Universal AI Memory Plugin — persistent, verified, hallucination-resistant memory for any LLM, agent, or coding workflow

Project description

🧠 Mnemosynth

Persistent, hallucination-resistant memory for any LLM, agent, or AI workflow.

pip install mnemosynth       # Fast, lightweight install (Keyword-based engines)
pip install "mnemosynth[ml]" # Advanced install (Loads PyTorch/Transformers for Neural Models)

PyPI · Apache 2.0 · Python ≥ 3.10 · No external services required


The Problem

LLMs forget everything when a session ends. RAG helps — but raw retrieval doesn't verify, decay, or reason about what it stores. You get confident hallucinations, stale facts, and no audit trail.

Mnemosynth is a cognitive memory OS, not a vector store.


Three-Tier Memory Model

Inspired by how the brain actually works:

Tier Brain Region Backend What It Stores
Episodic Hippocampus LanceDB (vector) Events, conversations, timestamped history
Semantic Neocortex NetworkX (graph) Verified facts, entity relationships
Procedural Cerebellum JSON registry Tools, schemas, workflows

Memories are automatically classified on write. No manual tagging required.


Quickstart

Python API

from mnemosynth import Mnemosynth

brain = Mnemosynth()

# Store — auto-classified into episodic/semantic/procedural
brain.remember("User prefers Python and dark mode")
brain.remember("Yesterday we finalized the auth module")
brain.remember("Deploy with: docker compose up -d")

# Retrieve with semantic search
for r in brain.recall("What languages does the user prefer?"):
    print(f"[{r.memory_type.value}] {r.content} ({r.confidence:.0%})")

# Compress relevant memories into a <150-token LLM context block
digest = brain.digest("Starting a new project")

# Dream: cluster episodic patterns -> promote to verified semantic facts
brain.dream()

MCP Server (Claude Desktop / Cursor / Windsurf)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mnemosynth": {
      "command": "mnemosynth",
      "args": ["serve"]
    }
  }
}

Everything runs locally under ~/.mnemosynth/. No external services.


Anti-Hallucination Engine

Mnemosynth doesn't just store — it defends:

  • Forgetting curve — Ebbinghaus decay with configurable half-life; stale memories lose confidence
  • Contradiction detection — Flags conflicting facts (Uses DeBERTa NLI if [ml] is installed, otherwise falls back to fast keyword analysis)
  • Sentiment analysis — Emotion-aware memory retrieval (Uses DistilBERT if [ml] is installed, otherwise falls back to fast keyword scoring)
  • Belief revision chains — Deprecated facts link forward to their replacements
  • Corroboration scoring — Repeated observations boost confidence
  • Memory immune system — Prompt injection detection, rate limiting, quarantine

Dream Consolidation

Run brain.dream() (or mnemosynth dream) to trigger offline consolidation:

  1. Cluster episodic memories with HDBSCAN
  2. Promote recurring patterns to verified semantic facts
  3. Decay memories that haven't been accessed recently

Think of it as sleep for your AI's memory.
