gobby vs remindb

gobby: Gobby is a local-first daemon that unifies AI coding assistants under one platform. It manages sessions, tasks, context, rules, and worktree orchestration. Features include a task system with dependency graphs and validation gates, an MCP proxy with progressive discovery, session handoffs, declarative rules, and worktree isolation.; remindb: remindb stores agentic memory in a single SQLite file. It parses notes into a structured tree with temperature tracking, enables efficient retrieval via FTS5 search, and supports versioning and summarization. This reduces token costs compared to re-reading raw files every session.
