Cognis for Claude Code
Claude-Cognis is a Claude Code plugin that gives Claude persistent memory across coding sessions. Relevant context loads automatically when you start a session, memories surface as you work, and your session is saved when you stop.

​
Features

  • Automatic context — Relevant memories load at session start. Claude already knows what you’ve been working on
  • Mid-session memory — As you work, relevant memories surface based on what you’re asking about
  • Session capture — Sessions are automatically summarized and saved with tool-aware compression
  • Session recall — Pick up where you left off with /claude-cognis:recall
  • Personal + team memory — Your memories are private by default; team knowledge is shared across everyone on the same repo
  • Semantic search — Find past decisions, patterns, and context using natural language
  • Codebase indexing — Store your project’s architecture so Claude understands your codebase from message one
  • Smart context assembly — Short-term and long-term memory intelligently combined for the most relevant context
