Slash Command154 repo starsupdated 3mo ago

sync

The `/sync` command detects files modified outside Claude Code using git and updates CLAUDE.md incrementally without full recalibration. Use this after making manual edits to project files to keep your memory file synchronized with actual changes, rather than rerunning the complete calibration process.

Copy

mkdir -p ~/.claude/commands && curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/severity1/claude-code-auto-memory/HEAD/commands/sync.md -o ~/.claude/commands/sync.md

Then start a new Claude Code session; the slash command loads automatically.

Definition

sync.md

Detect files changed outside Claude Code and update CLAUDE.md incrementally.

Use this when you've edited files manually (outside Claude Code) and want to update CLAUDE.md without a full recalibration.

## Workflow

1. **Check if git repo**: Run `git rev-parse --is-inside-work-tree`
   - If not a git repo: Report error and suggest `/auto-memory:calibrate` instead

2. **Detect changed files using git**:
   ```bash
   git diff --name-only HEAD                    # Modified tracked files
   git diff --cached --name-only                # Staged files
   git ls-files --others --exclude-standard     # New untracked files
   ```

3. **Filter files** (exclude from processing):
   - Files in `.claude/` directory
   - Memory files: read `memoryFiles` from `.claude/auto-memory/config.json` (default `["CLAUDE.md"]`) and exclude any file whose name appears in that list
   - Files outside project directory

4. **If no changes detected**: Report "Already in sync - no manual changes found"

5. **If changes found**:
   - Convert paths to absolute paths
   - Write to `.claude/auto-memory/dirty-files` (one path per line, or `dirty-files-{session_id}` if session_id is available from the environment)
   - Use the Task tool to spawn the `memory-updater` agent with prompt:
     "Update [active memory file] for manually changed files: [file list]" (use AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md per the memoryFiles config)

6. **Report summary**: List files that were processed

## Notes

- Requires a git repository for change detection
- For non-git projects or full recalibration, use `/auto-memory:calibrate` instead
- The memory-updater agent handles the actual CLAUDE.md updates
