Don't summarize your memory — search it

Every long session with an AI coding agent eventually hits the same wall: the context window fills up, the conversation gets compacted, and a summary takes the place of what actually happened. Summaries are lossy by design. The decision you made three sessions ago, the reason you ruled out approach B, the exact path you fixed last Tuesday - quietly gone, because something decided they weren't important enough to keep. I got tired of re-explaining my own project to my own assistant. So I built brethof-mind: long-term memory for Claude Code (and Claude Desktop), built on SurrealDB.
