memory-management

memory-management is a skill for Claude Code from sun2443/designer-skills. It costs 54 tokens per session (2,206 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of memory-management, Apache-2.0.

A two-level workplace memory system for storing names, abbreviations, preferences, projects, and internal terms. It keeps frequently needed information in `CLAUDE.md` and fuller reference material in a `memory/` folder.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to maintain a glossary, people and project details, team context, and frequently used working preferences.
Why use it?
It helps an assistant understand shorthand and company-specific language that would otherwise be ambiguous. This reduces repeated explanations about people, projects, and acronyms.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

memory-management scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 13d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 324 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Memory Management

Memory makes Claude your workplace collaborator - someone who speaks your internal language.

The Goal

Transform shorthand into understanding:

User: "ask todd to do the PSR for oracle"
              ↓ Claude decodes
"Ask Todd Martinez (Finance lead) to prepare the Pipeline Status Report
 for the Oracle Systems deal ($2.3M, closing Q2)"

Without memory, that request is meaningless. With memory, Claude knows:

  • todd → Todd Martinez, Finance lead, prefers Slack
  • PSR → Pipeline Status Report (weekly sales doc)
  • oracle → Oracle Systems deal, not the company

Architecture

CLAUDE.md          ← Hot cache (~30 people, common terms)
memory/
  glossary.md      ← Full decoder ring (everything)
  people/          ← Complete profiles
  projects/        ← Project details
  context/         ← Company, teams, tools

CLAUDE.md (Hot Cache):

  • Top ~30 people you interact with most
  • ~30 most common acronyms/terms
  • Active projects (5-15)
  • Your preferences
  • Goal: Cover 90% of daily decoding needs

memory/glossary.md (Full Glossary):

  • Complete decoder ring - everyone, every term
  • Searched when something isn't in CLAUDE.md
  • Can grow indefinitely

memory/people/, projects/, context/:

  • Rich detail when needed for execution
  • Full profiles, history, context

Lookup Flow

User: "ask todd about the PSR for phoenix"

1. Check CLAUDE.md (hot cache)
   → Todd? ✓ Todd Martinez, Finance
   → PSR? ✓ Pipeline Status Report
   → Phoenix? ✓ DB migration project

2. If not found → search memory/glossary.md
   → Full glossary has everyone/everything

3. If still not found → ask user
   → "What does X mean? I'll remember it."

This tiered approach keeps CLAUDE.md lean (~100 lines) while supporting unlimited scale in memory/.

File Locations

  • Working memory: CLAUDE.md in current working directory
  • Deep memory: memory/ subdirectory

Working Memory Format (CLAUDE.md)

Use tables for compactness. Target ~50-80 lines total.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
