GuyMannDude / mnemo-cortex
Open-source cognitive coprocessor with active memory for AI agents — persistent recall, semantic search, overnight dreaming, verified facts, encrypted USB sync. MCP server; works with Claude, ChatGPT, and any local LLM. Built by one maker and his agents.
Why this job: says: memory for ai; topics: agent-memory, ai-memory, memory
What it does
- SQLite + FTS5 storage. Single database file. Full-text search. Zero dependencies beyond Python stdlib.
- Context frontier with active compaction. Rolling window of messages + summaries. 80% token compression while preserving perfect recall.
- DAG-based summary lineage. Every summary tracks its source messages via a directed acyclic graph. Expand any summary back to verbatim source.
- Verbatim replay mode. Compressed by default, original messages on demand.
- OpenClaw session watcher daemon. Tails JSONL session files and ingests new messages every 2 seconds.
Get started
# Defaults are sensible; only edit robot.install if you want to change them
./robot-install.sh You need: Python 3.11+ — for the server; Ollama *(recommended)* — local reasoning + embedding models, free, fully private. The init wizard also accepts OpenAI / Google / Anthropic / OpenRouter API keys if you'd rather use a cloud model.; Node.js 18+ *(only when running an MCP-bridge integration: Claude Desktop, LM Studio, OpenClaw, etc.)*
