OpenMemory MCP
ContextForge is persistent, searchable memory for AI coding agents โ built on the Model Context Protocol (MCP).
Your AI assistant forgets everything when the session ends. ContextForge fixes that: save architectural decisions, naming conventions, and debugging context once, and any MCP client recalls it later with semantic search โ across sessions and across projects.
Works with: Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, and Windsurf.

ContextForge.devNetmaker's answer
ContextForge.dev's answer:
ContextForge is memory that lives at the MCP layer, so it works across every AI coding agent at once โ Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, and Windsurf โ not just one. Save a decision once and any client recalls it later with semantic search. It goes beyond a note store: automatic git sync turns your commits and PRs into searchable knowledge, plus task tracking, snapshots, and team sharing โ all through a single MCP server you add with one command.
Netmaker's answer
Netmaker is faster, more configurable, cheaper, and can be fully-self hosted. With Netmaker, you're in control.
ContextForge.dev's answer:
Most memory tools are tied to a single agent or are just a key-value store. ContextForge is MCP-native, so it's portable across all your AI tools; it adds git sync so your codebase history becomes searchable context automatically; and it includes team features (shared spaces, collaborators) that solo-memory tools lack. Setup is one command, there's a genuine free-forever tier with no credit card, and paid plans start at just $9/month.
Netmaker's answer
IT admins, sysadmins, DevOps, InfraOps, platform engineers, and developers.
ContextForge.dev's answer:
Software developers and engineering teams who use AI coding assistants โ Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, Windsurf โ and are tired of re-explaining their project, architecture, and conventions every session. It fits solo developers working across multiple projects as well as small teams that need shared, persistent context.
Netmaker's answer
WireGuard, Golang, and Docker.
ContextForge.dev's answer:
Next.js 16 (App Router), React and Tailwind CSS for the dashboard, hosted on Vercel. Supabase (PostgreSQL) with pgvector powers the semantic vector search, and Deno edge functions serve the API. Embeddings use OpenAI text-embedding-3-small. The MCP client is a Node.js package (contextforge-mcp) on npm, implementing the Model Context Protocol.
ContextForge.dev's answer:
ContextForge was born from a simple frustration: AI coding agents forget everything the moment a session ends. Every new conversation meant re-explaining the same architecture, naming conventions, and past decisions. ContextForge was built to give AI agents a permanent, searchable memory through the Model Context Protocol โ so knowledge is captured once and reused forever, across sessions and projects. It even dogfoods its own memory to help build itself.

With Netmaker, you can have greater control and customization by assigning dedicated IP addresses to specific nodes within your network. I just stumble upon it yesterday, check it out. Source: about 3 years ago
These days, I'm trying to deploy full mesh VPN network with netmaker. It is really easy to use and manage. However there are something makes me confused. Source: about 3 years ago
If a TCP based protocol isn't an absolute must have, I'd ditch OpenVPN for Wireguard with some kind of management overlay. e.g netmaker. Source: about 3 years ago
Do the net maker https://github.com/gravitl/netmaker worth trying to use instead of Tailscale? Tailscale is good, but I can watch YouTube over Wi-Fi in another country, but when I try to use Jellyfin to watch movies itโs not loading well. Source: about 3 years ago
Very relatable! At first, I struggled for days trying to make Netmaker or Innernet functional for my personal home server (Raspberry Pi behind multiple routers). But then I stumbled upon ZeroTier, and everything worked seamlessly within a couple of hours. Tailscale was actually the next one on my list because I heard many positive things about it over at r/selfhosted (especially about headscale). However, I did... Source: over 3 years ago
