AI Dream — AI skill for Claude Code

ai-dream


**Memory consolidation for AI agents — REM sleep for your coding assistant.**

After 20+ sessions, your AI's `MEMORY.md` becomes a graveyard of duplicates, stale context, and noise. **ai-dream** fixes this by running a background consolidation process — like how your brain cleans up memories during REM sleep.

Two versions, same goal:

	Claude Code	OpenClaw
Directory	`claude-code/`	`openclaw/`
Mechanism	Built-in autoDreamEnabled setting	Cron-triggered dream agent
Setup	One line in settings.json	setup.sh or manual cron
Runs when	Background (Claude decides)	Nightly at 3:00 AM (configurable)
Config file	settings.json	DREAM.md
Customizable rules	No (black box)	Yes (full control)

The Problem

Your AI assistant accumulates memory files over time. Without consolidation:

• Duplicates pile up — the same project status recorded 5 different ways
• Stale info lingers — completed tasks, old deadlines, superseded decisions
• Signal drowns in noise — important context gets buried under session artifacts
• MEMORY.md bloats — the index file grows past useful limits

The Solution

**ai-dream** consolidates memory the way sleep consolidates human memory:

Session 1 → raw notes
Session 2 → raw notes
Session 3 → raw notes
        ↓
   [Dream cycle]
        ↓
  Clean MEMORY.md
  (deduplicated, pruned, integrated)
