Memory & Context
Memory layers, context managers and retrieval tools that give DSH agents persistent recall.
Persistence layers: vector stores, note systems, context compaction and retrieval helpers that keep an agent coherent past the first window. We track 29 repositories in this bucket, 4% of the 714 projects in the directory. Together they hold about 20.6k GitHub stars, though the median project sits near 161 — the headline number comes from a handful of very large repos, as usual in a young ecosystem.
By language the mix is JavaScript (12), TypeScript (11), Python (6); by license it is MIT (23), NOASSERTION (2). 28 of 29 have been pushed since August 2026, so the bucket is still moving. The three largest projects by stars are MemOS, memsearch, dsh-mnemon.
Match the store to your retrieval pattern: a notes system and a vector index solve different problems. Sort by last update rather than stars for anything you plan to depend on, and open the README before installing: a plugin that is three months stale may still work, but you want to know that going in.
Browsing the whole set instead? The full plugin index lists all 714 repositories with stars, language and last-update date in one table. Adjacent categories worth a look: UI & Themes, Models & Routing, Desktop Apps, Agents & Teams. If you are still choosing a runtime, read the install guide first.
