For Claude Code and Codex
See what your agents remember. Clean up what they shouldn't.
Claude Code and Codex save memories and load skills on their own, and CLAUDE.md files keep growing. Over time some go stale, some land in the wrong folder, some repeat or contradict each other. MindStash finds them, tells you why each one was flagged, and helps you clean up.

mindstash scan for a plain report or add --json for scripts and agents.
01 / how it works
Scan. Flag. Fix.
scan
Everything your agents load, in one place
Memories, skills, CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md, for Claude Code and Codex, globally and per project. The terminal UI opens with your last scan while it refreshes in the background.
flag
Every finding says why
Start with Stale. The preview shows the issue and confidence at a glance. Open a finding for the evidence, or switch to Token cost to see what loads each session.
fix
Delete, archive or move
Move a misplaced memory to the project where it belongs, or delete and archive stale notes. Review the plan first, then press u to undo a change.

02 / what it flags
Checks for memories, CLAUDE.md and skills
Each check has a confidence level, so you know which findings to act on first.
| Rule | Confidence | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Memories | ||
missing-project | high | Memories for a project folder that's gone. |
missing-path | high | Mentions a file or folder that no longer exists, checked against the repo's git files. |
past-event | medium | A date that was coming up when the memory was saved, and has now passed. |
version-mismatch | medium | Says "Node 16" while the repo declares 22 in package.json, .nvmrc, go.mod and the like. |
missing-skill | high | Says to run a /command that isn't installed. |
wrong-scope | medium | A note about one project saved in a parent folder like ~, so it loads everywhere. Can be moved. |
similar | medium–high | Near-duplicate memories. Suggested, never merged. |
relearned | medium | Looks like a memory you deleted with MindStash. The agent saved it again. |
contradiction | medium | Two notes that load together disagree, as judged by your own agent. |
| CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md and MEMORY.md | ||
instructions-too-big | medium–high | A CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md over ~4,000 tokens, loaded in full every session. Points at its biggest and log-like sections. |
broad-instructions | medium | A CLAUDE.md in a parent folder like ~ that loads in every project below it. |
agents-too-long | high | AGENTS.md files for a folder over the 32 KiB Codex reads. |
too-long · unindexed | high–medium | MEMORY.md over 200 lines, links to missing files, or memory files it doesn't list. MindStash can link those back in. |
| Skills | ||
skill-duplicate · skill-overlap | medium–high | A skill installed twice, or two skills that would trigger on the same request. |
codex-skill-budget | low | Codex skill descriptions past the listing budget Codex documents. |
03 / safety
Built to be trusted with your files
Asks first
Nothing changes until you confirm. Fixes only take finding ids from the latest scan, and refuse files that changed since.
Backed up in git
Every fix is saved to ~/.mindstash/backups before it runs. mindstash undo reverts it, and mindstash restore brings back anything archived.
Never rewrites a word
Look-alike memories are shown side by side. MindStash suggests a merge; you make it in your own editor.
Leaves your agents alone
Claude Code and Codex keep saving memory their own way. No new store, nothing to sync.
04 / from your agent
Or just ask your agent
One command adds /mindstash to Claude Code and $mindstash to Codex. Your agent runs the scan, checks each finding against the repo and waits for your OK. No API key: the agent you already use judges contradictions.
Optional: install-statusline shows what's new in Claude Code's status line, and install-hook adds a one-line note when a session starts. Both read the cached scan, so sessions don't slow down.
$
npx mindstash install-skill
> /mindstash ● Found a few things in the parcel workspace. 1. launch-checklist (~) is for a pilot that already ended. 2. label-api-v1 (~/work/parcel-api) points to a removed route. 3. parcel-api-conventions is global but only applies to the API. 4. The global CLAUDE.md loads old deployment logs every session. Archive 1 and 2, and move 3 into the parcel-api project? > Yes, show me the plan first. ● I'll show both archives and the move for you to review.
Run it once. See what's in there.
Nothing to install globally, no account. It reads your agent folders and shows you what it found.
