YAMS

YAMS is local-first, persistent memory for code, documents, and applications. It combines content-addressed storage with text, vector, graph, and grep retrieval.

Experimental: YAMS is pre-1.0 and may change without compatibility guarantees.

Start

brew install trvon/yams/yams
yams init
echo "hello world" | yams add - --tags demo
yams search hello

For MCP-compatible developer tools:

yams serve
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "yams": {
      "command": "yams",
      "args": ["serve"]
    }
  }
}

Reference

Command behavior is documented by yams --help and yams <command> --help. Machine-readable interface contracts live with the source.
