# Claude Code + Obsidian + Graphify: The Definitive Guide to Token Savings & Persistent Memory
> **71.5x fewer tokens per session** with Graphify + **permanent memory across sessions** with Obsidian Zettelkasten.
A complete setup to turn Claude Code into an agent with long-term memory and full codebase awareness — without wasting tokens re-reading files.

## The Problem
When working with Claude Code, two problems silently eat your tokens:
**Problem 1 — Amnesia between sessions.** Every time you open a new session, you have to re-explain your project: stack, past decisions, current bugs, what's left to do. Claude Code remembers nothing from the previous session.
**Problem 2 — Codebase re-reading.** Claude Code re-reads all your project files every session to understand the structure. A project with ~40 files burns ~20,000 tokens just for Claude to orient itself — before you even ask a question. If you run 10 sessions a day, that's **200,000 wasted tokens**.

## The Solution (Overview)
Two complementary systems, each solving a different problem:
| Layer | Tool | Problem Solved | Cost |
|-------|------|---------------|------|
| Project memory | Obsidian Zettelkasten | Amnesia between sessions | Free |
| Code map | Graphify | Codebase re-reading | Free (AST mode) |
| Conversation history | Import pipeline | Lost chat insights | Free |
| Continuity | `/resume` and `/save` commands | Picking up where you left off | Free |
Obsidian handles **what was decided** (declarative memory). Graphify handles **how the code is structured** (structural map). Together, Claude Code starts every session knowing everything — without re-reading anything.

## Part 1 — Obsidian as Persistent Memory
### Concept
A single, centralized Obsidian vault acts as Claude Code's "second brain." It stores decisions, context, progress, and knowledge for all your projects. Notes follow the Zettelkasten method: atomic (one idea per note), densely interlinked, with standardized metadata.
Claude Code accesses the vault through `CLAUDE.md` and custom skills.
