🌟 Why UCP?

The Problem: AI Context Amnesia

Modern AI coding assistants suffer from "session amnesia" - they forget everything when you close the chat. This creates significant productivity drains:

  • 20-30% of each session wasted re-explaining context
  • No memory of previous conversations or decisions
  • Fragmented knowledge across different tools and sessions
  • No team collaboration on AI context
  • Security risks from sensitive data in chat histories

The Solution

UCP provides a universal memory layer that gives AI coding assistants persistent, structured context across sessions and tools.

πŸ”§ Technical Stack

Component Technology Purpose
Language Stack TypeScript (primary) + Python (ML/AI) Cross-platform compatibility
Memory Server Node.js + Fastify + MCP SDK High-performance API server
Vector Storage pgvector (production) + ChromaDB (dev) Semantic similarity search
Graph Database PostgreSQL + Neo4j Relationship mapping
Cache Layer Redis Real-time context and sessions
MCP Bridge Anthropic MCP Protocol Universal AI integration
Git Integration Git hooks + APIs Version control sync
Build System Turborepo + PNPM workspaces Monorepo orchestration

πŸ“‹ Data Model

The UCP memory system uses a structured approach to store different types of context:

{
  "id": "uuid",
  "type": "TaskState|CommitDelta|ReasoningEntry|SummaryCheckpoint|BranchMeta",
  "project": "string",
  "task_id": "string|null", 
  "branch": "string",
  "timestamp": "ISO8601",
  "content": { /* structured per type */ },
  "status": "active|verified|archived"
}

Memory Entry Types

  • TaskState: Current work context, goals, and progress
  • CommitDelta: Code changes with semantic analysis
  • ReasoningEntry: AI conversations and decision rationale
  • SummaryCheckpoint: Compressed historical context
  • BranchMeta: Branch-specific context and relationships

🎯 Performance Targets

  • ⚑ Response Time: <100ms context retrieval
  • 🎯 Accuracy: >95% context relevance
  • πŸ“ˆ Scale: 10k+ memory entries per project
  • πŸ’Ύ Efficiency: <1MB storage per project-month

πŸ”Œ Integration Points

  • IDEs: VS Code, JetBrains via native extensions
  • AI Models: Multiple providers via MCP protocol
  • Version Control: Git hooks for automatic context capture
  • CI/CD: GitHub Actions, GitLab CI integration
