My AI tools kept forgetting everything, so I gave them a shared brain (local + open source)

Hi there! this is my first small rant that turned into a project: every AI tool I use has its own memory. I tell Claude Desktop something, Cursor has no clue. New chat? Back to zero. It drove me nuts — so I built Centralaizer.

This is an open source solution, so it's free with MIT license. It's a little memory hub that runs on your own machine. Any MCP tool (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Claude Code, VS Code Copilot…) plugs into it and they all share the same memory. Save a fact or a decision in one, the others can pull it right up. No cloud — everything stays on your laptop.

A few things I cared about:

  • 🧠 opt-in, not spying — the agent decides what to save/recall
  • 🚧 sketchy notes get held in a review queue instead of polluting everyone's memory
  • 🔒 it scrubs PII (emails, keys, phones) before storing
  • 🔎 search isn't just keywords — vector + full-text + a little knowledge graph
  • 🖥️ a web dashboard to browse it all (light and dark mode 🌙)

One command (./setup_and_run.sh) or Docker. There's also a Claude Code hook for auto-recall, one-click export, and a browser extension to bring it into ChatGPT/Gemini/Qwen.

Would love thoughts — or roasts — on the retrieval and the "trust score" idea. Any feedback is more than welcome as it's an initial project.
