Total Recall is a Claude Code plugin that enforces a synthesis-first memory system so decisions and learnings persist across sessions.
About
Total Recall is a Claude Code plugin that implements an enforced synthesis-first memory system for developers who run multi-session agent work on real products. Instead of relying on whatever happens to stay in the context window, it is meant to capture decisions, learnings, and working context in a structured way and bring them back with progressive disclosure so each new session starts from accumulated understanding rather than zero. Developers shipping with Claude Code benefit when a feature spans days or weeks, when architectural choices must stay consistent, or when you rotate between validate, build, and operate tasks without re-explaining the same constraints. The plugin is not a generic notes app; it is agent-oriented memory wired into the Claude plugin model. Install it when you want continuity comparable to a lightweight project brain for the agent, with synthesis as the gate before anything is remembered. Pair it with your normal skills and MCP tools; Total Recall addresses the cross-session gap those tools usually do not solve on their own.
- Enforced synthesis-first memory: compress raw chat into durable summaries before storage
- Captures decisions, learnings, and context across Claude Code sessions
- Progressive disclosure so the agent surfaces relevant memory without dumping full history
- Single-plugin bundle (pluginCount: 1) focused on Total Recall behavior
- Community plugin aligned with disclosure-style memory keywords from the repo metadata

What it does
Install Total Recall so Claude Code keeps synthesized memory of decisions and learnings across sessions instead of starting from a blank context each time.
Who is it for?
Best when you're running long Claude Code threads on one codebase and need consistent memory of architecture choices and lessons learned.
Skip if: One-shot tasks finished in a single session or teams that already centralize memory in an external wiki with no agent integration.
What you get
After you register Total Recall, the agent can recall synthesized memory from earlier work so iteration continues from established decisions instead of from scratch.
- Synthesized memory entries the agent can reuse on later sessions
- Captured decisions and learnings tied to your Claude Code work
- Reduced re-briefing when you return to the same repository

How it compares
Session memory plugin for Claude Code, not an MCP server or a single-task codegen skill.
FAQ
Who is Total Recall for?
It is for developers using Claude Code on ongoing products who want enforced, synthesized memory across sessions without manually curating context files every time.
When should I use Total Recall?
Use it when you resume work after breaks, switch features mid-project, or need the agent to honor prior decisions without repeating long briefings.
How do I add Total Recall to my agent?
Add the Cygnusfear Totalrecall Plugin repository as a Claude Code plugin from the Skillselion catalog entry, then enable it in your Claude Code plugin configuration for the projects where you want cross-session memory.
