Agent Memory MCP Server
Local, git-native project memory for AI coding agents. One MCP call in, structured memory updates out - current task state, decisions, conventions, pitfalls, per-module facts. Branch-aware. Secret-safe. Byte-preserving.
People who work with developer tools and memory and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Go.
