Total Recall: open-source ledger-based memory framework that lets agents survive resets
alexcovo_eth · x · 2026-10-12
- The author's total-recall framework (open source, AGPL-3.0) was picked up by the XERJ Corpus Hub, an open index coding agents consult before reinventing fixes.
- Design: a local-first, framework-agnostic continuity engine using an append-only ledger as source of truth, deterministic state reduction, signed checkpoints, integrity verification before rehydration, and rebuildable local retrieval indexes.
- Already running on Cal, a Hermes agent on the author's Grok bot VM: memory accumulates each session, is backed up nightly, and survives resets. Fixes include hardened ledger parsing and isolated index maintenance.
