Open source memory layer so any AI agent can do what Claude.ai and ChatGPT do

Forensic Summary

Stash is an open-source persistent memory layer for AI agents using PostgreSQL and pgvector, exposing a broad MCP tool surface (28 tools) that introduces significant attack vectors including memory poisoning, sensitive data leakage, and cross-namespace contamination. While marketed as a productivity enhancement, the architecture centralises long-term agent memory in a shared backend, creating a high-value target for adversarial manipulation. Security teams deploying autonomous agents should treat persistent memory stores as critical infrastructure requiring strict access controls and integrity validation.
