Show HN: Your self, in every light - a local-first MCP self model for AI agents

Category: infrastructure

Tags: mcp, agent-memory, local-first

Score: 7.3/10 (Innovation: 7, Technical: 8, Documentation: 7, Utility: 7)

Alma is a local-first MCP server that provides AI agents with a portable, consent-based self-model of a user's facts and preferences, stored in an append-only event log. Its innovative combination of agent memory isolation, scoped read access, and human-approval-driven writes fills a key gap in trusted agentic workflows. The project is technically solid with a Rust implementation, clear protocol schemas, and conformance tests.

Target audience: backend devs, ai engineers, devops
