Vlk: MemAct for the IDE – persistent working memory agents can prune themselves

SMRTR summary

Vlk is a native MCP server that gives IDE coding agents (like Zed or Cursor) persistent working memory across sessions. It exposes a single tool — vlk_time_travel — that agents call to atomically prune dead memory slots from SQLite and inject lessons learned. This prevents failure loops, resolves contradictory outputs, and reclaims context window space without external controllers or fixed heuristics.
