A-MEM – Memory for Claude Code that links and evolves on its own

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…

A-MEM is a self-evolving memory system for coding agents. Unlike simple vector stores, A-MEM automatically organizes knowledge into a Zettelkasten-style graph with dynamic relationships. Memories don't just get stored—they evolve and connect over time. Currently tested with Claude Code . Support for other MCP-compatible agents is planned. pip install a-mem Add to Claude Code claude mcp add a-mem -s user -- a-mem-mcp \ -e LLM_BACKEND=openai \ -e LLM_MODEL=gpt-4o-mini \ -e OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-... That's it! A session-start hook installs automatically to remind Claude to use memory. Note: Memory is stored per-project in ./chroma_db . For global memory across all projects, see Memory Scope .…from github.com

    I got tired of Claude Code forgetting all my context every time I open a new session: set-up decisions, how I like my margins, decision history. etc. We built a shared memory layer you can drop in as a Claude Code Skill. It’s basically a tiny memory DB with recall that remembers your sessions. Not magic. Not AGI. Just state. Install in Claude Code: /plugin marketplace add https://github.com/mutable-state-inc/ensue-skill /plugin install ensue-memory # restart Claude Code What it does: (1) persists context between sessions (2) semantic & temportal search (not just…

    Recall: Give Claude memory with Redis-backed persistent context2025 · npmjs.com · ▲171

    Hey HN! I'm José, and I built Recall to solve a problem that was driving me crazy. The Problem: I use Claude for coding daily, but every conversation starts from scratch. I'd explain my architecture, coding standards, past decisions... then hit the context limit and lose everything. Next session? Start over. The Solution: Recall is an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that gives Claude persistent memory using Redis + semantic search. Think of it as long-term memory that survives context limits and session restarts. How it works: - Claude stores important context as "memories" during…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

    Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents. I didn't write a single line of code. Of course no-code doesn't mean no-engineering. This project took a lot more manual labor than I'd hoped! I wrote a deep dive on the workflow and some thoughts about the future of AI coding and creativity: http://cannoneyed.com/projects/isometric-nyc
