Remembering Conversations

Search archived conversations using semantic similarity or exact text matching.

Core principle: Search before reinventing.

Announce: "I'm searching previous conversations for [topic]."

Setup: See INDEXING.md

When to Use

Search when:

  • Your human partner mentions "we discussed this before"
  • Debugging similar issues
  • Looking for architectural decisions or patterns
  • Before implementing something familiar

Don't search when:

  • Info in current conversation
  • Question about current codebase (use Grep/Read)

In-Session Use

Always use subagents (50-100x context savings). See skills/getting-started for workflow.

Manual/CLI use: Direct search (below) for humans outside Claude Code sessions.
