SQLite Local AI Memory Overview

SQLite Local AI Memory gives AI assistants persistent memory in a local SQLite file accessed through a stdio MCP server. It stores facts, tracks superseded versions, and searches memories with parallel FTS5 keyword and Int8 vector retrieval, including point-in-time queries. Use it when an agent needs durable project context without a hosted database. Gemini, Ollama, or bare SQLite FTS5 provide different levels of reasoning and search capability.

Primary Use Cases for SQLite Local AI Memory:
  • Persist project decisions across AI coding sessions
  • Search exact error codes and related technical concepts
  • Track changing configuration values with version history
  • Resume unresolved debugging investigations
