counterparts.ai

A free, open-source, fully local memory system for Claude modeled after human memory. It lets older memories fade so nothing gets stale, 'dreams' to merge similar memories, updates memories when facts change, and has prospective memory that can remind you of things in the future. Because it acts as Claude's own memory, it develops a self-identity and gets to know the user over time, strengthening or fading habits automatically (e.g., a ping-pong shortcut). It complements the built-in memory file rather than replacing it, requires no API keys, and avoids stale files and hundreds of markdown docs.

    “For last several months I've been building https://counterparts.ai, memory for claude modeled after human memory. It forgets older memories so things never get stale, it dreams to merge similar ones, it updates memories when facts change, it has prospective memory to remind you in the future, etc.”
