Feature & Specification Comparison

Specification	YourMemory sachitrafa Knowledge & Memory	Statelessagent sgx-labs Knowledge & Memory
Summary	Persistent memory for AI agents with Ebbinghaus forgetting-curve decay, hybrid BM25+vector retrieval, and entity graph for multi-hop reasoning. Memories auto-prune by importance and recall rate. Built-in browser dashboard, multi-agent support, and yourmemory ask for zero-API-call local queries. pip install yourmemory	Memory with provenance tracking — records where agent knowledge originated and detects when sources change. 17 MCP tools for session handoffs, decisions, semantic search, and knowledge graph. Works across Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Codex CLI, and Gemini CLI. Single Go binary, SQLite + vector search, fully local.
