🤯 Claude Desktop saving memory via `server-memory` but still "forgetting" in new chats? I know the pain! The fix: Force a consistent key! ALWAYS tell Claude: "Update key `ai_project_context` _before_ responding!" Then, "Load key `ai_project_context` _first_ in new convos!" Guaranteed continuity! #ClaudeDesktop #AI #Productivity #TechTips

💡 My SynapticOverload.com admin account was broken. Claude AI took over: It _fixed the code_, added ~11 unit tests, then (via tools) _logged into the DB_, examined its schema, transferred _all_ my articles/comments/votes to a new user, and deleted the old one. I just watched in awe! #AI #Automation #DevOps #ClaudeAI
