I don't see the advantage over a simple text file accessible by MCP. Could you elaborate?

Hey - agreed that for basic fact recall, a simple text file + MCP works fine.

We designed CORE for complex, evolving memory where text files break down.

Example: Health conversations across ChatGPT, Claude, etc. where your parameters change over time.

A text file can't give you: "What medications have I tried, why did I stop each one, and when?" or "Show me how my symptoms evolved over 6 months."

For timeline and relational memory, CORE wins. For static facts, text files are enough i guess.

I don't know this project, but the is probably simplicity/performance benefits to using a proxy over MCP as in theory there is less overhead.
