AI Analysis
●●●BangerBig BrainCozy
Git repo as versioned agent memory — no database, just markdown files.
Strengths
- •Leverages existing AGENTS.md convention agents already read — zero integration work
- •Clean separation: knowledge/ for mutable state, notes/ for append-only session logs
- •Works with any agent framework — OpenCode, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf
Weaknesses
- •Git-based storage means no real-time sync across multiple machines without pushing
- •No built-in conflict resolution if multiple agents modify the same knowledge file
