Interactively create, install, activate, and verify custom claude-mem modes, including domain-specific observation types, concept tags, optional Telegram alerts, bot setup, worker restart, and startup-context verification. Use this whenever someone asks to customize what claude-mem remembers, create or change a mode, track domain-specific notes, add observation types or tags, or send Telegram notifications for particular memories—even if they do not use the word "mode.".

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Mode Creator

Create a useful note-taking system, not merely a valid JSON file. Interview the user, propose a small taxonomy, obtain approval, install it durably, configure optional alerts, restart the worker, and prove the active mode appears in startup context.

## Ground rules

- Use the available interactive question tool (`AskUserQuestion`, `request_user_input`, or equivalent) for the interview. Ask in small batches and wait for each response.
- Explain observation types as mutually exclusive kinds of notes and concepts as reusable tags. Avoid jargon unless the user uses it first.
- Inspect existing bundled and user modes before inventing a new one. Reuse or remix a close match when that serves the user better.
- Do not edit a plugin cache or bundled mode. Install custom files under the resolved claude-mem data directory's `modes/` folder.
- Do not expose a Telegram token in chat, command arguments, logs, or tool output. Treat it like a password.
- Preserve unrelated settings and existing Telegram triggers. The helpers make timestamped backups and merge requested triggers.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add thedotmack/claude-mem/mode-creator@sha256:ab6882abae4de20d

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260913.c61f8be, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
