PULSE8.ai Cortex MCP

An open-source knowledge layer for AI agents that provides Git-native memory, a typed knowledge graph, and MCP-powered retrieval on top of plain Markdown. It allows agents to build, evolve, and reuse persistent knowledge by reading, writing, searching, linking, and compiling knowledge without requiring a traditional database.
