Memory for coding agents that reviews itself.

drift, mine and lessons on the bundled example data · everything runs locally

Try it · What it answers · Connect your agent · How it works · vs. alternatives

Your agents write everything down. Nobody reads it back.

Every memory tool for coding agents helps them remember more. None of them mention that half of what they remember expired in July. memory-boost keeps a plain-markdown memory your agents read and write over MCP, and then does the unglamorous part: it audits that memory and your own sessions, and tells you what drifted. Politely, with numbers.

Think of it as a code review for what your agents remember and a fitness tracker for how you work with them. Mostly the fitness tracker: mine told me my most-failed command was cd. Sixty-nine times.

What it answers

Try it in 30 seconds

No install needed; the wiki lands in ~/.local/share/memory-boost:

uvx memory-boost init --example   # sample wiki with five kinds of rot + four synthetic transcripts
uvx memory-boost drift            # what in that memory is stale, orphaned or never written down
uvx memory-boost mine             # now on your real ~/.claude/projects: aggregates only

To keep it in Claude Code, install the plugin. It brings the MCP server, the session-start brief and the skills in one step; it only needs uv on your PATH.

/plugin marketplace add arnaugonzalez/memory-boost
/plugin install memory-boost@memory-boost

Other agents, or the CLI on its own: uv tool install memory-boost (or pipx install memory-boost).

On a real machine

Five weeks of the author's own daily use: 29 decisions, 24 projects, 657 Claude Code transcripts. Output as produced; only project and file names are replaced.
