The repository has 13 stars and 5 forks, with the last commit 5 days ago. Recent commit activity is the strongest signal that reported issues will get attention.
Install
uvx synapse-layerpip install synapse-layerThis server has no ConduID identity, so agent calls to it are not receipted. Pin the version you install and review the source before granting it credentials.

🧠 Synapse Layer
RAG retrieves. Synapse remembers.
Persistent memory infrastructure for AI agents — AES-256-GCM encrypted at rest, semantic search, MCP-native.
Synapse Layer is open-source persistent memory infrastructure for AI agents and assistants. Memories are encrypted at rest with AES-256-GCM, indexed via pgvector HNSW for semantic recall, and exposed through MCP JSON-RPC for native integration with Claude, GPT, Gemini, and any MCP-compatible client. Apache 2.0 licensed.
⚡ 30-Second Quickstart
pip install synapse-layer
from synapse_layer import Synapse
s = Synapse(token="sk_connect_YOUR_TOKEN")
s.save("user likes coffee")
print(s.recall("what does user like?"))

What is Synapse Layer?
The persistent memory layer for AI agents — the missing piece between stateless LLMs and real continuity of context.
Your AI agents forget everything between sessions. Synapse Layer fixes that.
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| 🔐 Encrypted at rest | AES-256-GCM with per-operation random IV and HMAC-SHA-256 integrity |
| 🧩 One-click connect | Claude Desktop, Cursor, LangChain, CrewAI, n8n |
| 🌐 Cross-agent memory | Save in ChatGPT, recall in Claude |
| ⚡ MCP-native | Any MCP-compatible agent |
| 🔒 Header-first auth | Tokens never in URLs or logs |
| 🎯 Trust Quotient | Deterministic recall — memories ranked by confidence, not recency alone |
Why Synapse Layer?
Your AI agents forget everything between sessions. Synapse Layer fixes that — in one line.
| Without Synapse Layer | With Synapse Layer |
|---|---|
| Agent forgets context every session | Persistent memory across all sessions |
| Memory locked to one model | Cross-agent: save in ChatGPT, recall in Claude |
| No audit trail | Trust Quotient scoring on every memory |
| Complex integration | pip install synapse-layer + 3 lines of code |
| Plaintext stored on servers | AES-256-GCM encrypted at rest |
Install
pip install synapse-layer
Quick Start
Local SDK — in-process memory
import asyncio
from synapse_layer import SynapseClient
async def main():
memory = SynapseClient(agent_id="my-agent")
# Save
await memory.store("User prefers dark mode and concise answers")
# Recall
results = await memory.recall("user preferences")
for r in results:
print(f"[TQ={r.trust_quotient:.2f}] {r.content}")
asyncio.run(main())
Cloud — Forge API (persistent, cross-agent)
from synapse_memory.client import Synapse
client = Synapse(token="sk_connect_YOUR_TOKEN")
client.remember("User prefers dark mode and concise answers")
results = client.recall("user preferences")
for r in results:
print(r["content"])

Security
| Feature | Implementation |
|---|---|
| Encryption | AES-256-GCM at rest with per-operation random IV |
| Integrity | HMAC-SHA-256 on content |
| Auth | Header-first (x-connect-token) — tokens never in URLs or logs |
| Privacy | Content sanitization + tenant-scoped encrypted storage |
| Isolation | 1 user = 1 tenant = 1 private mind |
