# ๐ง openmymemo - Your AI memory, owned locally
[](https://github.com/Harshil-fx/openmymemo/releases)
openmymemo gives your AI tools a memory folder that lives on your computer and belongs to you. Claude, Codex, Cursor, and any MCP app can share the same memory, while you keep full visibility into every change and can undo anything you do not want.
Instead of hiding your AI memory inside a service you cannot inspect, openmymemo keeps it in a local folder made of readable Markdown files. You can open that folder, read it, back it up, organize it, or move it. Your AI apps get useful memory, and you stay in control.
## ๐ What Is openmymemo?
openmymemo is a local-first AI memory application for Windows. It creates and manages a memory folder on your computer. AI apps that support MCP can connect to openmymemo and use that shared memory.
In everyday terms:
- Your AI memory is stored as files in a folder you own.
- Multiple AI apps can use the same memory instead of starting from scratch each time.
- You can see what changed, when it changed, and undo changes you do not like.
- Your memory stays local, which is better for privacy and personal control.
- The files are Markdown, so they are easy to read and work with in many tools, including Obsidian and plain text editors.
## ๐ Why You Will Like It
Most AI memory feels invisible. You cannot easily tell what the AI remembered, where it stored that information, or how to remove it. openmymemo changes that by making memory a normal folder on your PC.
You get:
- Ownership: the memory folder is yours.
- Visibility: every change is meant to be reviewable.
- Reversibility: you can undo changes instead of hoping for the best.
- Sharing: Claude, Codex, Cursor, and other MCP apps can use the same memory.
- Simplicity: your memory is made of Markdown files, not a locked database.
- Privacy: local-first storage keeps your memory closer to you.
## โจ What You Can Do With It
openmymemo is useful when you want your AI tools to remember helpful context across sessions and across apps.
You can use it to keep:
- Project notes and decisions.
- Personal preferences and writing style notes.
- Research summaries and references.
- Task context and follow-up items.
- Long-term notes you want multiple AI apps to understand.
- A clean history of what your AI assistant has learned.
Because the memory is a local folder, you can also open it in Obsidian or any text editor. That makes it easy to review, tidy, and organize your memory the same way you would organize normal notes.

Before you begin, make sure you are on a Windows computer with internet access for the download. You will also need an AI app that works with MCP if you want to share memory between tools.
## ๐งฉ Works With Your Favorite AI Tools
openmymemo is designed for AI apps that support MCP, which is a common way apps connect to tools and data sources. The description specifically calls out Claude, Codex, Cursor, and any MCP app.
That means you can build one memory folder and let multiple tools use it. For example, you might use one AI app for coding help, another for writing, and another for research. Instead of each app keeping its own separate memory, they can share the same local memory folder through openmymemo.
This is especially helpful if you switch between tools often. Your context follows you because the memory lives in your folder, not inside one app.
## ๐ How Your Memory Folder Works
Your memory folder is the center of openmymemo. It contains Markdown files that store information in a form you can read. Markdown is a simple text format used for notes, documentation, and knowledge bases.
A typical workflow looks like this:
1. You start openmymemo.
2. You choose or create a memory folder.
3. You connect an MCP-compatible AI app.
4. The app reads from and writes to your shared memory through openmymemo.
5. You review the folder whenever you want.
6. You undo changes you do not want to keep.
Because the folder is local, you can also copy it for backup, move it to another drive, or open it in Obsidian. If you already like working with Markdown notes, openmymemo fits naturally into that habit.
## ๐ Every Change Is Visible and Reversible
openmymemo is built around the idea that AI memory should not be a mystery. You should be able to see what your AI tools remember and correct mistakes.
The application is described as letting you see every change and undo it. That matters because AI memory can sometimes store outdated details, incorrect assumptions, or information you no longer want to use. With a visible local folder, you can review the memory directly and revert changes when needed.
This gives you a safer way to use AI memory over time. You are not stuck with whatever an AI app decided to remember. You can inspect, edit, and undo.
## ๐ก๏ธ Privacy and Local-First Design
openmymemo is local-first. Your memory is kept as a local folder you own rather than being hidden away in a closed system. This is useful for personal notes, project details, preferences, and other information you want to keep close.
Privacy does not mean you have to sacrifice usefulness. The goal is to let AI apps share memory while keeping the source of truth on your computer. You can decide what stays in the folder, what gets removed, and which apps you connect.
## ๐งฐ Common Uses
openmymemo can help with many everyday AI workflows:
- Coding projects: keep decisions, setup notes, and context available to Codex or Cursor.
- Writing projects: store style preferences, outlines, and recurring instructions.
- Research: keep summaries and references in one shared memory folder.
- Personal productivity# ๐ง openmymemo - Your AI memory, owned locally
