nff-brain for VS Code

Visualize and edit your project's nff-brain — the local-first knowledge-graph memory that Claude Code recalls at every session start and grows after every session.

  • Full-width graph (square nodes, pan/zoom, category glyphs ◈ ⊕ ▦ ↑, search).
  • Click a node and it opens as a real markdown editor tab beside the graph (nffbrain: virtual files). Edit the title, category, body, or the ## Links list and save — everything writes back into the brain. [[id]] references are Ctrl+clickable.
  • Create nodes from the toolbar (+ Node), delete via nff-brain: Delete Node….
  • Live updates: when a Claude Code session ends and the distiller writes new nodes, the open graph refreshes automatically.
  • Fully offline. The brain is a JSON file in your workspace (.nff-brain/brain.json); this extension bundles all of its UI and talks to nothing on the network.

Pair it with the CLI (npm i -g nff-brain, then nff-brain init --hooks in your project) to wire the Claude Code session hooks. See the repository for the full story.

Commands: nff-brain: Open Brain opens the graph as a full editor tab; the status-bar brain item is a one-click shortcut to the same tab.
