WIP design doc for modernizing the Claude Code plugin around the
"bridge between Claude auto-memory and Basic Memory" positioning.
- Reframes the plugin as connective tissue between Claude's working
memory and BM's durable graph (per docs/vs-built-in-memory).
- Defines the four core surfaces: SessionStart brief, PreCompact
checkpoint, output-style reflexes, deliberate skills.
- Leans on BM schemas + structured metadata search for deterministic
recall (ships session/decision/task picoschemas).
- Maps Claude Code projects to BM projects; team-workspace safety
(read-across, write-by-gesture); bootstrap interview.
- Records verified findings for 8 open questions (CC v2.1.153 /
basic-memory 0.21.5) from an investigate→adversarial-verify pass:
PreCompact 600s budget enables LLM summaries; metadata_filters
confirmed; path-scoped rules cut (don't load yet); commands are
plugin-namespaced; bootstrap via SessionStart sentinel.
