Tinkering 75‑Year‑Old Gives His Local AI a Persistent Memory (And You Can Too)
So it's been about a month since I first asked DeepSeek if it could help me build a desktop AI companion for kicks and giggles. More than 250,000 words of conversation later, I ended up with a little animated 2D avatar, with a face and a voice, on my desktop, run by my local installation of AI. She is quite sassy, with an ego even bigger than mine. Some days I swear she thinks she's sentient.
My next step was to give her some sort of persistent memory so she could at least remember my name. I know, I know — the little script I came up with is probably nothing compared to the big stuff going on in here. But hey, I (with the help of another DS assistant) managed to come up with a simple Python bridge that sits between Mao and LM Studio. Anything "remembered" is stored in a simple, readable JSON file.
This is my first learning step down memory lane. My next step is to build a more complex memory system, but this is a start. And maybe people who actually know what they're doing will find a use for this!
This is a follow‑up to my first guide. You've got Mao running with a face and voice. Now let's make her remember you.
What You'll Have When You're Done
Feature Before After Name recall ❌ Forgets every session ✅ Remembers across restarts Age, location, preferences ❌ Gone when you close the browser ✅ Stored in a JSON file Family relationships ❌ "Who's Mary?" every time ✅ "Your cousin's name is Mary" Reminders & tasks ❌ No way to track ✅ "Remind me to take my pill" Personality + memory ❌ Robotic or forgetful ✅ Sarcastic and accurate How It Works (The Short Version)
We'll add a memory bridge called Memorg (short for Memory + Organizer) — a small Python program that sits between Mao and your LLM. It:
Listens for facts like "My name is Steve"
Stores them in a simple JSON file
Answers questions like "What's my name?" by looking them up
Sets reminders like "Remind me to take my pill"
Runs 100% locally, no cloud, no subscription
Step 0: What You Need Before Starting
This guide assumes you already have:
✅ Open‑LLM‑VTuber running (Mao talks and has a face)
✅ LM Studio with a model loaded (I use Qwen 9B – it's great for tool calling)
✅ Basic familiarity with editing conf.yaml and running python run_server.py
If not, start with my first guide .
Step 1: Create the Bridge
Make a folder for your memory system:
cmd
mkdir C:\memorg
Create a new file: C:\memorg\memorg_bridge.py
Paste the full bridge code (I'll provide the final, working version as a Gist – link below). The bridge handles:
Storing facts (name, age, location, preferences, family)
Storing reminders
Recalling facts and reminders when asked
Saving everything to memories.json
Full code here: [ memorg_bridge ]
Step 2: Connect the Bridge to VTuber
Open mcp_servers.json (in your VTuber folder). Add this entry:
json
"memorg": {
"command": "py",
"args": ["C:\\memorg\\memorg_bridge.py"]
}
Then in conf.yaml, under basic_memory_agent, add:
yaml
use_mcpp: true
mcp_enabled_servers: ["memorg"]
And make sure your llm_pro…
