## Overview

`git-notes-memory` provides a memory capture and recall system that stores memories as git notes with semantic search capabilities via sqlite-vec embeddings. It's designed to work as both a standalone Python library and a Claude Code plugin.

### Features

- **Git-native storage**: Memories stored as git notes that sync with push/pull
- **Semantic search**: Find relevant memories via sentence-transformer embeddings
- **10 memory namespaces**: inception, elicitation, research, decisions, progress, blockers, reviews, learnings, retrospective, patterns
- **Progressive hydration**: Load memory content incrementally (SUMMARY -> FULL -> FILES)
- **Concurrent-safe**: File locking prevents corruption from parallel captures
- **Secrets filtering**: Automatic detection and redaction of PII, API keys, and credentials
- **XDG-compliant**: Standard paths on all platforms

## Installation

```bash
# Using uv (recommended)
uv add git-notes-memory

# Using pip
pip install git-notes-memory
```

## Quick Start

```python
from git_notes_memory import get_capture_service, get_recall_service

# Capture a memory
capture = get_capture_service()
result = capture.capture(
    namespace="decisions",
    summary="Chose PostgreSQL for persistence",
    content="Evaluated SQLite vs PostgreSQL. PostgreSQL wins for concurrency."
)

# Recall memories
recall = get_recall_service()
memories = recall.search("database choice", namespace="decisions", limit=5)
```

## API Reference

### Core Services

The library exposes three primary service interfaces via factory functions:

| Service | Factory Function | Description |
|---------|-----------------|-------------|
| `CaptureService` | `get_capture_service()` | Capture memories with validation, git notes storage, and indexing |
| `RecallService` | `get_recall_service()` | Search memories using semantic (vector) or text-based queries |
| `SyncService` | `get_sync_service()` | Synchronize the SQLite index with git notes, verify consistency |

### Key Models

All models are immutable dataclasses (`frozen=True`) for thread-safety:

| Model | Description |
|-------|-------------|
| `Memory` | Core entity representing a captured memory (id, namespace, summary, content, timestamp, tags) |
| `MemoryResult` | Memory with similarity distance score from vector search |
| `CaptureResult` | Result of capture operation (success, memory, indexed, warning) |
| `IndexStats` | Statistics about the memory index (total, by_namespace, by_spec, last_sync) |
| `HydrationLevel` | Enum for progressive loading: `SUMMARY`, `FULL`, `FILES` |

### Common Operations

```python
from git_notes_memory import get_capture_service, get_recall_service, get_sync_service

# Capture with tags
capture = get_capture_service()
result = capture.capture(
    namespace="learnings",
    summary="pytest fixtures can be module-scoped",
    content="Use @pytest.fixture(scope='module') for expensive setup",
    tags=["pytest", "testing"],
)

# Semantic search with filters
recall = get_recall_service()
results = recall.search(
    query="database configuration",
    k=10,                    # max results
    namespace="decisions",   # filter by namespace
    min_similarity=0.5,      # minimum relevance threshold
)

# Sync and verify index
sync = get_sync_service()
sync.reindex(full=True)  # full reindex from git notes
verification = sync.verify_consistency()
if not verification.is_consistent:
    sync.repair(verification)
```

For complete API documentation, see the [Developer Guide](docs/DEVELOPER_GUIDE.md).

## Claude Code Plugin

When used as a Claude Code plugin, the following slash commands are available:

| Command | Description |
|---------|-------------|
| `/memory:capture <namespace> <summary>` | Capture a memory |
| `/memory:recall <query>` | Search memories semantically |
| `/memory:search <query>` | Advanced search with filters |
| `/memory:sync [full\|verify\|repair]` | Synchronize or repair the index |
| `/memory:status [--verbose]` | Show index statistics |

### Hooks Integration

The plugin includes hooks that integrate with Claude Code's hook system for automatic memory context:

| Hook | Description |
|------|-------------|
| **SessionStart** | Injects relevant project memories and response guidance at session start |
| **UserPromptSubmit** | Detects capture markers like `[remember]` and `@memory` in prompts |
| **PostToolUse** | Surfaces related memories after file operations (Read/Write/Edit) |
| **PreCompact** | Auto-captures high-confidence content before context compaction |
| **Stop** | Prompts for uncaptured content and syncs the search index |

See [User Guide](docs/USER_GUIDE.md#hooks-integration) for configuration options.

### Secrets Filtering

The plugin automatically detects and redacts sensitive information before storing memories:

```python
from git_notes_memory import get_secrets_filtering_service

# Scan content for secrets (dry-run)
service = get_secrets_filtering_service()
result = service.scan("API key: AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE")
if result.had_secrets:
    print(f"Found {result.detection_count} secret(s)")

# Filter (redact) content
filtered = service.filter("User SSN: 123-45-6789")
print(filtered.content)  # "User SSN: [REDACTED:pii_ssn]"
```

Secrets filtering commands:

| Command | Description |
|---------|-------------|
| `/memory:scan-secrets` | Scan memories for secrets (dry-run) |
| `/memory:test-secret <content>` | Test if content contains secrets |
| `/memory:secrets-allowlist [add\|remove\|list]` | Manage known-safe hashes |
| `/memory:audit-log [--since]` | View secrets filtering audit log |

Supported secret types:
- **PII**: SSN, credit cards, phone numbers, email addresses
- **Credentials**: AWS keys, GitHub tokens, API keys, JWT tokens
- **Cloud**: Azure, GCP, Stripe, Slack, Discord credentials
- **Entropy-based**: High-entropy base64/hex strings
