Why This Exists

claude-mem gives Claude persistent memory across sessions, storing observations (decisions, bugfixes, discoveries) in a local SQLite database. But it's designed for single-user, per-machine usage.

When a team works on the same project:

• Each developer has their own isolated memory database
• Developer A discovers a critical pattern — developers B through L never learn about it
• The same bugs get rediscovered, the same decisions re-debated
• There is no native team mode, no shared database, no automatic sync

claude-mem-sync bridges this gap with filtered, scored, deduplicated team memory sharing using git as the transport layer.
