Optimizes Claude Code memory files in 4 interactive steps: removes duplicates, migrates rules to CLAUDE.md/rules files, compresses remaining entries, validates with cleanup. Typical reduction: 30-50% on token count.

Plugin: [kochetkov ma/claude brewcode](https://github.com/kochetkov ma/claude brewcode) Memory Optimizer Optimizes Claude Code auto memory files in 4 interactive steps : removes duplicates, migrates rules to proper config files, compresses remaining entries, validates the result. Typical reduction: 30–50% token count in memory files. Auto memory stores context across sessions in ~/.claude/projects/ /memory/MEMORY.md . Enable: CLAUDE CODE DISABLE AUTO MEMORY=0 · Disable: CLAUDE CODE DISABLE AUTO MEMORY=1 Benefits: faster context loading · no duplicate rules · cleaner instructions · lower API cost Usage: Skill text is written for LLM consumption and optimized for token efficiency. Memory Optimizer Optimizes Claude Code memory files through 4 interactive steps. No context: fork — must run in main conversation to spawn agents. Phase 0: Load Context 1. Glob all memory files: ~/.claude/projects/ /memory/ .md 2. Read ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md and project CLAUDE.md (if exists) 3. Glob .claude/rules/ .md — read all project rules 4. Read ~/.claude/rules/ .md — read all global rules Build context map: Step 1: Analysis — Remove Duplicates (Interactive) Goal: Find memory entries that duplicate content already in CLAUDE.md or rules. 1. Spawn Explore agent to cross reference all loaded files 2. Identify entries where: Same rule already in CLAUDE.md Same pattern already in a rules file Contradicts CLAUDE.md (CLAUDE.md wins) 3. Show analysis: 4. AskUserQuestion : "Delete X duplicate entries (Y% of memory)? This is safe — content exists elsewhere." Options: "Yes, delete all" / "Review each" / "Skip this step" 5. Apply deletion using Edit tool if approved Step 2: Migration — Move to Rules/CLAUDE.md (Interactive) Goal: Identify remaining memory entries better suited to persistent config files. Decision tree (per entry): Applies to ALL projects + IS a rule/constraint → ~/.claude/rules/ Applies to THIS project only + IS a rule → .claude/rules/ IS an architectural decision → project CLAUDE.md IS a fact/pattern reusable across sessions → KEEP in memory 1. Show categorization: 2. AskUserQuestion : "Migrate X entries to rules/CLAUDE.md?" Options: "Yes, migrate all" / "Review each" / "Skip this step" 3. If approved: Create/append to target rule files via Edit Remove migrated entries from memory via Edit If target file doesn't exist, create it Step 3: Compression (Interactive) Goal: Compress remaining entries using LLM efficient formatting. Compression techniques: Prose → table row Multiple related entries → single table Verbose description → imperative one liner List of examples → pattern + one example 1. Show compression preview: Show 2 3 specific before/after samples. 2. AskUserQuestion : "Compress remaining memory? (~Y% reduction)" Options: "Yes, compress all" / "Skip compression" 3. Apply compression via Edit (bottom up order to preserve line numbers) Step 4: Validation (Automatic) Goal: Verify final state and clean orphaned references. 1. Spawn reviewer agent to verify: No broken file path references in memory files No contradictions between memory and CLAUDE.md Memory files are well formed markdown 2. Clean broken references (Edit tool) 3. Check for orphaned memory files (files in ~/.claude/projects/ /memory/ with no MEMORY.md reference) 4. Report orphaned files and ask to delete Final Report:
