About
Motif is a self-hosted, Apache-2.0 licensed tool that turns Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor session history into one shared knowledge graph, queryable over MCP, so agents and teammates can retrieve what was decided, tried, or broken across past coding sessions instead of losing that context between chats.
At a glance
Motif collects coding-agent sessions into a self-hosted graph for recalling past decisions and extracting examples for evaluations. It is worth evaluating if multiple agents keep rediscovering the same project decisions.
Good fit
Teams willing to review shared agent memory and track where a recalled lesson came from.
Consider something else when
Keep sessions separate if transcripts or derived examples cannot be shared on your team’s server.
Start here
Import one synthetic session with an explicit correction. Check whether recall shows the source and whether a decision export includes only the material you intend to share.
Cost and requirements
Apache-2.0 project. The documented npm setup requires Node 22 or newer and a server you operate for shared use.
Limits to know
Transcripts can contain secrets and private code. Review selection and redaction settings before import, and check access controls and exported examples separately.
