basicmachines-co/basic-memory

Basic Memory lets you build persistent knowledge through natural conversations with Large Language Models (LLMs) like Claude, while keeping everything in simple Markdown files on your computer. It uses the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to enable any compatible LLM to read and write to your local knowledge base.

AI assistants can load context from local files in a new conversation. Notes are saved locally as Markdown files in real time. No project knowledge or special prompting required.

Most LLM interactions are ephemeral - you ask a question, get an answer, and everything is forgotten. Each conversation starts fresh, without the context or knowledge from previous ones. Basic Memory addresses these problems with a simple approach: structured Markdown files that both humans and LLMs can read and write to. All knowledge stays in files you control. Both you and the LLM read and write to the same files. LLMs can follow links between topics. Indexed in a local SQLite database.

TecharoHQ/anubis

Anubis weighs the soul of your connection using a sha256 proof-of-work challenge in order to protect upstream resources from scraper bots.

Installing and using this will likely result in your website not being indexed by some search engines. This is considered a feature of Anubis, not a bug.

This is a bit of a nuclear response, but AI scraper bots scraping so aggressively have forced my hand. I hate that I have to do this, but this is what we get for the modern Internet because bots don't conform to standards like robots.txt, even when they claim to.

In most cases, you should not need this and can probably get by using Cloudflare to protect a given origin. However, for circumstances where you can't or won't use Cloudflare, Anubis is there for you.
