Tree Ring Memory
Tree Ring Memory is a framework-agnostic, local-first memory lifecycle layer for AI agents that organizes information into rings based on age, confidence, and importance. It replaces raw transcript dumps with a structured, inspectable memory store using SQLite and FTS that allows agents to consolidate, audit, and intentionally forget information.
Recent versions (v0.13-v0.15) introduced schema-v3 support, coordinated-write policies for multi-agent setups, project-local harness activation with receipt-backed readiness, and improved scope-preserving CLI updates.
As of
- Local-first SQLite storage with FTS recall
- Lifecycle-aware memory rings including cambium, heartwood, and scars
- Deterministic consolidation and audit tools without requiring LLMs
- Support for multi-agent correlation and coordinated write policies
- Integrated terminal UI for memory inspection and management
