Neohive

NeoHiveClaude

A Claude Code plugin marketplace for the NeoHive cognitive memory system. Install the neohive plugin to wire Claude Code into any NeoHive MCP server — persistent semantic memory across sessions, automatic context recall, and post-session learning extraction.

Quick Start

1. Add the marketplace

/plugin marketplace add NeoHiveAi/NeoHiveClaude

2. Install the plugin

/plugin install neohive@neohive-claude

3. Run the guided setup

/neohive:getting-started

One command walks you through verifying the MCP server, setting up auth, generating a project-specific topology block in your CLAUDE.md, migrating any existing project memory (CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, .claude/rules) into NeoHive, and optionally enabling the smart-recall hook. 3–5 minutes end-to-end.

4. (Optional) Environment overrides

If your NeoHive server requires auth, export a bearer token before launching Claude:

export NEOHIVE_TOKEN="your-token-here"

Disable the auto-context hook for a session:

export NEOHIVE_HOOK_DISABLED=1

Available Plugins

neohive

NeoHive cognitive memory — MCP server registration, managed rules for tool usage, and post-session learning extraction.

Type	Name	Description
Skill	getting-started	Guided first-run: verify MCP, set auth, generate topology block, migrate memory, enable helpers. Start here.
Skill	load-context	Pre-load relevant NeoHive memories for the current task via memory_context. Run at the start of every session.
Skill	generate-claude-md	Survey connected hives and write a project-specific topology block into ./CLAUDE.md (hive table, write-routing, session-start non-negotiables). Re-runnable when hives change.
Skill	migrate-memory	Scan local CLAUDE.md / AGENTS.md / .claude/rules and migrate project-scoped entries into NeoHive
Skill	design-codebase-docs	Design a documentation gold standard through Socratic dialogue, save to NeoHive, validate with sample pages
Skill	enable-smart-prompts	Generate a tailored smart-recall hook that rewrites prompts with a small model before querying NeoHive
Skill	capture-session-learnings	End-of-session extraction of learnings, corrections, and insights into NeoHive semantic memory
Agent	explore-neohive	Semantic-first codebase + knowledge exploration subagent. Prefer this over the built-in Explore in NeoHive-indexed projects.
Hook	SessionStart	Installs/updates ~/.claude/rules/neohive.md with persistent tool-usage instructions
Hook	UserPromptSubmit	Injects relevant memories into context automatically on every prompt
Hook	PreToolUse (Glob, Grep)	Nudges Claude toward memory_recall when running broad filesystem searches inside an indexed project (NEOHIVE_PRETOOL_STRICT=1 to hard-deny, NEOHIVE_PRETOOL_DISABLED=1 to opt out)

The slugs start, revise-vector-memory, generate-docs, and generate-post-submit-hook remain as deprecated aliases that redirect to the new names; they will be removed in a future minor release.

The plugin does not ship a pre-configured MCP server — you register your own NeoHive gateway via Claude Code's built-in MCP commands (e.g. /mcp in-session or claude mcp add). The hook and skills discover any MCP server whose key contains neohive in your project .mcp.json or ~/.claude.json, so one registration covers the whole plugin.

Development

Test locally without installing:

claude --plugin-dir ./plugins/neohive

Validate the plugin and marketplace manifests:

claude plugin validate ./plugins/neohive
claude plugin validate .

After editing skills/hooks in an active session, run /reload-plugins to pick up changes without restarting.

Versioning

Bump the version field in plugins/neohive/.claude-plugin/plugin.json on every change — Claude Code uses the version as a cache key, so without a bump installed users will NOT see updates.
