Tells Claude to remember a specific fact for the rest of the conversation.

Before / After

Without /memory

Remember this for later: [fact].

With /memory

/memory My team uses Postgres 16 with pgvector. Always assume this stack.

What changes in Claude's response

Without /memory, Claude forgets context after ~5 messages — you'll find yourself re-explaining your stack on message 8. With /memory, the fact gets pinned and Claude references it consistently. Use it for stack details, naming conventions, and project constraints you'll keep coming back to.

When NOT to use /memory

Skip /memory for ephemeral details. Claude has limits on how much it can pin — don't waste the budget on stuff you'll only mention once.
