remembrandt: Give Your Coding Agent a Memory It Never Loses (Claude Code / Cursor / Codex)

Description and use

remembrandt lets coding agents remember decisions and gotchas by storing them in a MEMORY.md file, eliminating the need to re‑explain context.

Problem

Coding agents forget context between sessions, requiring users to re‑explain architecture and decisions each time.

Outcome

remembrandt enables coding agents to remember project decisions, gotchas, and changelogs across sessions without cloud dependencies, reducing friction and time spent re‑explaining context.

Workflow

• Install remembrandt via pip or editable install.
• Run remembrandt init to create the .remembrandt directory.
• Use remembrandt remember "<text>" --category <cat> --tags <tags> to add entries.
• The tool writes entries to MEMORY.md in the repo.
• The agent reads MEMORY.md at session start, eliminating the need to re‑explain context.

Evidence

It writes every decision, gotcha, and changelog to MEMORY.md — which lives in your repo and travels with the project.
