Shared memory for Claude Desktop's Chat & Code tabs

Two tabs, one window, zero shared context — until now.

Claude Desktop's Chat tab and Code tab live in the same app but don't share a single byte of context. Claude-Desktop-Bridge is a small local MCP server that gives them a shared, persistent knowledge vault — save a note in Code, read it back in Chat five minutes later, with no re-explaining and no burned tokens.

It's deliberately not a context dump. Five narrow tools — save, retrieve, search, update, delete — pull in only what's actually relevant, on demand.

Download the .mcpb from the latest release and drag it onto the Claude Desktop window — or Settings → Extensions → Advanced settings → Install Extension. No configuration screen. The vault lives at ~/.claude-bridge/vault.db, entirely on your machine.

Runs entirely local — no network requests, no telemetry, no third-party sharing.
