What problem does it solve? Setting up a persistent memory layer for Claude Code involves many manual steps: connecting the MCP server, mapping projects, seeding note schemas, and writing configuration. This Skill replaces that with a short guided interview that infers defaults from context and applies a complete, verified configuration. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Guided configuration interview: Asks only what it cannot infer, covering project mapping, cloud/team workspaces, placement conventions, lifecycle capture, and output style. - Schema seeding: Installs session, decision, and task schemas into the chosen Basic Memory project without overwriting existing customizations. - Settings persistence and smoke test: Merges a basicMemory block into .claude/settings.json or settings.local.json, then verifies recall routing and hook health via CLI queries. - Use Case: After installing Basic Memory, run the setup once so every future session starts with a knowledge brief, automatic PreCompact checkpoints, and notes that land in the right folders. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to set up Basic Memory for this project and answer the short interview it runs.
