name: memory-save description: Execute when you see "[MEMORY_KEEPER]" in hook output. Follow the numbered steps exactly to save session memory.
Script Path Resolution
IMPORTANT: The scripts/ folder is in the plugin directory, NOT the current project.
From "Base directory for this skill:" above, derive the scripts path:
- Remove
/skills/memory-savefrom the end - Add
/scripts/to get the scripts directory
Example:
- Base:
~/.claude/plugins/cache/memory-keeper-marketplace/memory-keeper/13.8.3/skills/memory-save - Scripts:
~/.claude/plugins/cache/memory-keeper-marketplace/memory-keeper/13.8.3/scripts/
Use this full path when running node commands below.
Memory Save Skill (v13.1.0)
This skill activates when [MEMORY_KEEPER] appears in conversation.

Trigger Message
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
[MEMORY_KEEPER] AUTO-SAVE TRIGGERED - N tool uses reached
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Required Actions
Step 1: Save to memory.md
printf '\n## %s\n%s\n' "$(date +%Y-%m-%d_%H%M)" "[1-2 sentence summary]" >> ".claude/memory/memory.md"
Session End (Stop Hook)
Additional step (use full path from above):
node "{SCRIPTS_PATH}/counter.js" compress
Optional: Update Hierarchical Memory
If major project understanding changed, update stable memory files (use full path):
node "{SCRIPTS_PATH}/counter.js" memory-set project "Updated project description..."
node "{SCRIPTS_PATH}/counter.js" memory-set architecture "Updated architecture..."
node "{SCRIPTS_PATH}/counter.js" memory-set conventions "Updated conventions..."
When to update:
project.md: New project scope, goals, or tech stackarchitecture.md: New architecture decisions or patternsconventions.md: New coding standards or workflows
View current memory:
node "{SCRIPTS_PATH}/counter.js" memory-list
node "{SCRIPTS_PATH}/counter.js" memory-get project
Critical
- DO NOT SKIP the memory.md append step
- Counter resets automatically (no manual reset needed)
