AI coding agents are currently built on a "Global Variable" anti-pattern that burns tokens and contaminates context. Memoir is an open-source version control system for agent memory that automatically syncs with your git branches - eliminating "token rent" and ensuring your AI respects your current workflow. The "global variable" anti-pattern Most developers work in branches to isolate work. But AI memory is usually global and flat. The CLAUDE.md trap. Using CLAUDE.md as a permanent memory is an anti-pattern. It's a giant global variable that grows until it chokes your context window.
