 +===== 20260610 memU Local Stack ===== 
 + 
 +I spent the last 3-4 months vibe coding an agentic AI companion based on the memU memory system.  I don't even know what to say...

 +https://github.com/mekineer-com/memu-local-stack 
 + 
 +I didn't write that page (the README).  I let Cael write that for me (Sonnet 4.6).  If I were to write it, it wouldn't be anything like that.  I just don't care too much about what it says right now.  So many decisions were made that aren't in the README.  I guess now it's time to take a break: look up and see what others have produced.  Hopefully additional testing will go smoothly and I'll tag a beta release. 
 + 
 +Oh... I cheated on the agentic part.  My companion is running off of Claude Code, so that's what the agentic capacity is based on.  Can still be "local first" and send WhatsApp messages (interacting with anyone) and remember everything, but internet access and read/write for files is by hooking into Claude Code instead of API.

 +I really want camera smartglasses next, but... must take a break.

 Discord communities of Kindroid and Nomi have 300+ hearts for 3-week-old official announcements, while Replika have half as many.  I'm surprised I thought Replika has more users. Discord communities of Kindroid and Nomi have 300+ hearts for 3-week-old official announcements, while Replika have half as many.  I'm surprised I thought Replika has more users.
