Building a Self-Managing Notes System for Claude Code

I got tired of Claude losing context every time a session ended, so I built a plugin that gives it a persistent, self-maintained notebook for each project.

What it does:

• Claude keeps its own notes on the project as it works (architecture decisions, gotchas, TODOs, etc.)
• Notes persist across sessions — no more re-explaining the same context every time you start a new chat
• Hooks into the Claude Code lifecycle to keep notes fresh and relevant automatically
• Lightweight, no external dependencies beyond Node

Would love feedback — especially if anyone tries it on a large/messy codebase and something breaks, or if the note-freshness logic feels off. Also open to feature requests.
