What it does
- Runs semantic search over persistent memories kept in
.claude/mind.mv2viafind.js. - Answers natural-language questions from past project context via
ask.js. - Shows memory statistics (
stats.js) and a timeline of recent entries (timeline.js). - Auto-classifies entries into 10 types: discovery, decision, problem, solution, pattern, warning, success, refactor, bugfix, feature.
Who it's for
- Developers tired of re-explaining project context at the start of every session.
- Teams that want decision history and troubleshooting notes shareable as one file.
- Anyone who wants a portable, Git-committable knowledge store.
Examples
node "$CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT/dist/scripts/find.js" "authentication" 5— pull the 5 most relevant auth-related notes.node "$CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT/dist/scripts/ask.js" "What was the CORS solution?"— recover a past fix from memory.- Hand
.claude/mind.mv2to a new teammate for instant onboarding on project history.

Install in Claude Code
Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code
Install the skill I found on Claude Skill Mart. Copy the skills/memory folder from the GitHub repo memvid/claude-brain into my ~/.claude/skills/memory/. When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.
Install with a command instead
git clone https://github.com/memvid/claude-brain.git && cd claude-brain && npm install && npm run build && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r skills/memory ~/.claude/skills/memory⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.
- Verify Node.js (18+ recommended) with
node -v. - Clone the repo:
git clone https://github.com/memvid/claude-brain.git - Install and build so the scripts exist:
cd claude-brain && npm install && npm run build(this createsdist/scripts/*.js). - Copy the skill:
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r skills/memory ~/.claude/skills/memory - Point
CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOTat the cloned repo directory, or register the project as a Claude Code plugin so the variable resolves. - Restart Claude Code and ask for "recent memories" to confirm
stats.jsandtimeline.jsrun without errors.
