Claude Memory

Instructions

Memory MCP is the ONLY memory system. All memories (facts, preferences, decisions, project context) MUST be stored and recalled via the memory_store / memory_recall MCP tools. Do NOT use the file-based auto-memory system (~/.claude/projects/*/memory/).
"remember X": Store via memory_store MCP tool immediately. For project-specific static info (commands, architecture), also update the project's .claude/CLAUDE.md.
Recalling: Always use memory_recall MCP tool to search for relevant context before responding to non-trivial requests.
Skills/agents: Create in ~/.claude/skills/ or ~/.claude/agents/, sync via chezmoi, commit to dotfiles repo.

When making changes to dotfiles (including Claude files in ~/.claude/), sync with chezmoi only if it is installed (command -v chezmoi):

Sync with chezmoi:
- chezmoi add <file> for new files
- chezmoi re-add <file> for updated files
Commit the changes in the chezmoi source directory:
- cd $(chezmoi source-path) && git add -A && git commit -m "<descriptive message>" If chezmoi is not installed, skip the sync steps and just make the changes directly.

When installing new Claude plugins or marketplaces, update these files:

~/.local/bin/sync-dotfiles-remote.sh - add new marketplace/plugin install commands
~/.local/share/chezmoi/run_once_after_install-claude-plugins.sh - add to chezmoi run_once script Then sync and commit both to chezmoi.

All Claude Code skills, agents, and hooks live in the dotfiles repo (~/.local/share/chezmoi/dot_claude/), synced via chezmoi.

Add new skill/agent: Create in ~/.claude/skills/ or ~/.claude/agents/, then chezmoi add ~/.claude/skills/<name> and commit
OpenClaw: Init container clones dotfiles repo and runs executable_openclaw-install.sh on pod start — no manual sync needed
After modifying skills/hooks: chezmoi re-add ~/.claude/skills && cd $(chezmoi source-path) && git add -A && git commit -m "update skills" && git push
