About claude-mem
A Claude Code plugin that automatically captures everything Claude does during your coding sessions, compresses it with AI (using Claude's agent-sdk), and injects relevant context back into future sessions.
Claude-mem is an innovative open-source TypeScript plugin that revolutionizes how developers interact with Claude Code by adding persistent memory capabilities. This AI-powered tool automatically captures every action during coding sessions, compresses the data using Claude's agent-sdk, and intelligently injects relevant context into future interactions. By leveraging advanced technologies like embeddings, ChromaDB, and SQLite, it creates a sophisticated long-term memory system that remembers your coding patterns, project structures, and problem-solving approaches. Unlike standard code assistants, claude-mem transforms Claude from a session-based helper into a continuously learning partner that understands your workflow over time. The tool's integration with memory engines like mem0 and OpenMemory ensures efficient context retrieval through RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation), making it particularly valuable for complex projects requiring consistent context across multiple sessions. As a completely free GitHub-hosted solution, it offers professional-grade memory features without any cost barriers.
