Claude Code 'session-memo' mod keeps TODOs per session

Claude Code 'session-memo' mod keeps TODOs per session

3 Key Points

  1. What happened

    A team lead at 株式会社イエソド used Claude Code's Mods, announced 2026年10月1日, to build 'session-memo', which stores TODO items and timestamped notes in Markdown under .session-memo/ per session.

  2. Why it matters

    The tool addresses losing track of which note belongs to which open session, since notes are tied to the session and update in real time, so developers running several Claude Code sessions can keep tasks and findings attached to the right one.

  3. What to watch

    The mod runs only on the desktop app's band above the input field, and the pane's text still cannot be selected, so copying relies on dedicated buttons. The desktop file pane can only edit files inside the working directory and outside .claude/.

WHO IT HITSDevelopers and engineers who run several Claude Code sessions at once and want their notes and TODOs tied to the right session; those needing editable files must keep them in the working directory outside .claude/.

Context & Analysis

The mod was built because taking notes in Raycast Notes became confusing once several Claude Code sessions were open at once, making it hard to tell which note belonged to which session. The author used the Mods feature, announced on 2026年10月1日, which lets users inject their own TypeScript into Claude Code to change the interface and behavior, working in both the terminal and the desktop app's Code tab.

The result, 'session-memo', shows TODO and memo counts plus buttons in the band above the input field, and offers a pane for adding or deleting items. The implementation is deliberately simple: data lives as plain Markdown under .session-memo/, avoiding a database or custom format, and the author notes the mod was mostly complete from a single prompt asking Claude Code to build a memo pad.

The limits are practical rather than conceptual. The pane's text cannot be selected, so copying runs through buttons; the top-right icon row cannot be extended; and editable files must sit outside .claude/. Whether this pattern spreads beyond one engineer's setup may hinge on how much Claude Code's UI components expand, which the author says they are waiting for. For teams that already juggle multiple sessions, the appeal is simply keeping short notes and TODOs attached to the session they belong to.

FAQ
Where are the notes stored?
They are written as plain Markdown in a .session-memo/ folder in the working directory, one file per session, rather than a database or custom format.
Why can't notes live under .claude/?
The desktop file pane can only edit files inside the working directory and outside .claude/, so the notes had to be moved.
