PMB – local-first memory for AI coding agents over MCP

How it works: - Storage uses one SQLite database file, plus a local LanceDB index of vectors. No need for a server, cloud services, or any API keys. - Retrieval is a hybrid approach using BM25 (rank-bm25) and vector-based search (sentence-transformers) combined with a co-occurrence graph of entities, using reciprocal rank fusion. The idea is to find the right memory, not the closest one. - It plugs into the agent's lifecycle via MCP: before the agent responds, relevant memories are added to its input; after each turn, decisions and new learnings are automatically recorded. No need to…

What it does

In the maker’s words, at launch

How it works: - Storage uses one SQLite database file, plus a local LanceDB index of vectors. No need for a server, cloud services, or any API keys. - Retrieval is a hybrid approach using BM25 (rank-bm25) and vector-based search (sentence-transformers) combined with a co-occurrence graph of entities, using reciprocal rank fusion. The idea is to find the right memory, not the closest one. - It plugs into the agent's lifecycle via MCP: before the agent responds, relevant memories are added to its input; after each turn, decisions and new learnings are automatically recorded. No need to manually remember "remember this". - It maintains a dictionary for each project which builds itself based on your memories, which improves recall performance for the project-specific vocabulary. - It can run fully offline, pointing to a locally installed Ollama model and even the optional large language model features such as consolidation, de-duplication, and chatting about your memories stays on your machine. Embedding is done locally by default.

  • I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

  • Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…

    Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!
