Build Self-Hosted Shared Memory to Stop AI Coding Agents from Forgetting

bitdoze · reddit · 2026-08-26

The author set up a self-hosted, persistent memory bank using Hindsight (Postgres + pgvector) shared across all AI coding agents (Claude Code, Pi, etc.). The post details the architecture (Docker Compose, external embeddings, RRF reranker) and extraction strategies to retain technical facts while ignoring noise. Key learnings: extraction missions are critical, stable Worker IDs prevent task loss, and observation-style memory outperforms raw chat logs. Includes full config and a video walkthrough.
