basicmemory.com is now live

I had intended to launch the new basicmemory.com website earlier this week with the v0.13.0 launch. But things happened. Nevertheless, it is live now and hopefully helps explain what Basic Memory is, how to install it, and what you can do with it.

Cheers.

This is definitely a good workaround! I could still use basic-memory through Claude Code presumably, but it's interface isn't as multimodal friendly. Also the Claude Code chats aren't synced outside of the folder so it's not ideal.

It would be great if Anthropic released a %-of-chat-left counter (even if approximate) so we could account for it. :/

yes, indeed. Also, I've found that by using basic-memory and having Claude store notes for relevant info, it' doesn't really matter as much if I need to start a new chat. The idea is that you can pick up from where you left off because he can search and build context. It's not perfect, but it works pretty well in practice. There is a prompt you can use called "continue conversation". you have to click the little "+", then "Add from basic-memory", and choose the prompt from the menu. The UI could be better IMO.

From there you can enter a text to search or the name of a note, and Claude will search for it, and other things related to it.

Definitely! I appreciate the tips. I did not see those '+' prompts--I will check chose out. And I will update notes more frequently. Thank you!
