For two years, Guy Hutchins — a 73-year-old maker in Half Moon Bay, California — acted as the "Human Sync Port" for his AI agents. Every session, he'd manually copy conversation transcripts, paste context summaries back into fresh chats, and watch his agents forget everything the moment the window closed.
Then came OpenClaw, Rocky, and a $100 Claude subscription that changed everything. In one session, Guy, Rocky, and Opie (Claude) designed, built, and tested a lightweight cognitive coprocessor that actually worked. That coprocessor grew into Mnemo Cortex — and the rest of the constellation grew up around it.
