local Python script via stdio. This is a Node.js/Express implementation of the Model Context Protocol (MCP) that uses SSE (Server-Sent Events) for transport. It’s designed to be stateless and deployable as a container (I'm hosting it on Apify, but it works anywhere with Node). The Stack: TypeScript + Express @modelcontextprotocol/sdk Zod for input validation Bearer Auth for security (since it exposes an HTTP endpoint) Capabilities: It allows the LLM to search pages,…

Hi HN, for about a year now I've been experimenting with AI agents and building my own home ecosystem; from the start I set out with the idea of an agent that behaves like a member of the family, not as a personal agent, and this made me clash very early first with OpenClaw's builtin memory, then I tested dozens of memory plugins without ever finding one that fit my purpose, so like any good builder I made my own. First on OpenClaw, as a plugin, then the idea matured and since the beginning of this year the memory plugin has evolved into an agent agnostic MCP server. It has been running my…

Hey HN! I’m Gui from deco (decocms.com). We’ve been using this tool internally as the foundation for a few customer AI platforms, and today we’re open-sourcing it as MCP Mesh. MCP is quickly becoming the standard for agentic systems, but… once you go past a couple servers it turns into the same problems for every team: - M×N config sprawl (every client wired to every server, each with its own JSON + ports + retries) - Token + tool bloat (dumping tool definitions into every prompt doesn’t scale) - Credentials + blast radius (tokens scattered across clients, hard to audit, hard to revoke) - No…

I’ve been building and using agents heavily lately. The Model Context Protocol ecosystem is growing insanely fast, but discovering and configuring new tools is still highly manual. Every time I needed to connect an agent to a new service, I had to browse registries, figure out the transport type, identify required env vars, and manually update "mcp.json" files. So I built MCPfinder. It aggregates servers from the official MCP registry, Glama, and Smithery (around 25,000 combined entries) into a deduplicated, ranked catalog. But the real twist is the DX: MCPfinder is itself an MCP server :D…

I built MCPlexor to solve a token waste problem I kept running into with MCP-based agents. The Problem: MCP (Model Context Protocol) is great for giving LLMs access to external tools. But if you connect multiple servers (GitHub, Linear, Postgres, Slack), you end up with 40-50k tokens of tool definitions injected into every request – before the agent even does anything. On a 200k context model, that's 25% gone. On smaller models, it's worse. And most runs only use 1-2 tools. The Solution: MCPlexor sits between your agent and your MCP servers. Instead of loading all tool definitions upfront:…

Code Index MCP is an MCP server that indexes codebases and provides search capabilities to LLMs. Supports 50+ file types with automatic indexing, regex/fuzzy search, code analysis, and real-time file monitoring. LLMs can search your entire project, find files with glob patterns, analyze code structure (functions, classes, imports), and get automatic updates when files change. Eliminates the need to manually copy files or explain project structure to overcome context limits. Built with Python using the Model Context Protocol. Uses pluggable search backends…

After seeing a cool demo of a hack on Twitter, I built a cross platform version of it that works well and uses streaming. From anywhere on Mac and Linux, trigger Ollama and optionally feed it your clipboard. I built it yesterday and it's already very useful to me. I'm pretty excited about it and wanted to share!
