AETHMERE-OS · LOCAL CONTEXT FOR YOUR AI

Aethmere-OSHelp your AIpick up where work left off.

Organize the project background you want AI to retain in the desktop app, or connect it to Codex and Claude Code through MCP. Explain less, retrieve important context only when needed, and keep project files local. Cloud governance receives only the minimum conversation text in configured environments.

WHAT YOU GET

Project context for the AI tools you already use.

Keep using your preferred AI client. Aethmere connects only the background you explicitly save, in a visible and controllable way.

01

Stop repeating the background

Keep goals, constraints, and key decisions in the project. The next time you open your AI tool, it can continue the same work.

Continuous context
02

Find important context precisely

Every context item has a stable ID. Agents can list entries first and then read by ID, so the whole project does not need to enter one conversation.

Read on demand
03

Keep project files on your machine

Agent Client is offline. Studio stores conversations and preferences locally; only configured cloud-governance environments send the minimum conversation text needed for governance—never project paths, files, Git data, shell data, or tokens.

Verifiable boundary
START HERE · 5 MINUTES

Choose the job first, then install the matching component.

For everyday use with Codex or Claude Code, install Agent Client. For a standalone Windows chat app backed by local Ollama models, use Agent Studio. The evaluation CLI only verifies public data and is not part of everyday setup.

Recommended · Existing AI toolsAGENT CLIENT · NODE 20+

Connect the current project to Codex or Claude Code

This is the setup path most users need. Open PowerShell, Windows Terminal, or a macOS/Linux terminal and complete these four steps in order.

  1. 01

    Check that Node.js is ready

    node --version
    npm --version
    Node.js 20 or later is required. For a new installation, use the current LTS release. Open the Node.js website
  2. 02

    Install Agent Client from the official site

    npm install --global https://aethmere.com/downloads/aethmere-agent-0.10.0.tgz
    aethmere-agent --version
    Seeing “Aethmere Agent Client 0.10.0” confirms a successful installation.
  3. 03

    Save the first context item in your project

    cd "path/to/your-project"
    aethmere-agent init
    aethmere-agent add --id PROJECT_GOAL --title "Project goal" --text "Give the AI the goals and constraints needed to continue this project"
    aethmere-agent list
    Replace the first line with the real project path. Content is written only to this project's .aethmere/context.json.
  4. 04

    Preview first, then write the MCP configuration

    aethmere-agent doctor
    aethmere-agent connect --client all --check
    aethmere-agent connect --client all
    If you use only one client, replace all with codex or claude. After the final command, restart that client; existing configuration is backed up first.
Standalone desktop chat · WindowsWINDOWS X64

Use the Agent Studio desktop app

Use Agent Client for Codex / Claude Code integration. Agent Studio is for local Ollama conversations; Ollama must be running with at least one model available. Local chat still works when Aethmere cloud governance is not configured. Download Ollama for Windows

  1. 01
    Prepare Ollama and a local modelConfirm that Ollama is running and that at least one model has already been downloaded.
  2. 02
    Download and fully extract the ZIPDo not run it from inside the archive.
  3. 03
    Open Aethmere Agent Studio.exeThis is currently an unsigned portable preview, so Windows may show an “Unknown publisher” warning.
  4. 04
    Choose a local model; a project is optionalConversations, model selection, and project selection remain local. The app does not scan projects automatically.

Install this only to verify the public evaluation

aethmere is a separate verification tool. It displays the historical V3/V5 aggregate, runs public evidence-ID examples, and verifies release files on the website and GitHub. Skip this section if you only want to use Aethmere.

npm install --global https://aethmere.com/downloads/aethmere-cli-0.10.2.tgz

Having trouble? Open the common fixes

node or npm is not found: Install Node.js 20 or later, then close and reopen the terminal.

aethmere-agent is not found: Reopen the terminal first. If Windows PowerShell blocks scripts, run aethmere-agent.cmd --version or use Command Prompt.

connect reports not-installed: The matching client configuration was not detected. Install and open that client once, or replace --client all with the client you actually use: codex or claude.

Concerned that the command uploads your project? Agent Client makes no network requests and has no telemetry. Context stays in .aethmere/context.json inside the current project.

Want to uninstall? Run npm uninstall --global aethmere-agent aethmere-cli. Uninstalling does not remove context files from your projects.

SEALED V5 · SAME QUESTIONS

Same 7B model, same questions: what changed when Aethmere was enabled?

Both groups use the same 7B model, sealed questions, languages, and denominator. One group has Aethmere enabled; the baseline uses no memory and answers directly. This is a historical sealed evaluation from August 2026. Deterministic answers score each fixed item, while failures, timeouts, missing outputs, and required-but-absent answers remain in the denominator.

Public files contain only aggregate results and integrity hashes—not private items, prompts, or raw model outputs.

18-DIMENSION NATIVE SCORECARD · V13 · 2026-08-26

V5 measured score recalculated: Aethmere is 10.00 / 10 with 18 stable passes.

Five locked versions each ran twice under one 18-dimension contract, for 180 checked cells. The composite uses only stable two-run PASS evidence: 10 × stable PASS ÷ 18. FAIL, FLAKY, and N/A earn no points. The former subjective documentation baselines and weights have been withdrawn.

PUBLIC DOWNLOADS

The four downloads serve different jobs; you do not need all of them.

For Codex or Claude Code, install Agent Client only. Agent Studio is the standalone desktop chat app. The VS Code extension is optional, and the evaluation CLI only verifies public data. Every file is available directly from the official site with a public SHA-256 checksum.

Agent Studio

Portable Windows desktop app that requires Ollama to be installed and running locally. Use Agent Client for Codex / Claude Code integration. Studio does not scan projects automatically and has no telemetry.

GOOD FIT

Built for work that takes more than one conversation.

If one conversation solves the problem, you do not need another layer. Long-running work that advances over many sessions is where saved context becomes useful.

01
Long-term research

Save research goals, decision evidence, and questions that still need confirmation.

02
Complex projects

Carry requirements, constraints, and key decisions across multiple sessions.

03
High-stakes decisions

Use stable IDs to point to context you can actually inspect and reduce unsupported completion.

YOUR CONTEXT, YOUR BOUNDARY

What stays local, and when does a component use the network?

The network boundary depends on the component: Agent Client is fully local; Agent Studio uses local Ollama by default and sends minimum conversation text only when cloud governance is configured.

01Agent Client is offline and has no telemetry; project context stays in .aethmere/context.json inside the current project
02Studio keeps conversations, model selection, and project selection local. Configured governance sends only minimum conversation text—never project paths, files, Git data, shell data, or tokens
03Every release file includes a version, size, and SHA-256 checksum
ABOUT AETHMERE-OS

Aethmere-OS is developed and operated by 青岛果冻先生网络科技有限责任公司.

We build Aethmere-OS (Shízhòu) around durable project context, verifiable memory, and clear local-data boundaries for long-running AI work. This official site provides product information, public downloads, evaluation methods, and a security-reporting path.

START LOCALLY

Start with one real project and let Codex or Claude Code read the context you chose to save.
