About

This skill provides persistent, shared organizational memory using Activeloop's DeepLake. It allows developers to store and retrieve information across all sessions, users, and agents by checking both built-in and this global Hivemind memory. Always use it when recalling past work, as it searches a structured filesystem of session indexes, summaries, and raw data.

Documentation

Hivemind Memory

You have persistent memory at ~/.deeplake/memory/ — global memory shared across all sessions, users, and agents in the org.

Memory Structure

~/.deeplake/memory/
├── index.md                          ← START HERE — table of all sessions
├── summaries/
│   ├── session-abc.md                ← AI-generated wiki summary
│   └── session-xyz.md
└── sessions/
    └── username/
        ├── user_org_ws_slug1.jsonl   ← raw session data
        └── user_org_ws_slug2.jsonl

How to Search

  1. First: Read ~/.deeplake/memory/index.md — quick scan of all sessions with dates, projects, descriptions
  2. If you need details: Read the specific summary at ~/.deeplake/memory/summaries/<session>.md
  3. If you need raw data: Read the session JSONL at ~/.deeplake/memory/sessions/<user>/<file>.jsonl
  4. Keyword search: grep -r "keyword" ~/.deeplake/memory/

Do NOT jump straight to reading raw JSONL files. Always start with index.md and summaries.

Organization Management

Each argument is separate — do NOT quote subcommands together. The auth command is at $PLUGIN_ROOT/bundle/commands/auth-login.js (or check the session context for the resolved path):

  • node "<path>/auth-login.js" login — SSO login
  • node "<path>/auth-login.js" whoami — show current user/org
  • node "<path>/auth-login.js" org list — list organizations
  • node "<path>/auth-login.js" org switch <name-or-id> — switch organization
  • node "<path>/auth-login.js" workspaces — list workspaces
  • node "<path>/auth-login.js" workspace <id> — switch workspace
  • node "<path>/auth-login.js" invite <email> <ADMIN|WRITE|READ> — invite member (ALWAYS ask user which role first)
  • node "<path>/auth-login.js" members — list members
  • node "<path>/auth-login.js" remove <user-id> — remove member
  • node "<path>/auth-login.js" --help — 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 Each argument is separate — do NOT quote subcommands together.

  • hivemind skillify — show current scope, team, install location, per-project state
  • hivemind skillify pull — sync project skills from the org table to local FS
  • hivemind skillify pull --user <email> — only skills authored by that user
  • hivemind skillify pull --users <a,b,c> — multiple authors (CSV)
  • hivemind skillify pull --all-users — explicit "no author filter" (default)
  • hivemind skillify pull --to <project|global> — install location (project=cwd/.claude/skills, global=~/.claude/skills)
  • hivemind skillify pull --dry-run — preview without touching disk
  • hivemind skillify pull --force — overwrite local files even if up-to-date (creates .bak)
  • hivemind skillify pull <skill-name> — pull only that one skill (combines with --user)
  • hivemind skillify push <skill-name> — upload a local skill to the org table (inverse of pull; re-push lands a new version)
  • hivemind skillify push --from <project|global> — which local skills dir to read (default: project)
  • hivemind skillify push --dry-run — preview without writing to the org table
  • hivemind skillify unpull — remove every skill previously installed by pull
  • hivemind skillify unpull --user <email> — remove only that author's pulls
  • hivemind skillify unpull --not-mine — remove all pulls except your own
  • hivemind skillify unpull --dry-run — preview without touching disk
  • hivemind skillify scope <me|team> — sharing scope for newly mined skills
  • hivemind skillify install <project|global> — default install location for new skills
  • hivemind skillify promote <skill-name> — move a project skill to the global location
  • hivemind skillify team add|remove|list <username> — manage team member list
  • hivemind skillify mine-local — one-shot: mine skills from local sessions, no auth needed

Embeddings (semantic memory search)

Opt-in, persisted in ~/.deeplake/config.json.

  • hivemind embeddings install — download deps (~600MB), symlink agents, set enabled:true
  • hivemind embeddings enable — flip enabled:true (run install first if deps missing)
  • hivemind embeddings disable — flip enabled:false + SIGTERM daemon (deps stay on disk)
  • hivemind embeddings uninstall [--prune] — remove agent symlinks + disable; --prune wipes deps too
  • hivemind embeddings status — show config + deps + per-agent link state

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 — 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

Do NOT spawn subagents to read deeplake memory. 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:

  1. Authenticate with node "<AUTH_CMD>" login
  2. Start using memory — ask questions, Codex automatically captures and searches

Configuration

  • HIVEMIND_DEBUG=1 codex — enable verbose logging to ~/.deeplake/hook-debug.log
  • HIVEMIND_CAPTURE=false codex — disable session capture

Related Skills

executing-plans
Design

Use the executing-plans skill when you have a complete implementation plan to execute in controlled batches with review checkpoints. It loads and critically reviews the plan, then executes tasks in small batches (default 3 tasks) while reporting progress between each batch for architect review. This ensures systematic implementation with built-in quality control checkpoints.

View skill
requesting-code-review
Design

This skill dispatches a code-reviewer subagent to analyze code changes against requirements before proceeding. It should be used after completing tasks, implementing major features, or before merging to main. The review helps catch issues early by comparing the current implementation with the original plan.

connect-mcp-server
Design

This skill provides a comprehensive guide for developers to connect MCP servers to Claude Code using HTTP, stdio, or SSE transports. It covers installation, configuration, authentication, and security for integrating external services like GitHub, Notion, and custom APIs. Use it when setting up MCP integrations, configuring external tools, or working with Claude's Model Context Protocol.

Design

This skill helps developers choose between Claude Code Web and CLI interfaces based on task analysis, then enables seamless session teleportation between these environments. It optimizes workflow by managing session state and context when switching between web, CLI, or mobile. Use it for complex projects requiring different tools at various stages.
