claude-gists

Create GitHub Gists from the command line. Built to work alongside Claude Code workflows.

Bundled scripts

The scripts/ directory contains shell and Emacs Lisp utilities for integrating Claude Code's auto-memory system with org-roam:

scripts/update-memory-node.sh

Creates or updates an org-roam index node next to Claude's MEMORY.md. Links all .md memory files via relative file: links — no conversion needed.

update-memory-node.sh ~/.claude/projects/-Users-pavel-org/memory

scripts/md-to-org-roam.sh

Converts Claude memory .md files to org-roam nodes using Pandoc + Emacs batch. Requires: pandoc, emacs

md-to-org-roam.sh ~/.claude/projects/-Users-pavel-org/memory ~/org/roam

scripts/md-to-org-roam.el

Pure Emacs Lisp version — no Pandoc. Run with:

emacs --batch -l ~/.emacs.d/init.el -l /path/to/md-to-org-roam.el

Install

npm install -g claude-gists
