home-memory vs Ombre-Brain

home-memory: Home Memory is an MCP server that gives your AI assistant structured, persistent knowledge about your home. It turns natural conversation into living, queryable documentation of your home and everything in it. You can document what exists, plan what's coming, and keep track of what's been removed.; Ombre-Brain: Ombre Brain is a long-term emotional memory system for Claude. It tags memories using Russell's valence/arousal coordinates, stores them as Obsidian-compatible Markdown, connects via MCP, and implements a forgetting curve. It features natural decay and active surfacing of unresolved memories.
