Persistia For Claude Code

Persistia

Self-updating persistent memory for Claude Code.

Give Claude Code the persistent memory it was missing and turn it into your operational co-pilot.

Claude Code has no operational memory. Every session starts from zero. You re-explain your stack, paste context, repeat yourself.

Persistia fixes that. On first run, it scans your entire project — code, docs, brand assets, financial models, marketing briefs, configs. Reads your .env files and uses credentials you already have. Stores everything in small, focused files with a navigation index. Then monitors changes via git diff: 1,000 files, 3 changed, it reads 3. Token-efficient by design.

The result: an agent that always knows your full project and stays up-to-date automatically — even as you ship new features, update your positioning, or revise your financial model.

Minimum input. Maximum output.

Install

Open Claude Code in your project root folder, then run:

Claude scans your project and asks only what it can't find. No forms. No config files. Just a conversation.
Requires: git · Node.js 18+
Optional: GitHub CLI (gh) — automatically creates a private brain repository with cloud backup on every update. Format your machine, git clone the brain repo, continue exactly where you left off.
Scheduler included: installs automatically (launchd on macOS, systemd on Linux).

How Persistia is different

Most memory systems dump everything into context every session — slow, expensive, and prone to hallucination as the project grows.

Persistia is built around three principles:

- Modular memory, loaded on demand — the brain is split into focused files by domain (product, brand, metrics, customers). Claude reads the index first and loads only what the current task needs. Nothing irrelevant enters the context.
