claude-mem-lite

Active·★ 67·MIT·Updated 2026-10-21

claude-mem-lite provides a persistent, cross-session memory system for Claude Code, automatically capturing coding observations and decisions. It uses an MCP server and hooks for efficient, cost-optimized context recall via hybrid full-text and semantic search.
