I’m building Fixmind, a local-first MCP tool for developers
I’m working on Fixmind, an MCP tool for developers.
The idea is simple:
AI can help you fix a bug once, but that does not always mean you actually learn from it.
Sometimes you understand the fix in the moment, move on, and then repeat the same mistake weeks later in a slightly different form. Fixmind is my attempt to close that loop.
What Fixmind does
Fixmind helps turn AI-assisted fixes into lessons you can come back to later.
It can:
- remember repeated mistakes and fixes
- capture the root cause behind a bug
- save the lesson behind the fix
- ask a short follow-up question when more context is needed
- store lessons locally by default
- sync lessons across devices for Pro users
- help developers build a personal memory of what they learned from past fixes
Why local-first?
I’m keeping Fixmind local-first because I think most developers care about speed, privacy, and control.
I do not want developers to manually save notes after every fix.
I also do not want the tool to feel like another SaaS dashboard that only works after creating an account, connecting five services, accepting cookies, and sacrificing a keyboard to the cloud gods.
By default, Fixmind stores lessons locally.
The goal is to make learning from fixes feel automatic, private, and lightweight.
The workflow
A typical flow looks like this:
- You run into a bug
- Your AI coding agent helps fix it
- Fixmind captures what happened
- The root cause and lesson are saved locally
- You can review that lesson later when the same pattern appears again
So instead of this:
Bug → AI fix → forgotten
Fixmind tries to make it:
Bug → AI fix → saved lesson → reusable knowledge
What I’m trying to figure out
I’d love honest feedback from developers on a few things:
- Does this solve a real problem?
- Is remembering past fixes actually useful in your workflow?
- What would make you trust a tool like this?
- Is local-first with optional sync the right model?
- What kind of lessons would be worth saving?
- What would make this annoying instead of helpful?
The hardest part is not saving more.
It is saving only what is actually worth remembering.

If you’re a developer, I’d really appreciate blunt feedback.
