## Quick Start
Install Claude-Mem directly from the plugin marketplace:
### Option 1: npx (Recommended)
Install and configure Claude-Mem with a single command:
```bash
npx claude-mem install
```
The interactive installer will:
- Detect your installed IDEs (Claude Code, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Windsurf, etc.)
- Copy plugin files to the correct locations
- Register the plugin with Claude Code
- Install all dependencies (including Bun and uv)
- Auto-start the worker service
### Option 2: Plugin Marketplace
Install Claude-Mem directly from the plugin marketplace inside Claude Code:
```bash
/plugin marketplace add thedotmack/claude-mem
/plugin install claude-mem
```
That's it! The plugin will automatically:
- Download prebuilt binaries (no compilation needed)
- Install all dependencies (including SQLite binaries)
- Configure hooks for session lifecycle management
- Auto-start the worker service on first session
Start a new Claude Code session and you'll see context from previous sessions automatically loaded.
