memory-keeper

Persistent knowledge management plugin for Claude Code. Automatically extracts insights from sessions, injects relevant context on startup, and provides search/save commands for cross-session memory.

Features

• Auto-capture: Session end hook classifies conversation into insights, tasks, or behavior corrections and saves them automatically
• Context injection: Session start hook loads project-specific knowledge based on your working directory
• Dual search: Keyword-first, then semantic search across your knowledge base (via QMD)
• Web research: Falls back to web search when local memory is insufficient, then persists findings

Setup

1. Install the plugin

claude plugin install popoffvg/claude-plugin-memory-keeper

2. Create the settings file

Create ~/.claude/memory-keeper.local.md with your configuration:

---
insights_root: ~/my/insights/path
log_level: DEBUG
---

This file is required. The plugin will not function without it — hooks will skip and skills will prompt you to create it.

3. Create the insights directory

mkdir -p ~/my/insights/path

4. Verify

Start a new Claude Code session. The SessionStart hook should load without errors. Run /context find — it should read your insights root.

Setting	Required	Description
insights_root	Yes	Root directory for all saved knowledge (e.g. ~/ctx/insights)
log_level	No	Logging verbosity for SessionStart hook (DEBUG, INFO, WARN). Default: DEBUG

Requirements

• Claude Code
• QMD MCP server — local search engine over markdown documents
• (Optional) Firecrawl MCP — for web research fallback

Commands

Command	Description
/context find <query>	Search saved knowledge by keyword or topic
/context find	Show full knowledge index
/context save <note>	Persist a specific insight or fact
/context check	Analyze current session for insights worth saving
/context research <topic>	Search memory + web, then persist results
/context scan [timeframe]	Scan recent session logs for missed insights (fallback for failed Stop hooks)
/context done [task-name]	Complete active task — summarize insights and distribute to repo folders

Hourly Scan (Cron)

To enable automatic scanning for missed insights during a session, run:

/context scan cron

This sets up a session-scoped hourly cron that runs /context scan automatically. The cron lives only in the current Claude session and auto-expires after 3 days.

How It Works

Session Start

1. Reads insights_root from ~/.claude/memory-keeper.local.md
2. If not configured — skips silently
3. Matches current directory to a project in <insights_root>/
4. Loads _summary.md (or INDEX.md fallback) into session context

Project Detection

Project name is derived from the git repo name (git rev-parse --show-toplevel | basename), falling back to the working directory basename.

Session End

1. Reads insights_root from settings — skips if not configured
2. Detects project from git repo name (fallback: cwd basename)
3. Checks for an active task in _tasks/pending.md
4. Agent analyzes the conversation and classifies it: insight | task | agent_edit | none
5. Saves to the appropriate location:
   • Insights (with active task) -> <insights_root>/_tasks/<task-slug>/notes.md (tagged with repo name)
   • Insights (no active task) -> <insights_root>/<project>/insights.md
   • Tasks -> <insights_root>/_tasks/pending.md + creates _tasks/<task-slug>/ directory
   • Agent edits -> <insights_root>/claude-config/behavior.md

Task Completion (/context done)

1. Reads task insights from _tasks/<task-slug>/notes.md
2. Generates a concise summary
3. Distributes summary to each repo's <insights_root>/<repo>/insights.md
4. Marks task as done in pending.md

Knowledge Search

1. mcp__qmd__search (keyword) on ctx collection
2. mcp__qmd__deep_search (semantic) if results are sparse
3. Fallback to z-core collection (Obsidian vault)

Knowledge Structure

<insights_root>/
  INDEX.md              # Global knowledge index
  <project>/            # project = git repo name or folder name
    _summary.md         # Project summary (loaded on session start)
    insights.md         # Auto-captured insights + task summaries
  _tasks/
    pending.md          # Task list (status: active | done)
    <task-slug>/        # Per-task directory
      notes.md          # Insights collected during task (tagged with repo names)
  claude-config/
    behavior.md         # Agent behavior corrections
