🧠 Knowledge & Memory
SummaryCodebase memory for coding agents, with no embeddings and no API key. A deterministic AST index answers "which files are relevant to this task?" in milliseconds, and agents write durable notes about the repo that are content-hash checked — a note flags itself stale the moment the code it describes changes. Notes are markdown inside the repo, so they commit and review alongside your code. npm i -g @cstart/coldstart && coldstart initReversibly compress a large tool output to a recoverable 8-hex handle over stdio, expand it on demand, and report a local token/dollar savings ledger.
