Memories

Claude Code’s auto-memory saves notes in projects/<name>/memory/, one Markdown file per memory, plus a MEMORY.md index that Claude reads at the start of every session in that project. The memories of your home folder’s project act as general memories: they load whenever you start Claude Code from your home.

Browse

Pick a profile and a project on the left. By default only projects with memories are listed; tick also show projects without memories to see every project, for example to pick a destination.

Each memory shows its name, type (user, feedback, project, reference) and description, taken from the file’s frontmatter. Two problems are flagged:

• not in MEMORY.md: the file exists but the index does not list it, so Claude may never read it.
• MEMORY.md lists files that do not exist: the index points to a deleted file.

Edit

Click a memory to open it in the editor. Save keeps the previous version in a backup.

Move

Move… sends a memory to another project, in the same profile or a different one. The line is removed from the source MEMORY.md and added to the target’s (created if needed). Moving fails if the target already has a memory with the same file name.

Typical uses:

• a memory saved in the wrong project
• a preference that is about you, not one project: move it to your home project so it applies everywhere
• a work memory that ended up in a personal profile

Delete

Delete removes the line from MEMORY.md and moves the file to the backup.

Good practice

• Memories that contradict the current code are worse than no memory: Claude follows them confidently. Delete memories about things you removed.
• When the same preference shows up in several projects, merge it into one memory in your home project.
• For context that must always apply in a profile (“in this profile you work for …”), use the profile’s CLAUDE.md instead: it is always loaded, while memories are recalled when relevant. See Settings.
