A catalog of ChatGPT & Codex plugins, sorted by people.
Honcho vs Waggle
Two Memory & Context tools whose own descriptions overlap (shared terms: preferences, persistent, decisions, memory). Here's what each project says it does and the public numbers, side by side, so you can pick one in a minute instead of reading two READMEs.
| Honcho | Waggle | |
|---|---|---|
| What it says it does | Persistent cross-session memory for Codex powered by Honcho — lifecycle hooks capture each session and inject relevant context back at session start, so Codex remembers your preferences, projects, and decisions across restarts. | Persistent graph-backed conversational memory for Codex that recalls project decisions, constraints, preferences, and outcomes across sessions. |

Who each one suits
Honcho, if…

So which one?
We haven't run both, so we won't crown a winner. Use the list above to rule one out, then read its README and recent commits before installing. Anything that runs commands on your machine deserves a look at the code.
