My Claude dreams at night and remembers everything. Better than mempalace.

Back in January I got tired of the same thing everyone complains about now you start a new session with Claude and it has no idea who you are. Every time. From scratch. So I built iai-mcp. A local daemon that captures every conversation, organizes it into three memory tiers, and feeds the right context back when you start a new session. No "remember this." No copy-pasting from old chats. It just knows.                                                        I've been using it daily with Claude Code since January. Five months.

4.7 makes more work than 4.6

For me and my business, 4.6 was the bee's knees. We fired OPEN AI, stopped using GPT in process tasks and moved a lot of our automation and workflow into 4.6. Today we went back to 4.6. 4.7 is burning us out in checks and balance. Its **WAY TO AGGRESSIVE** in making it's own decisions, moving forward with bad direction. What we missed was "before I continue" and some checks and balances. We burn context, tokens, credit, and tool usage insanely fast with 4.7 with about 50% error rate. Has anyone experienced this? I just did a switch to 4.6 3 hours into a large task that kept failing with 4.7...
