- Who it helps
- Developers investigating memory for personal or project assistants.
- Availability
- Public Apache 2.0 version 0.1.0 alpha using SQLite. Model-provider calls can add costs; the Studio requires a repository checkout.
Separate extraction from resolution
A model proposes typed memory operations, and a deterministic resolver applies them. Each current fact occupies a slot. Superseded values stay in history, and a correction can restore an older value. The context reports its sequence and whether pending work remains.
Read the benchmark boundary
The headline 101-conversation test uses a rule-based FakeExtractor. It checks the memory machinery under those fixtures; it does not establish reliable extraction from arbitrary conversations by a hosted model.

Where the evidence stops
README checked; no installation, model extraction or persistence test was executed. Alpha software and model-generated operations need evaluation.

Dated source checks and published explanations. An observation date can differ from the original release date.
- · Added to Current
TenseMem stores an assistant’s current facts alongside an append-only history. Corrections can replace a value while retaining the evidence for earlier versions.
