### Description (declared)

# akasha

A local knowledge base that gives coding agents a memory, served over MCP.

## The problem

Every agent session starts from zero. Yesterday an agent spent an hour working out why a
test fails one run in twenty: two tests share a fixture directory and the cleanup of one
races the setup of the other. It fixed the test and the session ended. The reasoning
lived in a context window, and the window is gone. Today another agent meets the same
flake, reads the same files and derives the same answer, spending the same time and
context to get there.

What you already know is not missing, it is scattered. Some of it sits in Claude Code
project memory, some in Serena memories, some in a notes folder, some in markdown files
inside repos. Each agent writes to its own corner, and none of them searches the others.
Pasting notes into prompts does not scale: context is the scarce resource, and every
pasted page crowds out the work. Conventions ("migrations are reviewed before merge",
"never mock the database in integration tests") get retyped at the start of session
after session.

## How akasha fixes it

akasha builds one local index over the markdown you already have. It is read-only by
default and copies nothing: your files stay the source of truth, and the SQLite index
derived from them can be deleted and rebuilt at any time.

Agents search it through MCP before they start investigating, and write what they find
back as ordinary markdown with `knowledge_write` and `knowledge_append`. The next
session starts where the last one ended. Search is keyword (BM25) and, if enabled, dense
retrieval, fused by reciprocal rank. Results are sized for a context window: a handful of
capped hits, with `knowledge_get` to page into a document only when one is worth reading.

Conventions are documents of `kind=convention`. They are delivered automatically at
session start and are read-only to agents; only the CLI can create or change one. Hooks
keep the index fresh without anyone thinki…
