Give Claude Code photographic memory.
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/b57cb3db-576b-4c1f-af92-95796ba3fb5b
The Problem
You: "Remember that auth bug we fixed?"
Claude: "I don't have memory of previous conversations."
You: "We spent 3 hours on it yesterday"
Claude: "I'd be happy to help debug from scratch!"
200K context window. Zero memory between sessions.
You're paying for a goldfish with a PhD.
The Fix
You: "What did we decide about auth?"
Claude: "We chose JWT over sessions for your microservices.
The refresh token issue - here's exactly what we fixed..."
One file. Claude remembers everything.
Installation
# One-time setup (if you haven't used GitHub plugins before)
git config --global url."https://github.com/".insteadOf "[email protected]:"
# In Claude Code
/plugin add marketplace memvid/claude-brain
Then: /plugins → Installed → mind Enable Plugin → Restart.
Done.
How it Works
After install, Claude's memory lives in one file:
your-project/
└── .claude/
└── mind.mv2 # Claude's brain. That's it.
No database. No cloud. No API keys.
What gets captured:
- Session context, decisions, bugs, solutions
- Auto-injected at session start
- Searchable anytime
Why one file?
git commit→ version control Claude's brainscp→ transfer anywhere- Send to teammate → instant onboarding
Commands
In Claude Code:
/mind stats # memory statistics
/mind search "authentication" # find past context
/mind ask "why did we choose X?" # ask your memory
/mind recent # what happened lately
Or just ask naturally: "mind stats", "search my memory for auth bugs", etc.
CLI (Optional)
For power users who want direct access to their memory file:
npm install -g memvid-cli
memvid stats .claude/mind.mv2 # view memory stats
memvid find .claude/mind.mv2 "auth" # search memories
memvid ask .claude/mind.mv2 "why JWT?" # ask questions
memvid timeline .claude/mind.mv2 # view timeline
