What claude-mem is
Every time you start a new Claude Code session, Claude forgets everything. The file you fixed yesterday, the decision you made about your login page, the bug you already chased down. You explain it all again.
claude-mem fixes that. It is a free, open-source memory plugin for Claude Code with over 94,000 stars on GitHub. A plugin is an add-on you install into Claude Code. While you work, it takes notes on what Claude does, shrinks those notes down with AI, and hands the useful parts to Claude at the start of your next session.
- It remembers your past sessions, so you stop re-explaining your project
- You can ask about old work, like "what did we decide about auth?"
- Anything you mark private is never saved
- It runs on its own in the background once it's installed
