How to Set Up and Use Continuous Claude V3

Continuous Claude v3 is a comprehensive context management and agent orchestration system for Claude Code that solves the problem of lost context across long sessions and agent handoffs. It uses PostgreSQL with pgvector for persistent memory, continuity ledgers (Markdown files tracking in-session progress), and structured YAML handoff files to transfer context between sessions without polluting the active context window. The system includes 109 skills, 32 specialized agents, and 30 lifecycle hooks that together enable autonomous multi-agent workflows with 95% token savings on code analysis via a 5-layer AST/CFG/DFG analysis stack.

Prerequisites

  • Python 3.11 or later installed
  • uv package manager installed (https://github.com/astral-sh/uv)
  • Docker installed and running (for the PostgreSQL + pgvector database)
  • Claude Code CLI installed and authenticated
  • Optional: Braintrust API key (session tracing), Perplexity API key (web search), NIA API key (documentation search)
1

Clone the repository

Clone the Continuous Claude repository to your local machine. The opc directory contains the setup wizard and all scripts.

git clone https://github.com/parcadei/Continuous-Claude-v3.git
cd Continuous-Claude-v3/opc
2

Run the setup wizard

The wizard performs 12 automated steps including Docker container setup, PostgreSQL schema initialization with pgvector, and installation of skills, agents, hooks, and rules into ~/.claude/.

uv run python -m scripts.setup.wizard
3

Configure optional API keys

Add optional API keys to your Claude Code settings for enhanced capabilities. Perplexity enables web search, Braintrust enables session analytics, and NIA enables documentation lookup.

# In ~/.claude/settings.json, add to the env section:
{
  "env": {
    "BRAINTRUST_API_KEY": "your-key",
    "PERPLEXITY_API_KEY": "your-key",
    "NIA_API_KEY": "your-key"
  }
}
4

Configure a remote PostgreSQL database (optional)

If you want to share memory across machines, set the CONTINUOUS_CLAUDE_DB_URL environment variable to point to a remote PostgreSQL instance with the pgvector extension. The pgvector schema is initialized from docker/init-schema.sql.

{
  "env": {
    "CONTINUOUS_CLAUDE_DB_URL": "postgresql://user:pass@hostname:5432/continuous_claude"
  }
}
5

Start a session with workflow routing

Open your project in Claude Code. Use the /workflow meta-skill to route to the appropriate Research, Plan, Build, or Fix workflow based on your current task.

/workflow
6

Save state and create handoffs between sessions

Use natural language phrases to trigger context saving. At the end of a session, say 'done for today' to create a handoff file. Resume the next day with 'resume work'.

Continuous Claude V3 Examples

Claude Desktop / Claude Code configuration

Continuous Claude v3 installs into Claude Code's ~/.claude/ directory rather than running as a standalone MCP server. The DATABASE_URL is set automatically by the wizard, but you can reference it in settings.

{
  "env": {
    "DATABASE_URL": "postgresql://localhost:5432/continuous_claude",
    "CLAUDE_OPC_DIR": "/path/to/Continuous-Claude-v3/opc",
    "CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR": "/path/to/your/project"
  }
}

Prompts to try

Use these natural language commands inside a Claude Code session to activate the installed skills and agents.

- "Fix the login bug in auth.py" (activates /fix workflow, debug-agent, scout, and auto-creates a handoff)
- "Build a user dashboard" (activates /build workflow, plan-agent, architect, kraken)
- "Understand the codebase" (activates /explore deep, scout agent)
- "What could go wrong with this approach?" (activates /premortem with TIGERS/ELEPHANTS risk analysis)
- "Research authentication patterns" (activates oracle agent + perplexity-search)
- "Done for today" (triggers create_handoff to save full session context)

Troubleshooting Continuous Claude V3

Setup wizard fails at the Docker/PostgreSQL step

Ensure Docker Desktop is running before starting the wizard. The wizard starts a PostgreSQL container with the pgvector extension using the schema in docker/init-schema.sql. If the container already exists, run: docker rm -f continuous-claude-db and re-run the wizard.

Memory recall returns no results after storing learnings

The memory daemon analyzes thinking blocks at session end and stores embeddings asynchronously. Allow a few seconds after session end for processing. Manually trigger recall with: cd opc && uv run python scripts/core/recall_learnings.py --query 'your query'

Skills or hooks are not activating in Claude Code sessions

Confirm that ~/.claude/skills/ and ~/.claude/hooks/ contain the installed files. Restart Claude Code after installation. Check ~/.claude/settings.json to ensure hooks are registered. If symlink mode is desired instead of copy mode, manually remove the copied files and symlink them to the repo.
