Clear Memory

Clean up old session files and optionally reset facts.

Usage

/memory-keeper:clear-memory [all|old]

Actions

Archive old files (recommended):

node "scripts/counter.js" compress

This archives session files older than 30 days into monthly archives:

sessions/2025-10-15_0300.md -> sessions/archive/2025-10.md

Clear facts only:

node "scripts/counter.js" clear-facts

Clears all facts (decisions, patterns, issues, concepts) but keeps _meta.

Clear everything (manual):

WARNING: Destructive operation

# Remove all session files
rm -rf .claude/memory/sessions/*.md
rm -rf .claude/memory/sessions/*.jsonl

# Reset facts
node "scripts/counter.js" clear-facts

# Optionally clear memory.md
rm .claude/memory/memory.md

Recommendations

1. Regular maintenance: Run compress monthly
2. Before major changes: Create backup first
3. Keep hierarchical files: Don't delete project.md, architecture.md, conventions.md

Notes

• compress is non-destructive (archives, doesn't delete)
• clear-facts preserves counter state in _meta
• Archived files can be manually reviewed in sessions/archive/
