About iwe
IWE is a markdown-based memory system that organizes notes into a queryable knowledge graph. It transforms a directory of markdown files into a connected structure that can be browsed from an editor or queried by AI agents through command-line tools. The system uses plain markdown files stored locally, with version control compatibility through git.
IWE provides two main interfaces: editor integration with IDE-like features for markdown editing, and structured access for AI agents through CLI tools and an MCP server. The system is built in Rust and designed for speed, capable of processing large numbers of files quickly.
