docs(faq): clarify Vestige vs Claude native memory compatibility
Address common question: users don't need to disable Claude's native memory to use Vestige. They're independent systems that can run simultaneously. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Claude's built-in memory (if/when released) will likely:
|
||||
- Be cloud-based (Anthropic servers)
|
||||
- Work across all clients
|
||||
- Be managed by Anthropic
|
||||
**No, you don't need to switch off Claude's native memory.** They're completely independent systems:
|
||||
|
||||
Vestige:
|
||||
- 100% local (your machine, your data)
|
||||
- Cognitive science-based decay and retrieval
|
||||
- Open source and hackable
|
||||
- Works now
|
||||
| Aspect | Claude's Native Memory | Vestige |
|
||||
|--------|------------------------|---------|
|
||||
| Storage | Anthropic's servers | Your local machine |
|
||||
| Control | Managed by Anthropic | You own everything |
|
||||
| Decay | Unknown/proprietary | FSRS-6 cognitive science |
|
||||
| Privacy | Cloud-based | 100% offline after setup |
|
||||
|
||||
They're complementary—Vestige gives you control and scientific sophistication; native memory gives you convenience.
|
||||
**They can run simultaneously.** Claude's native memory handles general conversation context, while Vestige gives you:
|
||||
- Explicit control over what gets remembered
|
||||
- Scientific forgetting curves
|
||||
- Codebase-specific patterns and decisions
|
||||
- Local-first privacy
|
||||
|
||||
Think of it like this: Claude's memory is automatic and general; Vestige is intentional and specialized. Many users run both.
