Store data permanently in the Cognee knowledge graph with category tagging.
Store data permanently in the Cognee knowledge graph with category tagging.
Cognee organizes knowledge into three categories via node_set tagging:
| Category | Node set | What belongs here |
|---|---|---|
| user | user_context | User preferences, corrections, personal facts, communication style |
| project | project_docs | Repository docs, code context, architecture decisions, company data |
| agent | agent_actions | Tool call logs, reasoning traces, generated artifacts (auto-captured by hooks) |
Determine the category from the user's intent, then run:
User data (preferences, corrections, personal context):
cognee-cli remember "$ARGUMENTS" -d "${COGNEE_PLUGIN_DATASET:-claude_sessions}" --node-set user_context
Project data (docs, code, company knowledge):
cognee-cli remember "$ARGUMENTS" -d "${COGNEE_PLUGIN_DATASET:-claude_sessions}" --node-set project_docs
Agent data (explicit agent notes — routine tool logs are automatic):
cognee-cli remember "$ARGUMENTS" -d "${COGNEE_PLUGIN_DATASET:-claude_sessions}" --node-set agent_actions
If the category is unclear, default to project.
The command outputs a summary after completion:
Data ingested and knowledge graph built successfully!

agent_actions tagging)| Signal | Category |

| "remember my preference for..." | user |
| "I always want..." / "I prefer..." | user |
| "remember this about the codebase" | project |

npx claudepluginhub topoteretes/cognee-integrations --plugin cognee-memorySearches Cognee knowledge graph and session memory by category (user/project/agent). Use when you need permanent graph results or filtered search beyond automatic session recall.
Stores decisions, patterns, best practices, and anti-patterns in a knowledge graph for future recall. Use /remember with flags like --success or --failed to track outcomes.
Manages persistent knowledge tree with namespaces for proactive recall, search, and organization across conversations. Activates on memory requests or technical topics.
