ContextForge Memory
About ContextForge Memory
ContextForge Memory provides persistent memory for AI coding agents such as Claude Code, Cursor, and GitHub Copilot through the MCP protocol. It eliminates the need to repeatedly explain project context by maintaining memory across sessions, including architecture decisions, naming conventions, and git history. The tool integrates with existing workflows via a simple MCP configuration change, enabling agents to retain and retrieve relevant project knowledge automatically. It supports semantic search, git integration, and real-time session presence tracking to coordinate team work without blocking access. Projects are organized into spaces and grouped under projects, with each space maintaining its own embeddings index for focused retrieval. Users can import and export data, manage API keys, and create snapshots for backup. The service offers a free tier with limited queries and storage, alongside paid plans for higher usage and team collaboration.
