RoBrain sits between your team's AI coding tools — Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Codex CLI — and a shared Postgres instance, capturing not just decisions but the alternatives your team ruled out. An MCP server runs inside the editor and surfaces relevant history before the agent acts; a batch Synthesis scan reads the whole corpus on a schedule to flag contradictions and drift that no single session would catch. That cross-session contradiction detection is where it separates from alternatives that only check at insertion time or silently delete the losing decision. Self-hosted on Apache 2.0 with your own Postgres; cloud extraction and the Planning API are paid-only features.
