🧠 Claude Thread Continuity MCP Server

Never lose context again! This MCP server automatically saves and restores project state when Claude threads hit token limits, ensuring seamless conversation continuity.

🚀 Features

• 🔄 Automatic State Persistence - Auto-saves project context during conversations
• ⚡ Seamless Restoration - Instantly restore full context when starting new threads
• 🛡️ Smart Validation - Prevents project fragmentation with intelligent name checking
• 🔒 Privacy First - All data stored locally on your machine
• 🎯 Zero Configuration - Works invisibly once set up
• 📊 Smart Triggers - Auto-saves on file changes, decisions, milestones
• 🗂️ Multi-Project Support - Manage multiple concurrent projects

✨ NEW: Anti-Fragmentation System

Version 1.1 introduces intelligent project validation to prevent the common issue of accidentally creating multiple similar projects:

• 🔍 Fuzzy Name Matching - Detects similar project names (70% similarity threshold)
• ⚠️ Validation Warnings - Suggests consolidation when similar projects exist
• 💪 Force Override - Bypass validation when genuinely different projects needed
• 🎯 Configurable Thresholds - Adjust sensitivity for your workflow

Example Validation in Action

❌ Project "Hebrew Speaking Evaluation MVP" blocked
✅ Similar project found: "Hebrew Evaluation MVP" (85% similar)
🎯 Recommendation: Update existing project or use force=true

⚡ Quick Start

# 1. Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/peless/claude-thread-continuity.git
cd claude-thread-continuity

# 2. Install dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt

# 3. Test the enhanced server
python3 test_server.py

# 4. Add to Claude Desktop config
# See setup instructions below

🛠️ Installation

1. Install the MCP Server

# Create permanent directory
mkdir -p ~/.mcp-servers/claude-continuity
cd ~/.mcp-servers/claude-continuity

# Copy files (or clone repo to this location)
# Place server.py and requirements.txt here

2. Configure Claude Desktop

Edit your Claude Desktop configuration file:

• macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
• Windows: %APPDATA%\\Claude\\claude_desktop_config.json
• Linux: ~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

Add this configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "claude-continuity": {
      "command": "python3",
      "args": ["~/.mcp-servers/claude-continuity/server.py"],
      "env": {}
    }
  }
}

3. Restart Claude Desktop

Close and reopen Claude Desktop. The continuity tools will now be available automatically.

🎯 How It Works

Automatic Context Saving

The server automatically saves project state when:

• ✅ Files are created or modified
• ✅ Technical decisions are made
• ✅ Project milestones are reached
• ✅ Every 10 messages (fallback)

Smart Validation Process

Before saving, the system:

1. Checks for Similar Names - Uses fuzzy matching to find existing projects
2. Calculates Similarity - Compares project names with 70% threshold
3. Provides Recommendations - Suggests consolidation or renaming
4. Allows Override - Use force: true for edge cases

Context Restoration

When starting a new thread:

1. Load Project: load_project_state: project_name="your-project"
2. Full Context Restored: All technical decisions, files, and progress restored
3. Continue Seamlessly: Pick up exactly where you left off
