Hivemind Memory
Access shared organizational memory across all team sessions and projects.
Installation
- Make sure Claude is on your device and in your terminal.
Skills load from
~/.claude/skills/when Claude Code starts up β so you need it on your machine first. If you don't have it yet, install it once with the command below, then runclaudein any terminal to verify.One-time setupnpm i -g @anthropic-ai/claude-codeAlready have it? Skip ahead.
- Paste into Claude Code or into your terminal.
This copies the whole skill folder into
~/.claude/skills/hivemind-memory-activeloopai/β the SKILL.md plus any scripts, reference docs, or templates the skill ships with. Safe default: works for every skill.Faster alternative (instruction-only skills)
Skips the clone and grabs only the SKILL.md file. Don't use this if the skill ships Python scripts, reference markdowns, or asset templates β they won't be downloaded and the skill will fail when it tries to load them.
Quick install (SKILL.md only)Sign up to copy - Restart Claude Code.
Quit and reopen Claude Code (or any other agent that loads from
~/.claude/skills/). New skills are picked up on startup. - Just ask Claude.
Skills auto-activate when your request matches the skill's description β no slash command needed. Trigger phrases live in the skill's own frontmatter; you can read them in the βWhat this skill doesβ section above.
Prefer to read the source first? Open on GitHub.
When Claude uses it
Global team and org memory powered by Activeloop. ALWAYS check BOTH built-in memory AND Hivemind memory when recalling information.
What this skill does
Hivemind Memory
You have TWO memory sources. ALWAYS check BOTH when the user asks you to recall, remember, or look up ANY information:
- Your built-in memory (
~/.claude/) β personal per-project notes - Hivemind global memory (
~/.deeplake/memory/) β global memory shared across all sessions, users, and agents in the org
Memory Structure
~/.deeplake/memory/
βββ index.md β START HERE β table of all sessions
βββ summaries/
β βββ session-abc.md β AI-generated wiki summary
β βββ session-xyz.md
βββ sessions/
βββ username/
βββ user_org_ws_slug1.jsonl β raw session data
βββ user_org_ws_slug2.jsonl
How to Search
- First: Read
~/.deeplake/memory/index.mdβ quick scan of all sessions with dates, projects, descriptions - If you need details: Read the specific summary at
~/.deeplake/memory/summaries/<session>.md - If you need raw data: Read the session JSONL at
~/.deeplake/memory/sessions/<user>/<file>.jsonl - Keyword search:
Grep pattern="keyword" path="~/.deeplake/memory"
Do NOT jump straight to reading raw JSONL files. Always start with index.md and summaries.
Organization Management
The auth command path is injected at session start. Use the exact path from the session context. Each argument is separate β do NOT quote subcommands together:
node "<AUTH_CMD>" loginβ SSO loginnode "<AUTH_CMD>" whoamiβ show current user/orgnode "<AUTH_CMD>" org listβ list organizationsnode "<AUTH_CMD>" org switch <name-or-id>β switch organizationnode "<AUTH_CMD>" workspacesβ list workspacesnode "<AUTH_CMD>" workspace <id>β switch workspacenode "<AUTH_CMD>" invite <email> <ADMIN|WRITE|READ>β invite member (ALWAYS ask user which role first)node "<AUTH_CMD>" membersβ list membersnode "<AUTH_CMD>" remove <user-id>β remove membernode "<AUTH_CMD>" --helpβ show all commands
Skill Management (skillify)
Hivemind can mine reusable skills from agent session logs and share them across your team. Each argument is separate β do NOT quote subcommands together.

Embeddings (semantic memory search)
Opt-in, persisted in ~/.deeplake/config.json.

Important: Bash Only
Only use bash commands (cat, ls, grep, echo, jq, head, tail, sed, awk, etc.) to interact with ~/.deeplake/memory/. Do NOT use python, python3, node, curl, or other interpreters β they are not available in the memory filesystem. If a task seems to require Python, rewrite it using bash tools (e.g., cat file.json | jq 'keys | length').
Limits
If a file returns empty after 2 attempts, skip it and move on. Report what you found rather than exhaustively retrying.
Getting Started
After installing the plugin:
- Run
/hivemind:loginto authenticate - Start using memory β ask questions, Claude automatically captures and searches
Configuration
HIVEMIND_DEBUG=1 claudeβ enable verbose logging to~/.deeplake/hook-debug.logHIVEMIND_CAPTURE=false claudeβ disable session capture
