}Geniuz — persistent memory for Claude
Normally every conversation with Claude starts from zero — you re-teach your context, preferences, and decisions each time. Geniuz keeps them: the standards you set, the calls you made, and the reasons behind them, recalled by meaning across sessions and compactions. It runs entirely on your own machine — semantic search via a bundled ONNX model, no cloud, no account, no API keys — and plugs into Claude Desktop through Anthropic's MCP standard on macOS, Windows, and Linux.Three tools
