Introducing Chainlink: The Missing Memory Layer for AI-Assisted Development

Have you ever used an AI coding assistant like Claude, only to find that it forgets what it was working on after a long conversation? When you start a new chat or your context window resets, the AI suddenly loses track of its tasks.

That’s exactly the problem Chainlink solves.

Chainlink is a simple, lean issue tracker CLI designed specifically for AI-assisted development. It gives AI assistants a memory that survives between conversations.

What is Chainlink?

At its core, Chainlink is a to-do list for AI assistants. Whenever you ask an AI tool to build a feature or fix a bug, Chainlink provides it with a place to write down what it is working on, what is already done, what comes next, and any important notes to save for later.

By providing a persistent memory state, you eliminate the need to constantly repeat yourself and ensure seamless handoffs between sessions.

Key Features Built for AI Workflows

How It Works in Practice

Chainlink easily maps to your daily development cycles. When you sit down to work you can assign issues manually like this.

But keep in mind chainlink tells the agent how to use chainlink. Just run "chainlink init --force" in the code directory.

Try It Out

Chainlink is built with Rust and works out of the box with zero sync complexity—no git hooks, no auto-pushing required.

You can install it today via Cargo:

cargo install chainlink-tracker
