Build and query AI-powered knowledge bases from claude-mem observations. Use when users want to create focused "brains" from their observation history, ask questions about past work patterns, or compile expertise on specific topics.

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?"

The knowledge agent answers from its corpus. Follow-up questions maintain context.

Step 4: List corpora

list_corpora

Shows all corpora with stats and priming status.

Tips

  • Focused corpora work best — "hooks architecture" beats "everything ever"
  • Prime once, query many times — the session persists across queries
  • Reprime for fresh context — if the conversation drifts, reprime to reset
  • Rebuild to update — when new observations are added, rebuild then reprime

Maintenance

Rebuild a corpus (refresh with new observations)

rebuild_corpus name="hooks-expertise"

After rebuilding, reprime to load the updated knowledge:

Reprime (fresh session)

reprime_corpus name="hooks-expertise"

Clears prior Q&A context and reloads the corpus into a new session.

  • AbabysitWatch a pull request or review cycle until it is ready to merge. Use when asked to babysit, monitor, or keep checking PR comments, reviews, and CI until all actionable issues are resolved.
  • Abackup-setupSet up, check, or restore local claude-mem database snapshots. Use when the user says "set up backups", "back up my memories", "backup status", or "restore my database".
  • AbuildFully automate a coding task with make-plan, do, and babysit.
  • Abuild-and-releaseFully automate building and releasing a coding task.
  • Accs-alignRun the CCS Align seat's hourly breathing cycle — prove the local claude-mem worker is healthy, pull needle observations through search → timeline → get_observations, land them in a seat-owned middle cache via atomic grab → append → filter exclude-marks → replace, manage exclude marks, and walk house → project → seat rules to detect conflicts (SHADOW_HOUSE, DENY_ALLOW, DRIFT, CLOCK_HEADER) with an append-only rules-report.md. Use when asked to run CCS Align, breathe the alignment seat, refresh the middle cache, exclude or restore an observation, walk rules, check rules conflicts, or check the Worker Watch board.
  • AchildhoodBabysit a shipped release after merge, publication, or deployment. Verify published packages, production behavior, installed plugins, and late CI or user reports until the observation window is clean; use babysit for PR readiness before release.
  • Aclaude-mem-installUse this when setting up claude-mem on Cursor: local or remote worker, local host-login observer or remote cmem.ai inference.
