Lines where the two differ have a tinted background and bold values. Where the data itself says which value is better (more marketplaces, a larger figure of the same marketplace, a fresher release, a verified mark on a marketplace that lists both), the better one is also marked green with ▲ and the worse one red with ▼. Where it runs, the transport, the tools, the settings, hooks, the bundle's parts, the licence and the week's changes are marked only as different: more or fewer is not better in itself.
What each says it does
agent-memory
A four-tier memory ladder for Claude Code where promotion is earned by recurrence, not asserted by confidence. L0 raw transcripts are never injected; L1 candidate atoms are gitignored and recalled on lexical relevance per prompt; L2 project context loads each session start; L3 stable persona is always loaded. L1 to L2 needs three distinct sessions spanning two distinct calendar days (a stated claim needs two; a verified claim is the only single-observation path); L2 to L3 needs two projects and thirty days. Two gates refuse rather than guess: a claim altered by the redaction pass never promotes on evidence alone, and a contradicted claim freezes until a human resolves it. Three hooks run the loop unattended and every one fails open. Nothing reaches a committed CLAUDE.md without an explicit human adopt. Ships 5 stdlib scripts, 3 hooks, a cs-memory-curator agent, /cs-memory, a JSON schema, and a 69-check validator. Concept from TencentCloud/TencentDB-Agent-Memory (MIT); no upstream code included.
Mneme Memory
Cross-session memory for AI coding agents via six tools; local-first SQLite store.
