Memory Bank
Plugin ActiveToken-efficient persistent memory system with 3-tier architecture, branch-aware context, smart compression, session diffing, session continuation protocol, and recovery mode.
To enable AI coding assistants to maintain consistent, long-term memory of project context, thereby reducing token waste and enabling longer, more productive sessions.
Features
- Token-efficient persistent memory system
- Layered architecture (Global, Project, Session)
- Branch-aware context management
- Smart compression and archival of memory
- Session diffing and conflict detection
- Recovery mode for memory reconstruction
- Session continuation protocol for seamless resumption
- Context budget tracking and warnings
Use Cases
- Maintaining context across multiple AI coding sessions without re-explaining
- Reducing token consumption on session warm-up by loading compact memory
- Switching between different feature branches with distinct project contexts
- Generating developer handoff documents from project memory
Non-Goals
- Storing or managing secrets or credentials
- Executing arbitrary code or commands
- Acting as a general-purpose file manager or system tool
Workflow
- Detect memory files and git context at session start
- Perform session diff to identify changes since last memory update
- Score memory health and greet user with summary and next step
- Update memory mid-session on explicit user commands or task completion
- Perform full memory write to MEMORY.md on session end
- Compress memory if it exceeds defined thresholds
