Every new Claude chat starts from zero, so you end up pasting the same notes and re-explaining your project again and again. This free, open-source add-on, past 112,000 GitHub stars, fixes that. It saves short notes on what you and Claude did in each session and gives the right ones back to Claude the next time you start. You can also ask it about your past work in plain words, and it only pulls the notes it needs, so you use far fewer tokens.
Here's what it does, how to set it up in a few minutes, and what to watch out for.
What it does for you
- Saves notes on every session automatically: decisions, fixes, what was built. No copy-paste.
- Starts each new session with the context from earlier ones, so Claude knows where you left off.
- Lets you ask things like "what did we decide about pricing last week?" and finds the note.
- Pulls only the notes it needs (the project says about 10x fewer tokens than loading everything).
- Keeps your notes on your own computer; wrap anything in <private> tags to keep it out of memory.
