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…

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 !

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!

Hey HN! Guestboard (https://guestboard.co) is something we've been working on for the last year or so, and are excited to be sharing it with you all. Guestboard keeps all your big group events under one roof, and includes a growing number of optional widgets to help your event, currently: • A Central message board (forum) • Shared resources (to post important links like GDocs, lineup posters, etc) • Airbnb map • Timeline/Schedule • Interactive checklist (my favorite) • Parter Deals (so you can save money on goods and services related to your specific event type) Important…

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.

An unattended laptop that's still logged in is usually my opportunity to play the looping laughing Gandalf video on their machine. The other day I allegedly took it a step further by setting a cronjob to run a `say hello friend` command every ~28 minutes. This got me thinking that I should probably stop before I get fired... but also if there's an easier way to do this where I don't have to remember the cron syntax, but also give them an easy way to remove it. So I made Stay Safe – a fun script that's quick to install, quick to remove, and reminds colleagues of the importance of not letting…

Recall Memory is a free Sandboxed Mac App which let's you scroll through time and allows you to "Recall" what you were doing earlier. Recall works by capturing the active window every second and only saves screenshots with significant changes. Making it easy to scroll through what you were doing earlier. All data is processed and always stored locally.

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…

devnexus is an open-source cli that gives agents persistent shared memory across repos, sessions, and engineers. It maps out dependencies and relations at the function level, builds a code graph, and writes it into a shared Obsidian vault that every agent reads before writing code. Past decisions are also linked directly to the code they touched, so no one goes down the same dead end twice. Still building it out but I would love to hear any thoughts/feedback

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…

Hi HN! Flocklist.app is a minimalist, private dependency tracker. I mostly just built this for myself, since I would sit down to work, look at my to-do list, and I couldn't do 2/3 of the tasks. None of the solutions to this really cut it, either because they are a little clunky or are enterprise scale (like Jira, Linear, you know the rest). I figure I can't be the only one with this problem, so I built this free app to fix it. (It also doesn’t store tasks in the cloud.) I would love to hear any feedback you have!
