Your AI tools are brilliant — but they forget everything between sessions. Olliver doesn't. He stores your project context as plain files on your filesystem and carries it across every AI tool you use.
Model-agnostic. Vendor-independent. Yours.
AI collaboration is powerful — until you cross a boundary. Switch from Claude to Cursor, and your architectural decisions stay behind. Start a new session, and the model forgets what you decided yesterday. Move between models, and the context that made one conversation productive doesn't travel to the next.
Every vendor has memory. Claude has Projects. ChatGPT has Memory. Gemini has context caching. But every memory system is vertically integrated. Brilliant collaboration inside one tool doesn't survive crossing to another.
The problem isn't intelligence — it's continuity across tools. The problem isn't memory inside a single session — it's portability between them.
Olliver is a context vessel — he carries your project knowledge across every AI tool you use. Hand him your decisions, your specs, your architecture, and he keeps them safe in plain markdown files on your disk.
Context lives in markdown files on your disk, not in any vendor's cloud. You own it, you version it, you control it.
Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor — any MCP-compatible client. Switch freely; your context follows.
Change your editor, change your model, change your mind. He carries your context wherever you go.
Capsules are superseded and archived, never deleted. Every decision has a history you can trace.
No databases, no caches, no in-memory state. The filesystem is the single source of truth — inspect it with ls anytime.
Olliver manages context like a warehouse manages inventory. He takes the decisions, patterns, and specs buried in your AI conversations and distills them into durable Capsules — structured markdown files that any future session can pick up and use.
External files come in through Receiving. Conversations get extracted into Drafts. Approved Capsules live on the Shelf. Superseded ones retire to the Crate. The Rack is your active workspace — only what you mount participates in your session.
