devnexus
Shared persistent memory vault for AI coding agents across repos

devnexus creates a shared persistent memory system for AI coding agents working across multiple repositories and sessions. It spins up an Obsidian-based knowledge vault that gets synced via git every ~60 seconds, allowing multiple agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, OpenAI Codex) to share architectural decisions, API contracts, data schemas, and cross-repo code graphs — with proper version history. The core problem it solves is "agent amnesia" on teams where multiple developers use different AI tools. Each agent starts every session fresh, unaware of decisions made by the agent next door. devnexus gives them all a common memory store that persists across sessions and codebases. Created April 14, 2026, it's early-stage but addresses a pain point that becomes more acute as teams scale up AI-assisted development. The Obsidian format is a clever choice: the vault is human-readable, searchable with standard tools, and works as a documentation layer even without the AI integration. Git sync means there's a full audit trail of what the agents "knew" at any given time — useful for debugging why an agent made a surprising architectural choice.

oh-my-pi
Terminal coding agent with hashline edits — 10x fewer whitespace bugs

oh-my-pi is a TypeScript + Rust terminal coding agent built by indie developer can1357 that introduces "hashline edits" — a novel approach to LLM-generated code patches that eliminates the whitespace reproduction errors that plague standard diff formats. Rather than asking the model to reproduce exact surrounding context, hashline edits use content hashes to anchor edits, allowing the model to specify changes without recreating indentation-sensitive blocks. The result is dramatic: benchmarks show Grok Code Fast improved from 6.7% to 68.3% on edit accuracy tests when using hashline format versus standard unified diff. The tool also ships with full LSP support for 40+ languages, a persistent IPython kernel for stateful Python execution, parallel subagents via git worktrees, and a config loader that ingests rules from Cursor, Windsurf, Gemini CLI, and 5 other tools — making it a meta-layer across all your AI coding environments. With 2,800 GitHub stars after a quiet release, oh-my-pi is gaining a cult following among power users who've hit the ceiling on mainstream terminal agents. The hashline format has already been proposed as a candidate for cross-tool standardization.
Reviewer scorecard
“Agent amnesia is a real tax on multi-engineer teams using AI tools. devnexus's approach of using Obsidian + git means the memory is portable, auditable, and doesn't depend on any specific AI provider's memory feature. It's rough around the edges but the concept is sound and I'd build on top of it today.”
“Hashline edits alone make this worth switching to. I've lost hours to whitespace-induced diff failures in other agents — oh-my-pi just gets it right. The multi-tool config loading means I don't have to re-document my project rules for every agent I try.”
“This is a four-day-old project solving a genuinely hard problem in the simplest possible way — which means it'll break in interesting edge cases immediately. Obsidian vault conflicts under git are a known pain point, and 60-second sync cycles could create race conditions on busy teams. Wait for it to survive contact with a real multi-engineer setup.”
“2,800 stars from a solo indie dev with no company backing is a red flag for production use. The TypeScript + Rust hybrid adds complexity, and there's no SLA or support channel. This is a research toy until it has a real community.”
“Shared agent memory is the missing coordination primitive for AI-assisted software teams. devnexus is a minimal implementation of an idea that will eventually be built into every enterprise AI coding platform. Getting ahead of that curve now — even with rough tooling — gives teams a learning advantage.”
“Hashline edits could become the standard format for AI code patches industry-wide. If this gets adopted by the major agent frameworks, it eliminates one of the most persistent failure modes in AI-assisted development. The person-years of debugging time saved globally would be enormous.”
“For design systems and component libraries shared across repos, the idea is compelling — agents that remember 'we use this button component, not that one' would save a lot of correction cycles. But until this is more than a four-day-old script, I'd treat it as inspiration rather than infrastructure.”
“I use oh-my-pi for front-end work and the LSP integration means it actually understands component boundaries instead of clobbering them. The config aggregation from all my other tools was unexpected and immediately useful.”
