Last week we released kips, another utility for MCP clients like Claude Desktop. kips is a basic, opinionated personal data store. It allows you to store and tag passwords, notes, conversations, and tasks. Ingest with the CLI or just ask your model to transcribe:
We seek to increasing the "intuitive leverage" between humans and machines — to just "know" what to do and how to do it — and acknowledging the intuitive mechanism in generative models. For more information, see our blog post.

Meanwhile, careful readers of our website may have noted some changes — yes, we have some new faces around. Our mission has also changed, if only slightly. We're not just connecting and extending intelligence. We're building the infrastructure for intuition.
As we build out our next era, we've been working with the Model Context Protocol and built out a server for connecting Claude with your shell. It's as easy as running `npx mcp-shell`.
We'll have more to say when we exit a private preview with some design partners. If you'd like to try out the next iteration, contact @training_loop.

Wormholes form lateral transport. We entered our exploratory mode willing to reinvent anything so long as it perfected our mission to the broadest possible audience: to connect and extend new intelligence. We're happy to start discussing our first slate of changes:
In particular, we want to produce an explicit planning step across Nolita and the Index while also allowing local models to take a larger role in the core flow. We also have plans for complementary additions to the suite of products we have today.
Instead of passing API keys back and forth, set it one time. Nolita now uses `npx nolita auth` to set Memory Index and model provider keys for all interfaces and surfaces. Task runner, server, projects all refer to your stored credentials.
