Vestige fixes that.** Built on 130 years of memory research — FSRS-6 spaced repetition, prediction error gating, synaptic tagging, spreading activation, memory dreaming — all running in a single Rust binary with a 3D neural visualization dashboard. 100% local. Zero cloud.

New **`suppress`** tool applies top-down inhibitory control over retrieval — each call compounds a penalty (up to 80%), a background Rac1 worker fades co-activated neighbors over 72h, and it's reversible within a 24h labile window. **Never deletes** — the memory is inhibited, not erased. Based on [Anderson et al. 2025](https://www.nature.com/articles/s41583-025-00929-y) (Suppression-Induced Forgetting) and [Cervantes-Sandoval et al. 2020](https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7477079/) (Rac1 synaptic cascade). **24 tools · 30 cognitive modules · 1,284 tests.** <details> <summary>Earlier releases (v2.0 "Cognitive Leap" → v2.0.4 "Deep Reference")</summary> - **v2.0.4 — `deep_reference` Tool** — 8-stage cognitive reasoning pipeline with FSRS-6 trust scor
Agent that generates comprehensive documentation, API references, architecture diagrams, and developer onboarding guides from existing code.
Agent configuration for systematic bug investigation that traces issues from error logs through the codebase to root cause with suggested fixes.
Agent for integrating third-party APIs including SDK setup, type generation, error handling, retry logic, and rate limit management.
Cursor's built-in autonomous coding agent that can make multi-file edits, run terminal commands, search the codebase, and iteratively build features with minimal human intervention.
Cloud-based autonomous coding agent that runs in the background on remote sandboxed environments, handling complex multi-step tasks while you continue working.
Cursor's multi-file editing agent within Composer mode that can create, edit, and delete files across your entire project in a single conversation.
