Your AI Memory Should Be Markdown Files
Episode 4832
Published 1 month, 2 weeks ago
Description
Daniel and Herman explore the case for portable, inspectable AI memory built on Markdown files and Git. They diagnose why agent-building platforms overshoot with vector databases and why ChatGPT and Claude keep memory locked in walled gardens. Then they lay out exactly how to build a local-first, two-tier memory system — shared persistent preferences plus project-specific context — using nothing but folders, text files, and a lightweight frontend. If you've ever wished you could grep your AI's memory, this one's for you.
