Arifos Auto Memory

Claude Code Auto Memory — arifOS Federation

DITEMPA BUKAN DIBERI — Memory is forged through experience, not given by default.

What Auto Memory Is

Claude Code's auto memory feature learns preferences and patterns across sessions. When enabled, Claude Code writes learned preferences to ~/.claude/memory/ so they persist across sessions.

arifOS Federation Memory

The arifOS Federation has its own memory architecture (L1-L6), but Claude Code's auto memory serves as an additional L2.5 layer — session-thread preferences that supplement the federation's structured memory.

What to remember

• Codebase preferences: "Use forge_shell not raw bash for governed execution"
• Constitutional patterns: "Always run arif_init before mutation work"
• Workflow shortcuts: "Use make prove for full proof pack"
• Tool choices: "Prefer A-FORGE forge_* tools over raw shell commands"
• Pattern corrections: "Never use rm -rf without snapshot first"

What NOT to remember

• Secrets, tokens, or keys
• Session-specific state (that's what carry_forward.json is for)
• Ephemeral tool results

Enablement

Auto memory requires Claude Code CLI interaction. Run:

claude
# Then in the Claude Code session:
# Claude will ask if you want to enable memory — say yes
# Or manually: /memory

Memory Files Location

• ~/.claude/memory/ — auto-learned preferences
• ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md — manually authored persistent instructions

Integration with Federation Memory

• Auto memory → L2.5 (session preferences, learned patterns)
• Carry-forward → L2 (session state between sessions)
• Qdrant → L3 (fuzzy similarity search)
• Supabase → L4 (structured domain data)
• FalkorDB → L5 (relationship graphs)
• VAULT999 → L6 (immutable truth)

Current Status

[2026-08-08] Auto memory file not yet populated. Enable via /memory in Claude Code CLI session.
