Why HackLM Memory?

Standard AI extensions start fresh every conversation. We built Memory so you stop repeating yourself.

100% Local Storage

All memories are stored as plain `.md` files in a `.memory` folder inside your workspace. No cloud, no vector databases, no remote subscriptions.

Editable & Transparent

Did Copilot misremember something? Just open the file and edit it. You have total control over what the AI knows about your project.

Auto-Injects Context

Works seamlessly with VS Code Copilot. HackLM intelligently parses your `.memory` directory and injects relevant context into your prompts.

Feature Comparison

While industry tools are built as complex cloud infrastructure or locked into proprietary ecosystem loops, HackLM Memory treats context as source code—100% local, editable, and portable.
