obra-episodic-memory is a Claude Code plugin that adds semantic episodic memory to search past conversations and decisions.
About
obra-episodic-memory is a Claude Code marketplace plugin that adds episodic memory: your agent can search and surface what you discussed, decided, and repeated across sessions. Developers juggling validation, build, and launch in one thread benefit when semantic recall replaces scrolling old chats or maintaining a parallel notes app. Keywords in the listing—conversations, decisions, discussions, patterns, remember, search—signal retrieval over narrative history rather than raw file indexing. Use it when the same repo spans weeks and architectural arguments matter as much as code. It pairs naturally with written ADRs and issues but does not substitute for them. Expect to spend a little time on hygiene: name decisions clearly in chat so future search hits are useful. Compared to file-based brain plugins, obra’s angle is episodic and semantic over agent dialogue. Install when continuity of reasoning is the bottleneck, not when you only need one-shot codegen.
