fossel - Local MCP memory server for persistent AI context repos

by•
Fossel is a local MCP memory server for open-source contributors. It gives AI tools like Cursor and Claude Desktop persistent, repo-aware memory — storing conventions, bug fixes, reviewer patterns, and decisions in a local SQLite database. Tools included: update_memory, pin_memory, unpin_memory, and summarize_repo_context. No cloud. No account. Just run npx -y fossel init and you're live in 30s.

I built Fossel because I kept losing context between AI coding sessions — every new chat in Cursor or Claude Desktop started from zero. Fossel solves this by giving your AI a persistent, local memory tied to each repo. The process evolved a lot: started with just save/search, then realized contributors need to update, pin, and summarize their memory to actually trust it. Would love to hear how you use it — drop a comment below! 🚀

@vignesh_g10 The evolution from save/search to collaborative memory management is smart — that's where the real value clicks for teams. The pinning and summarization layer especially makes sense since AI context quality depends on signal-to-noise ratio. Curious if you're seeing use cases beyond coding where teams want persistent context repos.
