chore: initialize EverOS 1.0.0
md-first memory extraction framework for AI agents. Markdown is the single source of truth; SQLite holds state and LanceDB provides the rebuildable vector + BM25 + scalar index. The codebase follows a single-direction DDD layering (entrypoints -> service -> memory -> infra, with component / core / config cross-cutting) enforced by import-linter. Engineering surface: - Coding conventions in .claude/rules/ (path-scoped) and workflows in .claude/skills/ (/commit, /new-branch, /pr). - GitHub Actions CI runs make lint + test + integration; pre-commit mirrors the gates locally (ruff, hygiene hooks, gitlint commit-msg). - Commit messages follow Conventional Commits, enforced by gitlint. - make lint also enforces datetime two-zone discipline and OpenAPI drift.

# EverOS — Project Overview
|
||||
|
||||
## Vision
|
||||
|
||||
Build an open-source Python memory framework where **AI agents' long-term memory is plain Markdown files on the user's disk**, not opaque rows in a hosted database.
|
||||
|
||||
## Scope
|
||||
|
||||
**In scope (v1)**:
|
||||
|
||||
- Local deployment for personal agents or small teams
|
||||
- Conversation, workflow, agent-trace, file-knowledge → structured memory
|
||||
- Hybrid retrieval (BM25 + vector + scalar filter)
|
||||
- Cascade index sync (md edit → LanceDB sub-second)
|
||||
- Dual-track memory (user-track / agent-track)
|
||||
- Offline memory evolution (Foresight / AtomicFact / Profile / Skill)
|
||||
- CLI + HTTP API
|
||||
|
||||
**Out of scope (v1, future v2)**:
|
||||
|
||||
- Multi-tenant / group / community deployment (10K+ users)
|
||||
- End-to-cloud sync (planned for v2)
|
||||
- Distributed deployment / sharding
|
||||
|
||||
## Design philosophy
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Markdown as Source of Truth
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
delete all LanceDB / SQLite files → can rebuild from md
|
||||
delete any md file → memory is gone
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
User trust comes from physical visibility — the user can `cat` / `vim` / `grep` their own memory at any time.
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Three-piece storage with clear job boundaries
|
||||
|
||||
| Component | Role | Does NOT do |
|
||||
|---|---|---|
|
||||
| Markdown files | Truth source — entries, frontmatter | Search (grep is degraded fallback only) |
|
||||
| SQLite | Queue, cascade audit log, sensitive data isolation | Vector / full-text |
|
||||
| LanceDB | Vector ANN + BM25 + scalar filter, single-query hybrid | Be the source of truth (loss = rebuild from md) |
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Algorithm-orchestration separation
|
||||
|
||||
[`everalgo`](https://github.com/EverMind-AI/EverAlgo) (a separate library, published as the `everalgo-*` PyPI packages) holds the extraction algorithms (MemCell extraction, Episode generation, Profile evolution). EverOS calls everalgo via the PromptSlot interface; everalgo knows nothing about storage.
|
||||
|
||||
This boundary lets the same algorithm power both this open-source lightweight version and other product forms.
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. DDD layered architecture
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
entrypoints → service → memory → infra
|
||||
↓
|
||||
component / core / config
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Strict single-direction dependency, enforced by `import-linter` in CI.
|
||||
|
||||
## Why src layout (`src/everos/`)
|
||||
|
||||
- Standard PyPA project structure used when shipping to PyPI
|
||||
- Avoid namespace collision with system packages named `memory`, `infra`, etc.
|
||||
- Avoid accidental import of working-tree code in dev (PyPA recommendation)
|
||||
|
||||
## Comparable projects (where EverOS differs)
|
||||
|
||||
| Project | Position | Difference |
|
||||
|---|---|---|
|
||||
| [mem0](https://github.com/mem0ai/mem0) | API-first memory service | mem0 stores in vector DB; we store in md files |
|
||||
| [Letta](https://github.com/letta-ai/letta) | Agent OS w/ Core/Recall/Archival | Letta uses Postgres; we use markdown filesystem |
|
||||
| [MemOS](https://github.com/MemTensor/MemOS) | Multi-classification memory | MemOS targets enterprise; we target lightweight (single-user / small team) |
|
||||
| [memsearch](https://github.com/zilliztech/memsearch) | md-first search engine | Closest to us; we add memory extraction (not just search) |
|
||||
|
||||
## Roadmap
|
||||
|
||||
- **v0.1 (MVP)** — Phase 1 core loop: markdown + lancedb + cascade + episode extraction
|
||||
- **v0.2** — Full extraction pipeline (workspace / agent / knowledge), evolution framework
|
||||
- **v0.3** — Production hardening, full CLI, HTTP API, Obsidian demo
|
||||
- **v1.0** — Stable API, PyPI release, comprehensive docs
|
||||
- **v2** (future) — Edge-to-cloud sync via EverMe (separate project)
|
||||
|
||||
## Status
|
||||
|
||||
**Alpha — v0.1.0 in active development**. Core API may change before v1.0.
