auto-sync
The `/nemp:auto-sync` command toggles automatic synchronization of memories to CLAUDE.md by modifying the `autoSync` setting in `.nemp/config.json`. Users invoke it with `on` to enable automatic updates during save, init, and forget operations, `off` to disable automatic syncing and require manual export or sync commands, or `status` to check the current configuration state. This integrates with the Nemp memory system for managing persistent Claude context.

# /nemp:auto-sync
Toggle automatic syncing of memories to CLAUDE.md.
## Usage
```
/nemp:auto-sync on # Enable auto-sync
/nemp:auto-sync off # Disable auto-sync
/nemp:auto-sync status # Check current status
/nemp:auto-sync # Show status (same as status)
```
## Arguments
- `on`: Enable automatic syncing to CLAUDE.md after memory changes
- `off`: Disable automatic syncing
- `status`: Show current auto-sync status (default if no argument)
## Instructions
When the user invokes `/nemp:auto-sync`, follow these steps:
### 1. Parse Argument
Extract the action: `on`, `off`, or `status` (default to `status` if empty).
### 2. Configuration File Location
Auto-sync config is stored in: `.nemp/config.json`
```json
{
"autoSync": true
}
```
### 3. Handle Actions
**For `on`:**
```bash
mkdir -p .nemp
```
Read or create `.nemp/config.json`, set `autoSync = true`, write back.
Confirm:
```
Auto-sync ENABLED
What happens now:
- /nemp:save -> CLAUDE.md updates automatically
- /nemp:init -> CLAUDE.md updates automatically
- /nemp:forget -> CLAUDE.md updates automatically
CLAUDE.md will always stay in sync with your memories.
```
**For `off`:**
Read `.nemp/config.json`, set `autoSync = false`, write back.
Confirm:
```
Auto-sync DISABLED
CLAUDE.md will not update automatically.
Run these manually when needed:
- /nemp:export (write memories to CLAUDE.md)
- /nemp:sync (two-way sync)
```
**For `status`:**
Read `.nemp/config.json` and display current state:
```
Auto-sync Status
Enabled: Yes/No
Config: .nemp/config.json
When enabled, these commands update CLAUDE.md:
- /nemp:save
- /nemp:init
- /nemp:forget
Commands:
/nemp:auto-sync on - Enable
/nemp:auto-sync off - Disable
```
### 4. Initialize Config (if not exists)
If `.nemp/config.json` doesn't exist, create it:
```json
{
"autoSync": false
}
```
### 5. Read/Write Config
Use the Read tool to check for existing config, then Write tool to update it.
**Reading config:**
```bash
[ -f ".nemp/config.json" ] && cat .nemp/config.json
```
**Merging config:**
When updating, preserve any existing keys (like `autoCapture`) and only update `autoSync`.
