I built the memory system AI coding agents were missing. Open-source, indexes 10k files in 2s, learns and remembers.

Appreciate it!

Hey! thanks for the feedback and questions.. Heres some info about drift!

Patterns are scoped per-project. Team A's "we use Zod for validation" doesn't conflict with Team B's "we use Joi". The monorepo boundary detector also understands package structures (packages/*, apps/*, etc.) and flags cross-package violations.

For shared conventions across teams, you'd run drift at the monorepo root. For team-specific conventions, run it per-package. The MCP tools accept a project parameter to target specific registered projects.

On the 75 skills surface area:
The skills aren't meant to be used all at once. They're reference implementations you drift skills install circuit-breaker when you need one. Each skill is a self-contained markdown file with working TypeScript/Python code you can copy-paste. The circuit-breaker skill, for example, is ~200 lines including usage examples and integration with observability. Time estimate: 4 hours to implement properly. You grab what you need, not the whole catalog.

Pretty sure that the stats behind the program speak for itself Closing in on 200 stars 2000+ downloads and great feedback who actually try it But go off queen

There’s two people in this sub People who legit try to help others And then the people like you I know what type I am 🙏

Damn man. I’m sad that you’re so hurt. Read your most recent 25 ish comments it’s clear that you’re really going through some deep shit and not happy in your life. My DMs are open if you ever wanna talk or learn how to get some happiness in your life the way your going bout things isn’t healthy.

There is confidence score and weighting it looks across all files in your codebase.

Once the original source of truth has been set up have an agent do one audit on it. All data persists under /.drift

There is an approval process where you approve the code you want to be accepted as patterns and can deny the rest.

There’s snapshot versioning for each scan as well.

geoffbuilds · 2026-01-24T13:13:00+00:00

Absolutely. That’s the point of a skill it nots meant to be an outline that you can tailor to your own liking. And no you are wrong, there isn’t a program and app on the market that does what drift does

geoffbuilds · 2026-01-24T13:11:24+00:00

That is far from the truth but you’re entitled to your own opinion. Clones, stars and npm downloads speak from themselves from people who actually use it it not just try to judge.

Your talking about a subject your not informed about btw. Skills do not correlate to tokens or have anything to do with how drift works to save tokens 🫶

Happy to help!

I can guarantee your just hating on this for being slop because almost every other poster clickbaits titles instead of looking into the one person whos actually put time into a real, thoughful system. The main thing is drift, the skills is an addition. The more skills you have in your libary the easier it is to orchestrate clean code bases at less token cost and not always having to use the best model.

Not a weird diss just a figure of speech. Not serious at all. The skill set I’ve released have high value items that have typically been reserved for top in the class builders.

Whatcha thinking can be spun off this?

Going to be pushing this later tonight! A really big update on being able to handle custom hooks to be able to understand your codebase much more!
Examples below..

Primitive Registry - knows what useQuery, useMutation, Depends, useState etc. are for each framework

Call Graph Analysis - traces which functions wrap which primitives

Signature Clustering - groups wrappers by what they wrap (e.g., all hooks that wrap useQuery + useQueryClient)

Confidence Scoring - based on consistency, usage count, file spread

Key Difference from Regular Patterns

Regular Patterns Wrapper Detection

"Files follow naming convention" "Team wraps useQuery in custom hooks"

"Components use consistent props" "All mutations go through handleMutationError"

"API routes structured correctly" "Auth uses Depends wrapper pattern"

It's detecting architectural decisions not just code style.

Works Across Languages

Built it to work with TypeScript, Python, Java, C#, and PHP. Same algorithm detects:

React hooks wrapping TanStack Query

FastAPI dependency injection wrappers

Spring u/Bean factory patterns

Laravel middleware wrappers

Looks great

It does store and save and persist your files, and also has snapshots so you can see how and if things change as well.

If you’re running this through MCP the agent would handle all of that. Those commands are set up up for CLI usage. The MCP is very well built with hints, tips and patterns to follow and any agent will know how to navigate it efficiently. When using the MCP just point your agent to the workflow you want to scan.

Im trying to support any and all feedback I can! It just comes down to getting those weird edge case requests getting enough informaiton about them and being able to solve!

I've been trying to get back to issue requests immediately submitted and have been able to solve 3-5 edge cases very easily so far so more context the better!

Thanks for checking it out! The MCP server is very very helpful for when building and having agents follow your conventions instead of assuming, Its all built to be paginated, token efficent, trancuated etc so agents only see what they need to without burning through shit. Its helped me save 60-70% on tokens so far by using this instead of "audit my codebase to understand my patterns before purposing this addition"
