On October 12, Hacker News featured Pensieve, a local search tool for Mac. It searches local files, code repositories and agent sessions, uses a local index to retrieve context, and returns relevant snippets with file line numbers to agents over MCP. The post says this cuts tool calls and token use when coding agents fetch context. No benchmark data or quantified savings are given.
