Knowledge Agent
Build and query AI-powered knowledge bases from claude-mem observations.
What Are Knowledge Agents?
Knowledge agents are filtered corpora of observations compiled into a conversational AI session. Build a corpus from your observation history, prime it (loads the knowledge into an AI session), then ask it questions conversationally.
Think of them as custom "brains": "everything about hooks", "all decisions from the last month", "all bugfixes for the worker service".
Workflow
Step 1: Build a corpus
build_corpus name="hooks-expertise" description="Everything about the hooks lifecycle" project="claude-mem" concepts="hooks" limit=500
Filter options:
project — filter by project name
types — comma-separated: decision, bugfix, feature, refactor, discovery, change
concepts — comma-separated concept tags
files — comma-separated file paths (prefix match)
query — semantic search query
dateStart / dateEnd — ISO date range
limit — max observations (default 500)
Step 2: Prime the corpus
prime_corpus name="hooks-expertise"
This creates an AI session loaded with all the corpus knowledge. Takes a moment for large corpora.
Step 3: Query
query_corpus name="hooks-expertise" question="What are the 5 lifecycle hooks and when does each fire?"
