Leteo Overview

Leteo MCP server gives coding agents persistent project memory through a local SQLite database. It stores decisions, fixes, conventions, and discoveries, then makes relevant entries available in later sessions through 22 MCP tools. The single Rust binary runs locally without a separate server or API key, making it suitable for agents that need continuity across sessions. Reach for it when context compaction or new sessions cause an agent to lose project-specific knowledge.

Primary Use Cases for Leteo:
  • Preserve project decisions across coding-agent sessions
  • Retrieve prior bug fixes and conventions during development
  • Browse stored agent memories in a terminal UI
  • Export or delete a project's local memory
