My Claude dreams at night and remembers everything. Better than mempalace.

Back in January I got tired of the same thing everyone complains about now you start a new session with Claude and it has no idea who you are. Every time. From scratch. So I built **IaI-mcp**. A local daemon that captures every conversation, organizes it into three memory tiers, and feeds the right context back when you start a new session. No "remember this." No copy-pasting from old chats. **It just knows**. I've been using it daily with Claude Code since January. Five months. At this point it knows my coding style, my project structures, my preferences things I never explicitly told it to save. It picked them up from conversation and held onto them. It stores everything verbatim, runs neural embeddings locally, encrypts at rest with AES-256, consolidates memory in the background while your machine is idle, and ships every benchmark harness so you can verify the numbers yourself. **Verbatim recall above 99%. Retrieval under 100ms. Session-start cost under 3,000 tokens.** I didn't release it because I was building it for myself. It worked, so I kept using it. But watching the space blow up made me realize maybe other people want this too. So here it is. **Open source. MIT licensed.** Five months of daily use baked in. And before someone asks, **no, this is not another RAG wrapper** that summarizes your last 5 chats. Memory is stored in three tiers: verbatim episodes (write-once, never rewritten), semantic summaries (built during idle consolidation), and procedural profile knobs (learned from behavior over time). Retrieval runs cosine similarity first, then a graph layer reranks by link strength. Two separate passes. Forgetting is reinforcement-weighted. Edges between records decay over time, but the records themselves stay forever. Stuff you recall often gets stronger connections, stuff you don't fades out of easy reach
