Knowledge Agent

Turns your claude-mem observation history into focused, queryable knowledge bases you can chat with.

What it does

Filters your claude-mem observation history into a corpus, loads it into an AI session (priming), and lets you ask questions conversationally.

  • build_corpus: filter by project, type (decision, bugfix, feature, refactor, discovery, change), concepts, file paths, semantic query, or date range
  • prime_corpus: load the whole corpus into an AI session
  • query_corpus: ask questions with follow-up context retained
  • list_corpora, rebuild_corpus, reprime_corpus: inspect, refresh with new observations, reset the session

Who it's for

  • Developers already accumulating work logs with claude-mem
  • Anyone writing retros or documentation ("all decisions from last month")
  • Teams needing to recover past context for a specific module fast

Examples

  1. Topic brain: build_corpus name="hooks-expertise" concepts="hooks", prime it, then ask "What are the 5 lifecycle hooks and when does each fire?"
  2. Monthly retro: filter types="decision" with dateStart/dateEnd and ask "Which decision carried the most risk this month?"
  3. Bug pattern review: types="bugfix" files="src/worker" to summarize recurring root causes in the worker service

Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code

Install the skill I found on Claude Skill Mart.
Copy the plugin/skills/knowledge-agent folder from the GitHub repo thedotmack/claude-mem into my ~/.claude/skills/knowledge-agent/.
When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.

Install with a command instead

git clone https://github.com/thedotmack/claude-mem.git && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r claude-mem/plugin/skills/knowledge-agent ~/.claude/skills/

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

  1. Make sure the claude-mem plugin is installed and running — this skill needs existing observation data to be useful.
  2. Clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/thedotmack/claude-mem.git
  3. Copy the skill folder: mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r claude-mem/plugin/skills/knowledge-agent ~/.claude/skills/
  4. Restart Claude Code.
  5. Test it with a prompt like "Build a knowledge base about hooks from my observation history".
  6. Run list_corpora to check status, and always prime a corpus before querying it.
