Claude Cognitive is an advanced memory and context-management extension designed to address the stateless limitations of Claude Code by giving the model a form of persistent “working memory” and multi-instance coordination. It introduces an attention-based context router that prioritizes files and content relevant to the current development discussion — tagging them as HOT, WARM, or COLD based on recency and keyword activation — so Claude Code doesn’t waste token budget rereading irrelevant code. This context routing dramatically reduces redundant token usage and accelerates large codebase interactions by focusing only on what truly matters to the current task. Additionally, Claude-Cognitive includes a pool coordinator to share state across multiple Claude Code instances, preserving what’s been learned or completed and preventing repetitive debugging or redundant exploration.
