Fetch recent session history using the memory_sessions MCP tool with limit: 20.
Quick start
Call memory_sessions with limit: 20, render a reverse-chronological timeline.
Why
Get a quick overview of recent work across all projects without digging into individual sessions.
Workflow
- Call
memory_sessions with limit: 20.
- Present sessions in reverse chronological order.
- For each session: id (first 8 chars), project, start time, status.
- For sessions with observations, show type + title of key highlights.
- Note total observation count per session.
- If a summary exists, surface the title and key decisions.
Anti-patterns
WRONG -- filtering by project:
// session-history shows ALL projects. Use recap for project-scoped view.
RIGHT -- showing all sessions without project filter:
// Session list across all projects, clearly labeled by project name.
WRONG -- inventing sessions:
// No sessions? Say so. Don't fabricate.
MCP tool unavailable
If memory_sessions is not available:
- Run
/plugin list in Claude Code, confirm mempalace is enabled.
- Restart Claude Code (
.mcp.json is only read on startup).
- Check
/mcp to see if the mempalace MCP server is connected.
