Folks, I’ve been building memy, a small CLI tool that remembers the files and directories you use most often and helps you jump back to them quickly.

It grew out of my long-time use of fasd (https://github.com/whjvenyl/fasd/) - which is now being maintained again after a long break - but memy evolved because I wanted something that better fit my workflow. I tried other tools in this space like zoxide and autojump, but I wanted something that could track both files and directories and act as a more flexible backend you can wire up to tools like fzf, cd, or whatever else you prefer.

memy is designed to be simple, scriptable, and shell-agnostic. It runs on Linux and macOS (limited macOS testing so far). I haven’t tested Windows yet, so if anyone gives that a go, I’d love to hear how it behaves there.

I’d really appreciate feedback on any rough edges, confusing docs, or ideas for integration — especially from folks who live in the terminal all day.
