# glen: Claude Code plugin
Shared team memory for coding agents. Glen automatically recalls relevant context at
the start of every turn and captures what you build, so your whole team's agents share
the same institutional knowledge.
## What it does
The glen plugin registers these hooks, each a single glen CLI call started through
hooks/run-glen.mjs, which runs that call and nothing else:
SessionStart (glen session-start): injects glen's status (org, mode) as
context, shows a notice when glen is off, incognito, or silent, and runs
glen doctor --auto in the background.
UserPromptSubmit (glen ingest): sends the prompt (plus the prior assistant
turn and workspace context: repo, branch, agent name) to your glen org, retrieves
matching memories, and injects them as additional context for the model.
Stop (glen ingest): records the finished turn.
PostToolUse on Bash (glen pr-link): after a git commit, links the commit
to the session in glen; when a command prints a GitHub PR URL for this clone's repo,
has the agent offer Glen's local reviewer (glen review --detach), once per PR.
glen off injects and records nothing. In incognito (glen incognito) recall still
works but nothing is recorded to team memory. Glen reads only the hook input, the
agent's session transcript, and git metadata for the current repo.
## Skills
The plugin ships skills the agent invokes on demand:
search: search the team's shared glen memory for a specific fact,
decision, or past discussion.
code-search: trace a piece of code to the agent conversations that produced it.
forget: correct glen's memory by forgetting wrong or outdated evidence.
controls: turn glen on/off, go off the record (incognito), go silent,
toggle skill suggestions, or switch which organization's memory is active,
only when you explicitly ask.
setup: set up, fix, or update glen on this machine. If glen is ever
broken (not connected, no org selected, hooks missing), just ask the agent to
"set up glen" and it repairs whatever glen doctor reports.
create-skill / use-skill: save a workflow as a skill, or find and run
one from the Glen skill library.
create-artifact / use-artifact: save a document to your Glen artifact
library, or open one from it.
import-transcripts: import old local agent sessions into glen memory.
invite: invite a teammate to your glen organization.
feedback: send a bug report or product feedback to the Glen team.
session-takeover: open a shared transcript from a Glen takeover code in a
fresh session.
