Dev Remember
Derived from oh-my-claudecode (MIT, Yeachan Heo). Adapted for the EvoNexus Engineering Layer.
Quick context persistence for engineering sessions. Save decisions, gotchas, or patterns that should survive the current conversation but don't deserve a full memory entry in mempalace.
Use When
- A non-obvious decision was made that future-you needs to remember
- A gotcha was discovered (e.g., "this lib's v3 silently breaks auth")
- A pattern was confirmed (e.g., "we always use Result not exceptions in this module")
- Quick "remember this for next session" notes
Do Not Use When
- The note is already covered by an agent's memory folder → write to
.claude/agent-memory/{agent}/ instead
- The note is shared workspace knowledge → write to
memory/ (mempalace owns this)
- The note is ephemeral (current conversation only) → don't persist it
Storage Location
Engineering layer notes go to the relevant agent's memory folder:
- Architecture decision →
.claude/agent-memory/apex-architect/
- Bug pattern →
.claude/agent-memory/hawk-debugger/
- Test idiom →
.claude/agent-memory/grid-tester/
- etc.
If the note doesn't fit any single agent, save to workspace/development/research/[C]remember-{topic}-{date}.md.
Format
Each note has:
- Title (1 line)
- Why this matters (1-2 sentences)
- Context (when does this apply?)
- Reference (file:line, commit, or external link)
Mempalace Note
For long-term, cross-session, cross-agent shared memory, prefer mempalace:
- It has structured drawers, rooms, and wings
- It supports knowledge graph queries
- It survives across sessions natively
dev-remember is for engineering-specific quick saves. mempalace is for everything else.
Pairs With
- All 19 engineering agents (each has its own memory folder)
- mempalace (for shared workspace memory)
prod-memory-management (the Clawdia skill that owns shared memory)
