How we review

Extended accessThe tool runs code or makes network calls and only reads external data.

  • The plugin saves information from conversations into a local store, which can include personal data.
  • It downloads an executable on first use and sends anonymous telemetry.

This is third-party code. Review the repository files before installing.

What it does

linggen-memory is a plugin and skill with a local daemon, `ling-mem`, that keeps a memory of you for all connected agents. On every turn the plugin recalls the relevant rows, and facts you state outright are saved at once. Memory has tiers. Core holds a handful of durable facts about the person and is present in every session. Long-term holds what has proven durable and is retrieved on demand. Short-term collects events per turn, and a nightly pass decides what stays. Every row is filed under the directory it is about, so recall depends on where you work. The daemon stores data in LanceDB with multilingual Qwen3-Embedding-0.6B embeddings, answers in NDJSON and serves a built-in data browser at `127.0.0.1:9528`. What was recorded from your own words changes only with your consent, and merges are archived rather than deleted.

Who it is for. People who work with several agents at once and do not want to repeat preferences, rules and project context to each.

Good fit when

  • You told Claude Code a formatting rule on Monday and Codex should know it on Tuesday.
  • An agent in a project should remember how you format logs and not ask every time.
  • You want to browse, edit or delete saved facts in a browser.
  • You want memory with no SaaS, signup or API key, entirely on your machine.

Not a fit when

  • You need team memory with shared access: the store is personal and local.
  • The system is Windows or Linux with an old glibc: prebuilt binaries cover Apple Silicon and Linux with glibc 2.39 or newer.
  • Nothing from conversations may be stored even locally.

Example request

Remember that in this project I prefer concise replies without hedging, and find what you already know about my log style.

Limitations

Prebuilt binaries target macOS on Apple Silicon and Linux (x86_64 and aarch64, glibc 2.39 and newer, for example Ubuntu 24.04). The nightly part that decides what to promote and what to forget runs only together with Linggen, while in other agents the daytime part runs on every turn. The binary is downloaded on first use into `~/.local/bin/ling-mem` with SHA-256 verification. `ling-mem` sends anonymous usage statistics to linggen.dev, switched off with `LING_MEM_NO_TELEMETRY=1`.

How to disable. Remove the plugin through the agent plugin manager, stop the daemon and delete `~/.local/bin/ling-mem`. You can clear memory in the data browser or with `ling-mem forget`.

FAQ

How do I install it for Claude Code?

With `claude plugin marketplace add linggen/linggen-memory` and `claude plugin install linggen@linggen-memory` in the shell, then restart the agent.

What about Codex and other agents?

For Codex: `codex plugin marketplace add linggen/linggen-memory` and `codex plugin add linggen@linggen-memory`. For any agent use `npx skills add linggen/linggen-memory@linggen`, for OpenClaw `clawhub install linggen`.

Where is the data stored?

On your machine: the `ling-mem` daemon keeps a LanceDB store. The built-in browser at `http://127.0.0.1:9528` lets you filter, edit and batch-delete rows.

Can I forget a session?

Yes: `ling-mem forget --source-session sess-123 --yes` removes everything one session wrote.

What does telemetry send?

An install event and the memory command name such as `memory.search`. Fact and query text, embeddings, paths and IP are never sent; disable with `LING_MEM_NO_TELEMETRY=1`.

README in short

The system splits into day and night: by day the plugin captures and recalls memory, at night a Linggen mission reviews the day, promotes what proved durable and forgets the rest. The store schema and the CLI, HTTP and MCP contract are frozen.

  Linggen — durable cross-host memory plus browser control, over two
  local MCP servers: `ling-mem` for memory, the Linggen engine for
  browser, X and agents. Memory: three-tier model (core + long-term +
  episodic staging) of who the user is, not a log of what was done;
  same `ling-mem` daemon and store in Claude Code, Codex, and
  OpenClaw, and reachable over the LAN from a second machine
  (`/linggen:config`). Browser: agent control of the user's own Chrome
  with per-site permission prompts, and logged-in X session reads.

You are **Ling**, operating inside the linggen skill — the user's
durable cross-session memory (plus browser control, below). Memory is
your surface: you read and write the user's permanent biography.

**Interface order:** prefer the `memory_*` MCP tools from the `linggen`
server (`memory_search`, `memory_add`, `memory_get`, `memory_update`,
`memory_delete`, `memory_list`) — they proxy the same ling-mem daemon
with the same semantics. When the MCP server is unavailable (daemon
down, headless host), fall back to the **`ling-mem` CLI** via `Bash`;
