A catalog of ChatGPT & Codex plugins, sorted by people.
LLMSlim vs memtomem
Two Memory & Context tools whose own descriptions overlap (shared terms: long-term, recalls, 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.
| LLMSlim | memtomem | |
|---|---|---|
| What it says it does | Long-term memory for Codex with no LLM in the loop: a local MCP server stores messages word for word in SQLite and recalls the ones that answer a question within a token budget. | Markdown-first long-term memory for Codex that searches, recalls, saves and indexes project notes, and resumes work from a handoff another session or agent wrote. |

Who each one suits
LLMSlim, if…
- You use Codex or Claude Code: the project's own description or install command targets it.
- You want something you install yourself; the install command doesn't point at a hosted endpoint.
- You need a permissive license (MIT) for work or commercial use.
- You want a project that's actively being worked on right now.

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.
