I built a persistent context system for Claude Code using Obsidian.

A developer built a persistent context system for Claude Code that uses an Obsidian vault as external memory, storing journal entries, unfinished tasks, commands, skills and scripts so new sessions can recover prior context and resume work. The project, published on GitHub as claude-obsidian-memory, includes a walkthrough and a session-recovery test demonstrating the setup.

I built a persistent context system for Claude Code using Obsidian.

The problem I was trying to solve was Claude starting new sessions without enough context from previous work.

The setup uses an Obsidian vault for persistent memory, journal entries, unfinished tasks, commands, skills and scripts. In a new session, Claude can locate the relevant files, recover the previous context, and continue from where I left off.

Repo: [https://github.com/seestack-dev/claude-obsidian-memory/](https://github.com/seestack-dev/claude-obsidian-memory/)

I also made a full walkthrough showing the setup and a session-recovery test: [https://youtu.be/gf8Bg71121c](https://youtu.be/gf8Bg71121c)

I built this myself, would be interested to hear how others are handling persistent context.
