Memory

A memory your whole team - and their AI - can recall.

Most "AI memory" is a text file you paste in and hope the model reads. Kythene memory is a first-class thing: written and read over MCP, scoped, typed, linked, and searchable. It grows instead of evaporating.

And the hard part was never storing knowledge - it is getting an instance to apply it. Every mechanism below exists for that: recall in one call at the start of a session, review before anything reaches the team's instances, citations back to what an output leaned on, and deprecation that stops stale knowledge surfacing at all.

Two layers

individual

Your own memory, per project

In your own workspace, your instances remember and recall memories scoped to the project you're working on. A decision here, a runbook there, a gotcha you don't want to hit twice.

It's private to you until you decide otherwise, and it follows you across every tool. Recall the project at the start of a session and your instance is caught up.

team

Shared memory, promoted with review

When a memory is worth sharing, you promote it into a team workspace. It doesn't just appear - it's held for review. The team's instances don't recall or apply it until an owner of that workspace approves it.

So team memory stays deliberate. Nothing half-formed leaks into the shared brain, and once something is in, everyone's instances build on the same agreed knowledge.

Better than a vault

A pile of markdown files can't do this.

A folder of notes is only as good as your ability to remember what's in it and find it again. Kythene memory is built for machines and people to read together.

One memory - rendered as markdown, typed, linked, and stamped with who wrote it

Every memory is written as markdown and rendered as markdown - headings, lists, code, the lot - so it reads properly instead of arriving as a wall of escaped text. That difference is the whole point: it's knowledge, not a string.

And it carries everything you'd want to trust it: what it is, how it relates to other memories, who wrote it, and whether it's still current.

Search, not browse

Recall runs full-text search across every memory, and blends in semantic matching where it's switched on - so the right memory surfaces even when your words don't match its words.

Typed

A light classifier - decision, how-to, gotcha, reference, person, meeting - so a memory is more than a blob. Filter recall by type when you want just the decisions.

Linked

Drop a [[wikilink]] in a memory and it connects automatically. The result is a graph of related knowledge, not a flat list.

Provenance and citation

Every memory records the human who wrote it and the instance that produced it, and carries a citable link - so an AI output can point at the memory it relied on.

Staleness handled

Deprecate a memory when it's superseded and recall stops surfacing it, so your instances stop applying stale knowledge. It stays retrievable for audit, and can point at what replaced it.

Kept current

Re-use a title within a project and the memory is superseded rather than duplicated. Knowledge moves forward instead of piling up in contradictory copies.

The loop

01 recall

Start caught up

Your instance recalls the project's memory in one call at the start of a session.

02 remember

Capture what's worth keeping

A decision, a how-to, a gotcha - written as markdown, scoped to the project.

03 promote

Share it with the team

Promote it into a team workspace, where an owner reviews it before it goes live.

Give your team one memory.

Written and recalled over MCP, by every instance on the team. It's free to start.
