# Brain Monitor

Launch the Brain Monitor, a live terminal dashboard showing real-time memory activity.

**Triggers:** `/brain-monitor`, "brain monitor", "show dashboard", "memory dashboard", "terminal brain", "open the monitor"

---

## Launch

Run this command:

```bash
~/.claudia/daemon/venv/bin/python -m claudia_memory --tui
```

Launch it using the Bash tool with `run_in_background: true` so the Claude session stays responsive.

If the venv doesn't exist, the memory daemon isn't installed. Tell the user:
`bash ~/.claudia/daemon/scripts/install.sh`
