Version-controlled AI memory for Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, and Copilot Chat.

Prerequisites

Install memgit and start the daemon:

pip install memgit
memgit init
memgit daemon start

The extension connects to the daemon at localhost:7474.

Features

  • Memory Explorer — sidebar tree showing your memories grouped by priority
  • History — checkpoint log with timestamps and diff counts
  • Search — fuzzy keyword search over all memories (Cmd+Shift+Pmemgit: Search)
  • Save — write a new memory from any editor (Cmd+Shift+Pmemgit: Save Memory)
  • Cursor/Windsurf injection — auto-injects your top memories into .cursorrules / .windsurfrules
  • Copilot/Cursor AI tools — registers memgit_write, memgit_query, memgit_forget as LM tools

Getting started

  1. Install the extension from the VS Code Marketplace
  2. pip install memgit && memgit init
  3. memgit daemon start (runs in a terminal)
  4. Open a project — the AI Memory sidebar appears
