When to pick Memex
Zettelkasten-based persistent memory for AI coding agents. Auto-saves atomic knowledge cards with \[\[bidirectional links]] after tasks and auto-recalls before new ones. No vector DB — plain markdown files with git sync. Works as Claude Code plugin or MCP server for Cursor, VS Code Copilot, Codex, and Windsurf.
When to pick GitHub
Full GitHub access from Claude. Browse repos, read PRs, open issues, check CI runs, review diffs — without switching tabs.
