  "account": "Multiple AI agents interacting through Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor each need to manually paste context into new sessions. OzBrain addresses this by creating a shared knowledge database accessible to all agents via the Model Context Protocol (MCP). When agents request information, OzBrain determines scope at write time: Personal data about users stays in personal brains, while team-wide knowledge lives in shared brains. Tags store metadata like creation date and freshness rating, enabling agents to decide whether the stored information is still valid. Topic-based indexing allows agents to query only relevant units without loading entire databases. When agents update the same knowledge unit, OzBrain uses a \"last-write-wins\" policy with conflict flags, rather than attempting to merge changes. This prevents silent contradictions from propagating. Shared memory can cause stale or contradictory context, but OzBrain flags aging units and does not auto-expire knowledge. The MCP API lets agents list available brains, query knowledge units by topic, write or read specific units.",
  "summary": "When you run multiple agents across Claude, ChatGPT, and Cursor, each one starts from scratch unless you manually paste context into every session. OzBrain solves this by exposing a shared knowledge substrate that agents read and write through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). The system routes context so agents see only what they need, and teams avoid explaining the same facts to every new agent…",
