Where are my notes stored?

All notes are stored locally in your project directory within a file named .omc/notepad.md, ensuring your data stays private and accessible.

How does Priority Context differ from Working Memory?

Priority Context is limited to 500 characters and is always loaded at session start, while Working Memory stores timestamped notes that auto-expire after 7 days.

Will this skill increase my token usage?

It is designed for efficiency; the Priority Context section encourages brevity (500 chars) to ensure you don't waste your context budget while keeping essential facts handy.

What is conversation compaction in Claude Code?

Compaction is the process where Claude Code prunes older messages to stay within context window limits; the Note Skill saves important data externally so it survives this process.

Can I manually clear my notes?

Yes, you can use the --prune command to remove old entries or --clear to wipe the Working Memory while preserving your Priority and Manual notes.

Productivity & Workflow

Preserves critical project context and session notes across Claude Code conversation compaction cycles.

About

The Note Skill provides a robust mechanism for maintaining long-term memory within Claude Code sessions by saving essential data to a local .omc/notepad.md file. It solves the issue of 'context drift' where crucial project details—such as tech stack constraints, debugging progress, or team contact info—are lost when Claude reaches its token limit and prunes earlier messages. By utilizing three specialized storage tiers including Priority Context, Working Memory, and Manual sections, users can ensure that vital information is always injected into the session without manually re-explaining requirements.

Key Features

Automatic loading of priority context at the start of every session
Character limit warnings to optimize token usage and context efficiency
Conversation compaction resilience by persisting data in a local .omc/notepad.md file
2,142 GitHub stars
Multi-tiered storage for priority context, working memory, and manual notes
Smart pruning system to automatically remove outdated session notes after 7 days

Use Cases

Tracking debugging breadcrumbs and temporary findings that would otherwise be lost during context pruning
Persisting project-wide constraints like 'strict TypeScript mode' across long-running coding sessions
Storing permanent team references and deployment instructions for instant retrieval
