Sovereign Uploaded Intelligence
Cortex is the sovereign memory layer built on Sui, Walrus, and Seal. Keep durable encrypted memory, share it selectively, and turn it into prompts, loops, multi-agent workflows, and dreams.
AI should not forget you. Every time the session, tool, or model changes, your context disappears and you start over. Cortex fixes that at the substrate. It ingests notes, files, links, and media, distills durable memories from them, stores the artifacts on the Sui stack, recalls the right context later, and gets sharper over time through consolidation and correction.
What you can build
Commit notes, files, links, and media to sovereign memory
on the Sui stack. Walrus gives you durable storage and
Seal keeps every blob encrypted before it leaves the client.Specialist agents work over one shared memory graph. Spawn
loops from memory, hand off tasks, and run iterative
research, planning, and review cycles unattended.Cortex synthesizes patterns, weak signals, and long-horizon
insight from your graph, surfacing what matters before you
ask, not just what is already obvious.Pick your surface
Cortex ships as three surfaces over one memory plane. Start wherever you are.
| Surface | What it is | Start here |
|---|---|---|
| Cortex App | The Next.js product: capture, memory views, sharing, agents, dreams | App Overview |
| Core Runtime | The Cortex facade and CLI that run the full pipeline | Quickstart |
| MCP Server | The same memory plane, exposed to external agents and hosts | MCP Overview |
Get oriented
Install the workspace
Clone the repo and install dependencies with pnpm. See Installation.
Run the demo pipeline
pnpm demo seeds sources, runs consolidation, and verifies storage end to end, with no
credentials required. See Quickstart.
Understand the model
Learn how raw inputs become durable memories in How Cortex Works.
Go live
Wire Sui, Walrus, Seal, and MemWal for durable, encrypted, user-controlled storage. See Configuration.
Why it's different
- Memory, not chat history. Structured artifacts and durable state, not a transcript.
- Sovereign by design. Built on Sui with Walrus storage and Seal encryption, aligned with ownership instead of platform lock-in.
- Portable across tools. The same memory plane reaches the app, the CLI, and any MCP host.
- Self-improving. The elastic brain folds duplicates, fades weak signals, and promotes durable facts so memory stays useful instead of bloating.
