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.
Read the relevant context, then continue the current task.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
- 01
Check that Node.js is ready
Node.js 20 or later is required. For a new installation, use the current LTS release. Open the Node.js website ↗node --version npm --version - 02
Install Agent Client from the official site
Seeing “Aethmere Agent Client 0.10.0” confirms a successful installation.npm install --global https://aethmere.com/downloads/aethmere-agent-0.10.0.tgz aethmere-agent --version - 03
Save the first context item in your project
Replace the first line with the real project path. Content is written only to this project'scd "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.aethmere/context.json. - 04
Preview first, then write the MCP configuration
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.aethmere-agent doctor aethmere-agent connect --client all --check aethmere-agent connect --client all
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 ↗
- 01Prepare Ollama and a local modelConfirm that Ollama is running and that at least one model has already been downloaded.
- 02Download and fully extract the ZIPDo not run it from inside the archive.
- 03Open Aethmere Agent Studio.exeThis is currently an unsigned portable preview, so Windows may show an “Unknown publisher” warning.
- 04Choose 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

aethmere trialHaving 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.
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.
100.0% correct · 0 missing

These are historical sealed results for bounded tasks. They do not represent the current production version, this public client, open-world question answering, or accuracy on arbitrary questions. Public files contain only aggregate results and integrity hashes—not private items, prompts, or raw model outputs.
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.

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 Client
Save project context locally and connect it to Codex or Claude Code through MCP. This is the only component required for everyday integration; it makes no network requests and has no telemetry.

npm install -g https://aethmere.com/downloads/aethmere-cli-0.10.2.tgzaethmere-cli-0.10.2.tgz · 5.9 KBBuilt 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.
Save research goals, decision evidence, and questions that still need confirmation.
Carry requirements, constraints, and key decisions across multiple sessions.
Use stable IDs to point to context you can actually inspect and reduce unsupported completion.
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.
