memory-bank-mcp vs claude-soul

memory-bank-mcp: The Memory Bank MCP Server provides a centralized service for managing memory bank files remotely. It supports multiple projects, ensures file structure consistency, and offers secure, isolated access via the MCP protocol.; claude-soul: Claude Soul gives Claude Code persistent memory across sessions, automatically tracks user corrections with lifecycle stages, and develops improved behavioral frameworks over time. It runs entirely locally using SQLite, integrates via MCP server and hooks, and requires no cloud or API keys.
