What's New in CogmemAi v3: Self-Tuning Memory for Ai Coding Assistants

CogmemAi has been live for a week. In that time, I've shipped 8 releases, 30+ improvements, and a few features I didn't expect to build. Here's what changed and why it matters.

If you're not familiar with CogmemAi: it gives Claude Code (and Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, Continue) persistent memory across sessions. One command setup, zero local databases. Get started free.

Memory Health Score

Every session now starts with a health score from 0-100. It tells you at a glance whether your memory system is working well or needs attention.

Instead of wondering "am I saving enough?" or "is my memory cluttered?", you get a number and actionable factors. A score of 90+ means your memory is healthy. Below 70, there's room to improve.

This matters because memory systems degrade silently. Without a health check, you'd never know half your memories were stale until Claude Code started giving you bad advice.

Session Replay

The most-requested improvement: pick up where you left off.

When you start a new session, CogmemAi now loads a summary of what you accomplished last time. No scrolling through old conversations. No "what was I working on?" moment. You just... continue.

This is especially valuable after compaction events. Claude Code compresses your context, everything gets summarized, and you lose the thread. Session replay bridges that gap automatically.

Self-Tuning Memory

This is the one I'm most proud of.

Memories that get recalled frequently have their importance boosted automatically. Memories that never get recalled and are old enough get archived automatically. You don't have to manage importance scores by hand anymore.

The result: your memory system gets smarter over time. Frequently useful knowledge becomes easier to find. Stale facts fade away. Zero manual maintenance required.

Auto-Ingest README

When CogmemAi detects a brand new project with zero memories, it checks for a README and offers to ingest it. This bootstraps your memory instantly instead of waiting for facts to accumulate over multiple sessions.

Start a new project, and Claude already knows your tech stack, setup instructions, and architecture from day one.

Smart Recall

This shipped in v3.0 but has been quietly improving. When you switch topics mid-session, CogmemAi automatically surfaces relevant memories without you asking.

Working on auth? Memories about your auth system appear. Switching to the database layer? Those memories surface instead. It happens in the background, no commands needed.

28 Tools, Zero Configuration

CogmemAi now has 28 tools that your Ai assistant uses automatically:

  • Memory CRUD — save, recall, update, delete, bulk operations
  • Ai-powered — extract facts from conversations, ingest documents, consolidate related memories
  • Task tracking — persistent tasks with status and priority that carry across sessions
  • Learning — correction patterns (wrong to right) and next-session reminders
  • Analytics — health dashboard, stale detection, usage stats, file change awareness
  • Organization — knowledge graph links, version history, tags, project scoping

All of this works out of the box. No configuration. No prompting Claude to use the tools. It just knows.

Works Everywhere

CogmemAi isn't just for Claude Code anymore. It works with any MCP-compatible Ai coding tool:

  • Claude Code (recommended — includes compaction recovery and session hooks)
  • Cursor
  • Windsurf
  • Cline
  • Continue

Same memories, same tools, any editor.

Getting Started

npx cogmemai-mcp setup
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

That's it. Free tier includes 500 memories and 5 projects. Get your API key at hifriendbot.com/developer.

If you're already using CogmemAi, update to the latest:

npm install -g cogmemai-mcp@latest
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

What's Next

I'm working on more features, but I'd rather ship them than talk about them. If you try CogmemAi and have feedback, open an issue on GitHub.

The goal hasn't changed: make Ai coding assistants remember everything so you never re-explain your codebase again.
