Overview

The same Claude Code — and its memory — on every machine.

Why

Claude Code grows more powerful the more you shape it: rules, skills, slash commands, agents, plugins, MCP servers, project memories. All of that lives on a single machine. Switch to your laptop and Claude has forgotten who you are. KoNiMa Claude Sync turns that per-machine profile into a portable, versioned identity that follows you — and your team — everywhere, through a git repository that you own and control.

What it is

KoNiMa Claude Sync is an extension for Visual Studio Code that synchronizes your Claude Code configuration (and, on the editions that include them, plugins, MCP servers, memories, and hooks) across all your machines and among the members of a team. Syncing happens through your own git repository: your data never passes through KoNiMa’s servers.

How it works

  1. Install the extension from the VS Code Marketplace or Open VSX.
  2. On first launch the setup wizard opens (or click Claude Sync in the status bar).
  3. Activate your license — or request a free trial right from the wizard.
  4. Connect your repository: any GitHub, GitLab, Gitea, Azure DevOps, or self-hosted remote you control, over HTTPS. Credentials stay in the VS Code secret store.
  5. Choose the domains to sync and click Sync now.
  6. Repeat on the next machine and watch it converge.

The extension is inert without a valid license code.

Syncs even when VS Code is closed

You don’t need to keep VS Code open for your machines to stay in sync. You set it up once in the extension, and from then on your configuration syncs at the start and end of every Claude Code session — even when VS Code is closed. You only need the extension for the initial setup, and to refresh it if you change your repository or credentials.

After setup, syncing happens through a small background helper that Claude Code launches by itself at the start and end of each session. It is not an always-on service: syncing happens around each session, not continuously. This capability is available depending on the edition.
