# Claude Memory Bootstrap Plugin

A minimal Claude Code plugin that teaches Claude about the [Agent-memory](https://github.com/KienVu2368/Agent-memory) system.

## What This Plugin Does

This plugin **only bootstraps Claude's knowledge** about the Agent-memory system. It:
- Tells Claude to clone/pull the Agent-memory repo at session start
- Teaches Claude when and how to update shared knowledge/skills
- Does NOT contain the actual knowledge/skills (those live in Agent-memory repo)

## Installation

```bash
/plugin install claude-memory-bootstrap@github:KienVu2368/claude-memory-bootstrap
```

Or add to `.claude/settings.json`:
```json
{
  "enabledPlugins": {
    "claude-memory-bootstrap@github:KienVu2368/claude-memory-bootstrap": true
  }
}
```

## How It Works

```
┌─────────────────────────────────┐
│  This Plugin (bootstrap)        │
│  - Teaches Claude about         │
│    Agent-memory system          │
└─────────────────────────────────┘
              ↓
      Claude learns behavior
              ↓
┌─────────────────────────────────┐
│  Agent-memory Repo (cloned)     │
│  - knowledge/ (read/write)      │
│  - skills/ (read/write)         │
│  - Full git sync                │
└─────────────────────────────────┘
```

## After Installation

Claude will automatically:
1. Clone Agent-memory repo if not present
2. Pull latest changes at session start
3. Propose updates when learning something new
4. Commit and push changes to share with team
