KevinZai Claude-Mem — Persistent AI Memory
Cross-session memory powered by SQLite + Chroma vector DB. Automatically captures tool usage, compresses observations into facts, and injects relevant context in future sessions.
Install
npx claude-mem install
This configures 6 lifecycle hooks (SessionStart, PostToolUse, Stop, etc.) and an MCP server.
Usage
After install, memory works automatically:
- Auto-capture: Every tool use is observed and compressed
- Auto-inject: Relevant past context injected at session start
- Search:
claude-mem search "auth patterns"— semantic + keyword hybrid - Web UI: http://localhost:37777 — browse all memories
Commands
claude-mem search "topic" # Search memories
claude-mem stats # Memory statistics
claude-mem export # Export as JSON
claude-mem web # Open web viewer
Integration with CC Commander
claude-mem complements CCC's built-in knowledge compounding:
- CCC knowledge: Task-level lessons (what worked, what failed, cost)
- claude-mem: Observation-level memory (every tool use, code patterns, architecture decisions)
Together they provide two layers of learning — strategic (CCC) and tactical (claude-mem).
