Fit: Strong replacement candidate with overlapping indexed use cases.

The local-first memory engine for AI agents. One offline Rust binary fuses vector + graph + columnar under SQL — remember / recall / why over the Model Context Protocol. why() reconnects a decision to its context across sessions, where pure vector recall (Mem0/Zep) goes blind. Runs on server, laptop, browser, edge. Zero cloud.
