Show HN: Engram – Memory for AI coding agents (2.5K installs, 80% on LOCOMO)

Hacker News - Sat, 02/28/2026 - 11:55pm

Engram gives AI coding agents persistent memory across sessions. 2,500 npm installs in the first five days. The problem: every Claude Code or Cursor session starts from zero. You re-explain your architecture, conventions, past decisions. CLAUDE.md helps but it's manual and doesn't scale. Engram runs as a native MCP server. One command to install, SQLite backend, no infrastructure. Three tiers of memory:

Explicit: things you tell it to remember Implicit: behavioral patterns extracted from how you work (low confidence, reinforced over time) Synthesized: meta-observations generated during consolidation

The key architectural bet: intelligence at read time, not write time. Most memory systems extract and classify on ingest. Engram stores broadly and invests compute when you query, because that's when you actually know what matters. This is why it scores 80% on LOCOMO (arXiv:2402.17753) while using 30x fewer tokens than full-context retrieval. Stack: TypeScript, SQLite + sqlite-vec, Gemini embeddings by default (any OpenAI-compatible provider works via ENGRAM_LLM_BASE_URL). Zero external dependencies.

Install: npm install -g engram-sdk && engram init Comparison with Mem0, Zep/Graphiti, Letta/MemGPT: https://www.engram.fyi/compare GitHub: https://github.com/tstockham96/engram

Show HN: I put Claude Code inside a Telegram bot for voice memos

Hacker News - Sat, 02/28/2026 - 11:50pm

I never listen to my voice memos. Hundreds of recordings on my phone, all dead.

I built a Telegram bot that transcribes them (AssemblyAI, speaker labels, any language) — and then wired up Claude Agent SDK so you can talk to your files later.

Claude Agent SDK gives your bot the same tools Claude Code has — Read, Glob, Grep — running autonomously against your stored transcripts. Ask "what did my manager say about the deadline?" and it spawns an agent that browses your files, reads the relevant ones, and answers. Not keyword search. An actual agent reasoning over your data.

Self-hosted, your own API keys, MIT licensed. Runs anywhere Docker runs.

Show HN: Userscript to Display Age/Karma of HN Users

Hacker News - Sat, 02/28/2026 - 11:46pm

Small script to display account age/karma next to all usernames, so you have that info available to you without clicking through to someone's profile. Opus 4.6 written, it's a mess but it works :) Using with Tampermonkey on Firefox.

Show HN: A GFM+GF-MathJax/Latex HTML formatting adventure

Hacker News - Sat, 02/28/2026 - 11:05pm

I think this is apropos of the "Show HN" tag, as the post is explanatory and the entire codebase this little side-story use case discussed in TFA is in the repo and free to use. (I'd be pleased if you did!)

In the post, as I tried to capture in the title submitted, I outline my journey of exploration, when I became determined to make GitHub-Flavored Markdown display my text, with color, style and alignment of my choosing, which as I discovered after setting out to do so, the inability to do such a thing outside of fenced blocks with pre-defined syntax highlighting is a well-known condition, which is met with "works as intended" response because, well, GitHub doesn't want their repos looking like MySpace or Geocities or presenting security risk exposure by allowing arbitrary html/CSS styling. Sure, I should have used GitHub Pages to build a page from my Markdown using Jekyll, which is a supported way to control the styling of your own documents in your repo, but where's the fun in that?

The linked post documents the workaround I arrived at, which became an output target format that nobody has ever asked for from my ASCII line-Art diagramming tool. I thought some here might appreciate the documentation of "wasting my time so you don't have to" on a technical solution for a problem I probably just shouldn't have cared about and moved on.
