navigator

Navigator is a Claude Code plugin that solves the context crash problem developers face during extended coding sessions. It implements context engineering to load documentation and project information only when needed, keeping 94% of your context window available for actual work instead of static documentation. The plugin extends sessions from 5-7 exchanges to 20+ exchanges while saving 92% of tokens, verified through OpenTelemetry metrics. Features include Theory of Mind for learning user preferences, Loop Mode for uninterrupted task completion, and a Knowledge Graph that maintains project memory across sessions. Developers and operations teams benefit from sessions that finish features rather than crash mid-way, with structured workflows for component generation, test creation, and code simplification.

[{"step":"Start your task in a standard Claude Code session until you hit the 20-exchange limit or need to switch contexts.","tip":"Use descriptive comments in your code to maintain context for the Navigator skill."},{"step":"Copy the prompt template and replace [TASK_DESCRIPTION] with a summary of your current task, [OUTPUT_FILE_PATH] with where you want to save progress, and [VERIFICATION_COMMAND] with how you'll test the results.","tip":"Be specific about what 'maintain all prior context' means for your task (e.g., 'keep the same variable names', 'preserve the test cases')."},{"step":"Open a new Claude Code session and paste the customized prompt. The Navigator skill will automatically restore your previous state.","tip":"If you're using external tools (e.g., Git), ensure your session has access to the same repository state."},{"step":"Verify the output matches your expectations using the [VERIFICATION_COMMAND] you specified.","tip":"Add a comment like '# Navigator: Session continued' to mark where the session resumed."},{"step":"Continue working in the new session, and repeat the process when you hit the limit again.","tip":"For complex tasks, break them into smaller checkpoints (e.g., 'after implementing retry logic') to make Navigator transitions smoother."}]
