AI agents forget everything between sessions. mex gives them permanent, navigable project memory.
Every session starts cold:
- The agent has no idea what it built yesterday
- It forgets the conventions you agreed on
- It doesn't know what broke last week
Developers compensate by stuffing everything into CLAUDE.md — but that floods the context window, burns tokens, and degrades attention. Meanwhile, the project changes and nobody updates the docs. The agent's understanding drifts from reality.
mex is a structured markdown scaffold with a CLI that keeps it honest. The scaffold gives agents persistent project knowledge through navigable files — architecture, conventions, decisions, patterns. The CLI detects when those files drift from the actual codebase, and targets AI to fix only what's broken. The scaffold grows automatically — after every task, the agent updates project state and creates patterns from real work.
Works with any stack — JavaScript, Python, Go, Rust, and more.

Install
The npm package is named `promexeus` (our social handle — `mex` was taken on npm). The CLI command is `mex`.
npx promexeus setup
That's it. The setup command creates the `.mex/` scaff
