Could you build this?
Yes A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides CRUD and semantic search operations over a local vector database (like SQLite or Chroma) for persistent memory is a classic vibe-coding project.
Discussion

Concerns raised: Unverified recall benchmark claims (30% to 94%), Felt like another glue-and-hack solution, Coding agents wasting tokens re-reading codebases, Documentation/README looks like AI slop
Feature requests: Show measurement methodology for recall claims
