What it does
Most memory tools for AI agents rely on remote vector databases or opaque cloud dashboards. They act as black boxes you can't inspect, debug, or version alongside your code. MemoFS takes a fundamentally different, file-first approach: all agent memory is stored as plain, structured Markdown and JSON directly in your project’s repository undermemofs/. Your agent's memory becomes inspectable, 100% offline-first, and Git-versioned natively with your codebase.
MemoFS Cloud keeps your AI agents' file-first .memofs/ memory in sync across machines and teams with a live dashboard, hosted MCP API, and 1-click rollback.
MemoFS Cloud keeps your agents' file-first .memofs/ memory in sync everywhere you work, gives you a dashboard to see what they remember, and an API to query it from anywhere. Your files stay yours; the engine stays open source. Whether you're using daily AI agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, research tools) or building custom AI agents, keeping memory in sync and accessible is hard. The MemoFS engine runs locally and owns your files; the cloud keeps every machine, teammate, and agent on the same memory runtime — synced byte-for-byte, never locked in. Your workstation, cloud services, and your teammate's agent each remember conflicting context. 247 files here, a stale month-old snapshot…from memofs.dev

I replaced vector databases with Git for AI memory (PoC)2025 · github.com · ▲198Hey 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…

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
