New tool helps manage Claude Code's memory limits

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A new tool called limitcast 0.16 has been released to help users manage the memory limitations of Claude Code. Claude Code only loads the first 200 lines or 25 KB of its MEMORY.md file at the start of each session, meaning any content beyond that limit is never read. Limitcast 0.16 introduces commands like `limitcast memory`, `limitcast doctor`, `/limitcast:memory-audit`, and `/limitcast:memory-split` to identify and resolve issues related to oversized memory files, broken links, and unlinked topic files within Claude Code projects.
