brethof-mind gives Claude Code a memory that survives every session — the complete history of what you did, kept on your own machine and searchable by full-text, vector, and graph. No cloud, no API, no summaries to trust.
MIT licence · 100% local · built on SurrealDB · full-text + vector + graph
Claude Code's context gets compacted and truncated — and a summary is just one model's guess at what mattered. brethof-mind doesn't summarize. It keeps the complete transcript of every session and makes it searchable, so recall never depends on what survived a summary or fit in a context window.
brethof-mind keeps two stores, and the pairing is the point.
What the agent writes down on purpose — decisions, architecture, status, your corrections. Dense and high-signal. Your notes.
Every transcript line, captured automatically. Complete and raw. The recording.
Notes are fast but lossy; the recording is the insurance. When the notes missed something, the full history still has it — searchable. Speed of a summary, without ever depending on one.
Stemmed, BM25-ranked search over your notes — so deploying matches deploy. Powered by a SurrealDB full-text analyzer.
Meaning-based recall over an HNSW index. Embeddings computed locally with fastembed — no embedding API, no per-call cost.
Walk relations with SurrealQL — supersede chains, parent links, your own domain edges. Memory that's connected, not just stored.
The memory tools run in any MCP client. Automatic capture & recall come from Claude Code — and Claude Desktop runs Claude Code as its engine, so you get the full experience in both.
Any other MCP client can use the memory tools too — the automatic capture is the Claude Code (and Desktop) piece.
