hmem vs matryca-plumber

hmem: hmem is a memory system for AI agents that persists project context across sessions, devices, and AI providers. It uses a 5-level lazy loading architecture to minimize token usage while retaining full details. It supports auto-logging, background checkpoints, and cross-platform sync.; matryca-plumber: Matryca is a headless MCP server and CLI that turns a local Logseq graph into an agentic workspace. It operates without network APIs or background desktop app, using atomic AST writes and X-Ray token compression. It provides spatial intelligence, sandboxed privacy, and zero-database lexical engine.
