fai + Your AI Tool
The Missing Layer
Cursor is powerful. Claude Code is powerful. Copilot is powerful.
But they all share one problem: every session starts from scratch. You re-explain your project, your preferences, your patterns. Every. Single. Time.
fai is the layer that fixes this. It sits on top of your AI tool and gives it memory that compounds. It guides you through setup, generates your config files, and remembers everything across sessions.
What fai Does For Your AI Tool
| Your AI Tool | Without fai | With fai |
|---|---|---|
| Cursor | Manual setup, write .cursorrules yourself, re-explain context every session | fai guides setup, generates .cursor/rules/fai-context.mdc from your patterns, context persists |
| Claude Code | Manual setup, write CLAUDE.md, configure skills | fai guides setup, generates CLAUDE.md, skills emerge from your work |
| GitHub Copilot | Manual setup, configure settings, re-explain context every session | fai guides setup, maintains settings, context persists |
| Windsurf | Manual setup, configure AI preferences, re-explain context every session | fai guides setup, manages preferences, context persists |
fai doesn't replace your AI tool. It makes your AI tool dramatically better.
Context That Compounds
| Capability | Your AI Tool Alone | Your AI Tool + fai |
|---|---|---|
| Remembers across sessions | No | Yes |
| Learns your patterns | No | Yes |
| Compounds intelligence | No | Yes |
| Portable across tools | No | Yes |
| Generates config for you | No | Yes |
Every tool resets. fai compounds.
AI Flexibility
Your AI tool locks you to one provider. fai frees you:
- Switch from Cursor to Claude Code - your context follows
- AI has issues - switch agents with
fai --agent, your context is already there - Work offline - configure Ollama or LM Studio once via
fai synthesize - New AI tool launches - bring your full context
Your professional identity isn't locked to any vendor.
Portability
Other tools lock your patterns to their platform. Leave Cursor? Start over. Switch from Copilot? Your context is gone.
fai is different. Your workbench travels with you:
- Change AIs → context follows
- Change jobs → your patterns come with you
- Change tools → your decisions persist
Your workbench is yours. Leave anytime. Take everything with you.
The Real Difference
This isn't about features. Every tool will eventually add "memory" or "context."
The difference is what happens over 50 sessions:
- Intelligence compounds vs resets every session
- Config generates itself vs you write rules files
- Bring any AI vs locked to one provider
Your context is the differentiator. Not which AI you use - but what YOUR accumulated patterns, decisions, and professional identity bring to it.
