kioku gives all your AI coding agents on all your machines one shared memory: sessions are
captured by lifecycle hooks, the next session starts with the previous handoff, and past
decisions are searchable (Japanese and English) through MCP. On Windows kioku runs as a
client of your own kioku server; join it with the one line `kioku invite` prints on the server.
