What is Kenfold?

Kenfold is a free, open-source, self-hosted memory server for AI agents. It shares typed project memories over MCP so Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, ChatGPT and local models can keep context when you switch tools, instead of starting from scratch each time.

Third-party open-source projects. We are not affiliated with their authors; repositories are provided as-is by their maintainers. Review each project's license, code and security before installing. See our Disclaimer.

Pros: what Kenfold does well

  • Shared memory across coding agents
  • Self-hosted over MCP
  • Free and open source

Cons: where it falls short

  • Needs you to host and configure it
  • Most useful if you switch between several agents

Who Kenfold is for

Developers who hop between Claude Code, Codex and other agents and want durable project context.

Who can skip it

Anyone who sticks to a single AI tool with built-in memory.
