# Citation metadata for Mnemo.
#
# GitHub renders this as the "Cite this repository" widget.
#
# THERE IS DELIBERATELY NO `doi:` FIELD. Mnemo has no Zenodo deposit — a search
# of the Zenodo API for this project returns zero records — and a DOI is a
# resolvable identifier, not a formatting convention. A placeholder DOI in a
# citation file is worse than an absent one: it is a broken link that looks
# authoritative, printed by GitHub's own widget, and it would be copied into
# reference lists before anyone checked it. Add this field when a deposit
# actually exists, and not before.
#
# For the same reason there is no `preferred-citation:` block. There is no paper
# to redirect a citation to; this software IS the artifact being cited.
#
# `version` and `date-released` are asserted against the workspace by
# `scripts/check_citation_version.sh` in the `doc-guards` CI job. That guard is
# not decoration — the sibling agent-audit-kit repository carried the same two
# fields under a comment telling a human to bump them each release, which was
# duly obeyed until it wasn't, and the file sat ten patch versions behind what
# the repo was shipping. A citation that names the wrong version is a wrong
# citation.

  If you use Mnemo, or cite its audit log or the standalone chain verifier,
  please cite this repository.
title: "Mnemo"
abstract: >-
  MCP-native memory database for AI agents, written in Rust. Provides
  persistent, searchable, versioned agent memory with vector similarity,
  full-text search, graph relations, ACLs, at-rest encryption, per-request
  caller identity and capability-leased reads. Every memory write is recorded
  in a SHA-256 hash-chained, append-only log, and the repository ships
  tools/verify_mnemo_chain.py — a standalone verifier that depends on nothing
  but the Python standard library and imports no Mnemo code, so an auditor can
  check the log without running the vendor's software to do it.
