What the publisher says
From the LoreConvo repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub
LoreConvo v0.10.12
Your memory follows your identity, not your tool — with your consent.
LoreConvo is the only AI memory that carries your context across Claude Code, Cowork, Codex, Cursor, and Hermes Agent. One install, one memory, everywhere you code.
Install directly from Claude Code's plugin marketplace, or via PyPI: uvx loreconvo
Why LoreConvo?
Works wherever you work
LoreConvo works across Claude Code, Cowork, Cursor, Codex, and Hermes -- the same memory layer, no matter which client you reach for. When you switch mid-project, your context travels with you automatically.
Most tools wall off memory by machine or workspace. LoreConvo stores everything locally in a SQLite database you own, and surfaces it wherever you are. Capture happens two ways: explicitly via the save tools, or automatically at session end if you install the optional hooks. Either way, you can inspect, edit, or delete any memory at any time.
You control what gets saved
LoreConvo puts you in control: automatic capture only runs if you choose to install the session hooks, every save is inspectable, and you can delete any memory at any time.
Every memory shows you exactly where it came from — which surface captured it, when, what project context it belongs to, and which skill generated it. No mystery. Full provenance.
Your memory stays on your machine
LoreConvo stores everything in a SQLite database on your own machine. Your data stays local unless you explicitly enable the optional AI summarization feature (Pro, off by default), which sends a transcript excerpt to the Anthropic API using your own key. No cloud accounts. No vendor with access to your session history.
Your sessions live in ~/.loreconvo/sessions.db -- a file you own, can back up, and can delete whenever you want.
Structured memory, not raw transcripts
LoreConvo captures two types of memory for each session:
- Episodic memory: what happened -- summaries, artifacts created, open questions left behind
- Semantic memory: what was decided -- stable conclusions about the project that persist across sessions
Together these give Claude a structured, searchable record of your project's history, not just a pile of chat transcripts.
Recall Benchmark
LoreConvo's FTS5 search is benchmarked against a 60-session synthetic corpus (6 topic areas, 36 labeled queries).
Compound token expansion (camelCase / snakecase query preprocessing) lifts Recall@5 by +35.7 pp on queries using technical identifiers like autoSave, pipelinetracker, and getcontextfor.

Quick Start
One command to install:
bash install.shThis creates a virtual environment, installs dependencies, and verifies everything works. No system Python changes, no manual pip commands.
Using the Claude Agent SDK directly? git clone the public repo and point the SDK's local-directory plugin loader at it -- the repo root is a self-contained plugin directory (.claude-plugin/plugin.json + .mcp.json). No separate SDK-installable bundle exists or is needed.
Using LoreConvo
Claude Code (Terminal)
Start a session with the plugin loaded:
claude --plugin-dir /path/to/loreconvoOr load it inside an existing session:
/plugin add /path/to/loreconvoReplace /path/to/loreconvo with wherever you saved the source folder.
After making code changes, use /reload-plugins to refresh without restarting.
Once loaded, Claude has access to all 39 LoreConvo MCP tools automatically. Ask Claude to "save this session" or "recall what we discussed about X" and it will use the tools on its own.
Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.
Nothing above is checked by us. What we check is on the safety report.
