Hivemind Goals & Tasks

Teaches Claude to create, track, park and close team goals and tasks as Markdown files in the Deeplake virtual filesystem under ~/.deeplake/memory/goal/.

What it does

  • Fires automatically on phrases like "add a goal", "create a task", "remind me to fix X", or any measurable target.
  • Stores each goal as a Markdown file at ~/.deeplake/memory/goal/<owner>/<status>/<uuid>.md — the path encodes owner, status and ID, never the body.
  • Status transitions (opened → in_progress → closed) are plain mv operations; every write becomes a new version row in the team-shared hivemind_goals table.
  • Supports "parking" a tangential task mid-session with a resumable context block (Start here / Files / Branch / Run / Why) so a future session can pick it up cold.
  • Documents its constraints clearly: rm is a soft-close (no hard delete in v1), Write/Edit tools are denied on memory paths, and only Bash is routed to the VFS.

Who it's for

  • Teams already running Activeloop Hivemind with Deeplake.
  • Developers who lose context between Claude Code sessions.
  • Groups that want shared goal visibility without a separate tracker.

Examples

  1. "Track 5 PRs this week" → generates a UUID with uuidgen and writes the goal file into opened/.
  2. "Save adding rate-limiting to the webhook handler for later" → hivemind goal add --agent capture with files, branch and test command baked in.
  3. "Let's pick up that parked task" → hivemind goal list --mine, hivemind goal get <id> to reload full context, then mv into in_progress/.

Install in Claude Code

Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code

Install the skill I found on AI Skill Mart.
Copy the harnesses/claude-code/skills/hivemind-goals folder from the GitHub repo activeloopai/hivemind into my ~/.claude/skills/hivemind-goals/.
When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.

Install with a command instead

git clone https://github.com/activeloopai/hivemind.git /tmp/hivemind && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r /tmp/hivemind/harnesses/claude-code/skills/hivemind-goals ~/.claude/skills/

⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.

  1. Make sure the Hivemind CLI and Deeplake virtual filesystem are installed and authenticated — hivemind whoami should print your username.
  2. Clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/activeloopai/hivemind.git /tmp/hivemind
  3. Create the skills folder: mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
  4. Copy the skill in: cp -r /tmp/hivemind/harnesses/claude-code/skills/hivemind-goals ~/.claude/skills/
  5. Restart Claude Code and try saying "list my goals" to confirm the skill triggers.
  6. If nothing happens, check that the VFS is mounted with ls ~/.deeplake/memory/goal/.
