AI product Open source
Claude-Mem is an open-source persistent-memory plugin and service for coding agents. It captures agent activity through lifecycle hooks, stores sessions, observations, and summaries in SQLite, and uses hybrid full-text and Chroma vector search to retrieve relevant context across sessions.
Its MCP search workflow uses progressive disclosure: the agent first searches a compact index, then reviews a timeline, and finally fetches full observations for selected result IDs. A local worker service, managed by Bun, provides the HTTP API, search endpoints, and web viewer; the project also supports integrations with Claude Code and other listed agent environments, configurable context injection, private-content exclusion tags, and optional cloud synchronization.
The repository states that it is distributed under the Apache License 2.0 and requires Node.js 20 or later, with Bun, uv, and SQLite used by the runtime. It can be installed through its npx installer or Claude Code's plugin marketplace.

Provides persistent memory across coding-agent sessions by compressing tool usage into semantic summaries in local SQLite and vector stores, then injecting relevant memories through MCP search tools.
