# Tages

**Team memory for AI coding agents.**

Your AI agents forget everything between sessions. Every decision re-litigated. Every convention re-explained. Every past mistake repeated by the next agent that touches the same code.

Personal memory tools patch the symptom: store some facts, retrieve them later. That works for solo developers who remember what they stored. It breaks down when teams ship with AI — when three developers are using agents on the same codebase, when onboarding requires transferring institutional knowledge, when the wrong memory survives a refactor because no one audited it.

Memory isn't storage. It's a team practice.

Tages treats codebase memory as a managed artifact: structured types, quality scoring, audit trails, sharpen passes that rewrite vague notes into imperative agent instructions. One developer's architecture decision becomes every agent's context. A bad memory gets flagged and corrected before it misleads the next session.

Start in under 60 seconds with one command. Add team features when your workflow demands them.

```bash
Claude MCP add tages -- npx -y @tages/server
```
