alt Hacker NewsI clicked this thinking “oh, cool, someone finally made a portable version of the Claude.ai* memory system!” Spoiler, no, it’s not it at all, it’s just a “store”/“remember” memory system… as opposed to the Claude.ai memory system, where it doesn’t make the model actively have to write memories on its own, but rather has a model in the background go through your chat history and generate a summary from it.
I’ve found the latter approach to work much, much better than simple “store”/“remember” systems.
So, it just feels misleading to say this can do what Claude.ai’s can do…
(I’ve been looking for a memory system that works the same for a while, so that I can switch away from Claude.ai to something else like LibreChat, but I just haven’t found any. Might be the only thing keeping me on Claude at this point.)

*I say Claude.ai because that’s specifically what has the system; Claude Code doesn’t have this system

I agree. silent agent doing agentic things async is what would be helpful, not requiring a modification to the main prompt
That's an interesting concept. So it's like if you're an agent chatting with a user, you have an army of assistants who overhear the conversation and record important facts, or search relevant facts on some database and decide on the fly when to interrupt you with "this memory X looks relevant". Sounds easy enough if tokens were free, but an interesting problem to do it efficiently.
