Lingshu (灵枢) is a brain-inspired persistent memory, persona and growth system for AI coding agents: pure Python standard library, zero dependencies, local-first, requires Python 3.9+. Hippocampus/cortex layered memory with forgetting curves, dream consolidation, fuzzy associative recall, emotion system, persona drift protection, knowledge base, self-authored skills, and a local web panel. Ships as a DSH bundled skill; the separately installable cordis startup-injector plugin auto-injects sessions only when Lingshu is installed at ~/.dsh/skills/lingshu (or brainPy is configured) and Python 3 is available; the optional update check contacts GitHub/Gitee.
Install
# from GitHub (first run asks for allowBuilds approval — follow the hint, retry)
dsh plugin --profile web add github:Q2667671398/lingshu-skill
Any plugin you install runs third-party code with your own permissions — it can read your files, use your credentials, and reach the network, and tool approvals don’t sandbox it. GitHub-sourced plugins also run build scripts at install time — pnpm blocks those until you allow them, so an install can stop with ERR_PNPM_GIT_DEP_PREPARE_NOT_ALLOWED or ERR_PNPM_IGNORED_BUILDS; dsh prints the exact key to add under allowBuilds in your profile’s pnpm-workspace.yaml, and the install works on the next run. Allowing a build is a trust decision: only install sources you trust, and pin a commit (github:owner/repo#sha).

Reads the session files forty-two other coding agents on this machine already wrote (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, VS Code Copilot Chat, opencode, OpenClaw, Hermes, Kimi, Cline, Zed and more), including sessions from before it was installed: six tools (deja_recall, deja_session, deja_blame, deja_fix, deja_how, deja_remember), a /deja command, and optional automatic recall added to the runtime context. Local BM25 index, no LLM, no embeddings, no network (dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-deja).
