What Hopsule is
Hopsule is the persistent decision and memory layer for AI-assisted development. Architectural choices live as structured decisions; the why lives in memories. Capsules bundle the subset you want active. Brain is the interactive knowledge graph. Hopper is the in-app assistant that stays grounded in that context. Hopsule does not store your source code. It stores decisions, memories, and structural metadata your AI and IDE need, while the codebase stays in Git. Enforcement is advisory: Hopsule surfaces warnings and context when something conflicts with a team decision. It does not block merges, reject PRs, or auto-fix code for you. Humans decide; Hopsule informs. For how accepted decisions are stored immutably and how clients reflect them, see Decisions.At a glance
- Structured governance: decisions and memories in a durable layer, not lost chat history.
- Portable Capsules: one context pack for Cursor, ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, teammates, and automation.
- Warnings where you work: IDE add-on diagnostics plus MCP so agents read the same rules.
- Brain (knowledge graph): see how decisions, memories, tasks, and conflicts connect before you change course.
- Plugs into your stack: Web app, IDE add-on, MCP server, CLI tool, and GitHub App (repository-level sync). See Platform overview.
How it works
Capture and review decisions
You record decisions and memories. They move through review: Draft, Pending, Accepted, Deprecated. AI can propose; your team approves when someone has permission to advance the lifecycle.
Bundle Capsules
You group related decisions and memories into Capsules, portable context packs you activate per project or workflow.
Why teams adopt it
Faster iteration
AI starts from accurate, up-to-date context; less back-and-forth in every conversation.
Higher consistency
Output can align with accepted decisions across tools and developers.
Lower token burn
Fewer repeated “here is our stack” preambles; reuse Capsule-backed context instead.
