OpenViking Memory Hooks — persistent memory across Gemini CLI sessions

[benediktkraus]

Built a hook system that gives Gemini CLI persistent long-term memory via OpenViking.

What it does: Every prompt gets enriched with relevant memories from previous sessions. Every session captures decisions, preferences, and context. Works across Gemini CLI, Claude Code, Codex, and OpenClaw — same memory pool.

Recall pipeline: Hybrid search (semantic + grep + RRF merge) → 5-scope system (CWD-based) → 7-dimension ranking → MMR diversity filter → temporal decay → caveman compaction → citations

Capture pipeline: Substance filter → pre-processing (strip code/tags) → content merge (>0.85 appends instead of duplicating) → auto-link (project + tool + incident relations)

Gemini-specific: Installs as an extension with BeforeAgent + AfterAgent + PreCompress hooks.

git clone https://github.com/benediktkraus/openviking-hooks.git
cd openviking-hooks
./install.sh gemini

Fork of Castor6/openviking-plugins with hybrid search, scoping, ranking, retry, remote mode added.

Hey there. Thanks for sharing this.

Memory management is a huge focus for us right now. We are actively looking at ways to improve persistent context across sessions.
