MemPalace (~53.6K stars) claims best-benchmarked, against mem0 (~57.8K) and claude-mem (~80.8K) (GitHub). Agent memory went from experimental nicety to a competitive subcategory with published benchmarks. Pair this with the local-first angle: Mnemo offers a Rust + SQLite + petgraph memory layer with no cloud dependency (GitHub). Portable, controllable memory is having a moment.
