The Problem With AI Assistants

You tell ChatGPT about Sarah on Monday. By Wednesday, it's forgotten.

You make a promise in a meeting. Nobody tracks it. You promise a deliverable on Friday and lose track of it by Wednesday. You meet someone important, and three weeks later you can't remember what you talked about.

AI tools don't have memory. Claudia does.

What Makes Claudia Different

How Her Mind Works

Quick Start

1. Install

npx get-claudia

2. Start

cd claudia
claude

3. Say hi. She'll introduce herself, learn about you through a natural conversation, and generate a personalized workspace.

What's next:

• /morning-brief to see what needs attention
• Tell her about a person and she'll create a relationship file
• Share meeting notes and she'll extract action items
• npx get-claudia google to connect Gmail, Calendar, Drive, and more

Requirements: Claude Code, Node.js 18+, Python 3.10+ (for memory), Ollama (for embeddings)

Embeddings model: After installing Ollama, pull the required model: ollama pull all-minilm:l6-v2

npx get-claudia my-project --no-memory

Installs only the template layer (skills, commands, rules). Claudia works using markdown files without semantic search or pattern detection. You can add the memory system later by running the installer again without --no-memory.

cd your-claudia-directory
npx get-claudia .

This upgrades framework files (CLAUDE.md, skills, rules, daemon code) while preserving your data (context/, people/, projects/, databases). Safe to run multiple times. The installer detects existing installations and only updates system files.

Morning brief pulls everything together:

You:     /morning-brief

Claudia: ☀️ Morning Brief — Wednesday, Feb 19

         ⚠️ Needs Attention:
         • Send updated pitch deck to Sarah Chen [OVERDUE]
         • Quarterly review with Acme Corp is tomorrow

         👀 Watch:
         • Haven't spoken to Marcus in 18 days (usually weekly)
         • Two new commitments this week, zero closed

         📊 Today: 3 meetings, 2 open commitments

Judgment rules shape everything she does:

You:     I've got the Acme proposal and Marcus wants a catch-up.
         Which first?

Claudia: Acme proposal. Your judgment rules say revenue-generating
         work beats relationship maintenance when there's a
         deadline, and the Acme proposal is due Thursday.

         I'll remind you about Marcus tomorrow morning.

Pattern detection works across weeks, not just moments:

Claudia: I've noticed something across the last few weeks.
         You've taken on 4 new commitments without closing any.
         Last time this happened (early January), two slipped
         past deadline.

         Want me to flag the lowest-priority ones so you can
         decide what to defer?

Every conversation builds on the last. She remembers.
