Shinobi
Local-first memory layer for AI coding agents
Your AI agent forgets every session. Shinobi gives it persistent memory — decisions, dead-ends, mobile push approvals, multi-machine sync. Local SQLite, no cloud. MIT licensed. MCP server works with Claude Code, Cursor, Cline, Continue.dev, Zed.
Hey PH! Solo dev here.
Shinobi started because I kept re-explaining the same decisions to Claude Code every session. Every conversation began with "remember we picked Postgres, not MongoDB?". The model is brilliant in a single session and a goldfish across sessions.
This is the MCP server I built to fix it. Local-first SQLite, plug into any MCP client (Claude Code, Cursor, Cline, Continue.dev, Zed), your data never leaves your machine unless you opt into the hosted SaaS (coming later).
Install: npm install -g @shinobiapps/shinobi
What's inside:
• Projects + tasks the agent claims/completes across sessions
• Decisions log with rationale (memory across sessions)
• Dead ends — failed approaches the agent doesn't retry
• Notes, voice notes, versioned plans, per-project context
• Web dashboard at localhost:8765 with Cmd+K command palette
• Cross-machine git-based sync, no cloud account required
Happy to answer any questions about the MCP design, the Cloudflare Worker relay for multi-agent sync, or the embedding-provider abstraction (Ollama/Voyage/OpenAI).
