Excerpt

Memory — Persistent Context

Store and recall facts, preferences, and context across Claude Code sessions.

How It Works

Memory lives in ~/.claude/memory/ as plain markdown files. Read them at session start, write to them when you learn something important.

Directory Structure

~/.claude/memory/
├── MEMORY.md          # Key facts — always read this first
├── people.md          # People the user mentions (names, roles, preferences)
├── preferences.md     # User preferences (tools, workflows, habits)
├── projects.md        # Active projects and their context
└── journal.md         # Session log — append-only, dated entries

Session Start

At the beginning of every session, read ~/.claude/memory/MEMORY.md to load context. This file should be concise — under 100 lines.

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
