Make Claude Dream: The Prompt That Cleans Up Its Memory

The dream prompt from the reel. Claude reads what it knows about you, flags what is old or contradicts itself, and gives you a keep, fix or delete table. Nothing changes until you say yes.

1. What dreaming is

Anthropic published "The components of agent memory" on 6 November 2026. It splits Claude's memory into four parts: what loads into every chat, the notes Claude writes, the map that links those notes, and the transcripts of every past session. Then there is dreaming.

Dreaming comes from how we sleep. At night your brain replays the day and keeps the parts worth keeping. Claude does the same between sessions. It reads back through its old chats, checks its notes against what really happened, and fixes the wrong ones.

Dreaming itself runs in Anthropic's Managed Agents, which is a research preview. The prompts below give you your own version in the Claude app today.


That’s the first part. The rest of this guide is free too.
