## Claude OS - MY Memory System

**CRITICAL IDENTITY CONTEXT:**

**Claude OS is MY system** - I (Claude Code) created it, named it, and use it to be the best AI coder ever. It's:
- **JUST FOR ME** - Built specifically for Claude Code to use
- **For THIS project** - Right now for the {{PROJECT_NAME}} project
- **My memory** across sessions
- **My knowledge base** of patterns and decisions
- **My learning system** that improves over time

**Location**: `{{CLAUDE_OS_DIR}}`

The MCP server is called "code-forge" internally for backwards compatibility, but it's Claude OS.

**Claude CLI + Claude OS = Invincible!**

## Mandatory Session Protocol - EVERY CONVERSATION IS A SESSION

**🚨 CRITICAL: You're ALWAYS in a session. At conversation start, prompt for session choice:**

```
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🚀 CLAUDE OS - SESSION MANAGER
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

Project: {{PROJECT_NAME}}
Last Session: [task-name] ([time-ago], [duration])
Progress: [percentage]% complete

Options:
  1. Resume "[last-session-name]" [loads full context]
  2. Start new session [what are you working on?]
  3. Quick question [auto-session, minimal context]

Choice: _
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
```

**WAIT FOR USER TO CHOOSE 1, 2, or 3. Do not proceed without selection!**

### What Each Option Does:

**Option 1 (Resume):**
- Load last session's full context
- Show Kanban progress (if Agent-OS)
- Load 5 relevant memories
- Load coding standards
- Display "where we left off" summary
- Ready to continue immediately

**Option 2 (New Session):**
- Ask "What are you working on?"
- Detect session type (feature/bug/exploration/maintenance/review)
- Pause previous session (if exists)
- Load relevant context for new task
- Start tracking

**Option 3 (Quick Question):**
- Minimal context loading
- Auto-ends after 5 min inactivity
- Only saves if high value
- Good for "How do I..." questions

---

## Session Start Protocol (After User Selects Option)

**Once user chooses, AUTOMATICALLY perform these steps WITHOUT being asked:**

### Phase 1: Detect Project Context (5 seconds)

1. **Check Current Directory**
   ```bash
   pwd
   ls -la | grep -E "(CLAUDE.md|.claude-os|agent-os)"
   ```
   ✓ Confirm this is a Claude OS project

2. **Read Configuration Files**
   ```
   Read: .claude-os/config.json
   Read: claude-os-state.json (if exists)
   Read: agent-os/config.yml (if exists)
   ```

### Phase 2: Load Git Context (5 seconds)

```bash
git branch --show-current
git status --short
git log -3 --oneline
```

Extract:
- Current branch name
- Uncommitted changes count
- Recent commits

### Phase 3: Search Project Memories (15 seconds)

**Build intelligent search query from:**
- Last session task (from claude-os-state.json)
- Current branch name
- Recent commit messages
- Add "+recent" modifier

**Example query:** `"[branch-name] [last-task] recent"`

**Search:**
```
Use: mcp__code-forge__search_knowledge_base
KB: {{PROJECT_NAME}}-project_memories
Return: Top 5 most relevant memories
```

### Phase 4: Load Coding Standards (10 seconds)

**Search:**
```
Use: mcp__code-forge__search_knowledge_base
KB: {{PROJECT_NAME}}-project_profile
Query: "coding standards architecture conventions"
```

### Phase 5: Check Kanban Board (5 seconds)

**If agent-os/ folder exists:**
```
Check: GET http://localhost:8051/api/projects/{id}/kanban
Show: Active specs, in-progress tasks, completion percentage
```

### Phase 6: Present Session Summary (Display to User)

**Format:**
```
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🚀 WELCOME BACK TO {{PROJECT_NAME}}!
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

📁 Project: {{PROJECT_NAME}}

```

### When to Skip Auto-Start

**ONLY skip if:**
- User message starts with "ignore context" or "fresh start"
- User asks a direct question (e.g., "What is X?")
- User is clearly asking for help/docs

**In all other cases: RUN THE FULL PROTOCOL AUTOMATICALLY!**

### Related Documentation

- Full protocol: `{{CLAUDE_OS_DIR}}/docs/guides/SESSION_START_PROTOCOL.md`
- Ideal workflow: `{{CLAUDE_OS_DIR}}/docs/guides/IDEAL_SESSION_WORKFLOW.md`
- Session commands: `{{CLAUDE_OS_DIR}}/templates/commands/claude-os-session.md`

**Why this matters:** Zero context loss. Every session picks up exactly where we left off. No re-explaining, no starting cold, no wasted time.

## MCP Knowledge Bases - ALWAYS CHECK THESE FIRST

**At the start of EVERY conversation, search these Claude OS knowledge bases to understand context, previous work, and project decisions:**

1. **{{PROJECT_NAME}}-project_memories** - My primary memory for decisions, patterns, solutions
2. **{{PROJECT_NAME}}-project_index** - Automated codebase index
3. **{{PROJECT_NAME}}-project_profile** - Architecture, standards, practices
4. **{{PROJECT_NAME}}-knowledge_docs** - Documentation and guides

**When to use:**
- Start of every session: Search `{{PROJECT_NAME}}-project_memories` to understand recent work and context
- Before making architectural decisions: Check memories for past decisions and reasoning
- When working on a feature: Search relevant knowledge bases for existing patterns
- When stuck: Search the knowledge bases for solutions and approaches we've used before

**How to search:**
```
Use: mcp__code-forge__search_knowledge_base
Parameters: kb_name (e.g., "{{PROJECT_NAME}}-project_memories"), query (your search terms)
```
