To persist Claude Code agent memory across sessions, initialize a Trellis workflow system. This creates a `.trellis/` directory containing structured guidelines, session history, and slash-command automation to maintain project context.

The Trellis workflow system is an AI-assisted development framework that structures repository guidelines, agent traces, and slash commands. It enables Claude Code to persist context and follow repo-based guidelines across multiple development sessions.

Setting up slash commands requires initializing Trellis by verifying Node.js and npm, installing the Trellis CLI, and running `trellis init` with a developer identifier. This creates workflow, command, and configuration files for immediate use.

Yes, Node.js and npm are required prerequisites to initialize Trellis. The setup process involves verifying these environments, installing the Trellis CLI globally via npm, and running the initialization command to generate the workflow structure.

Yes, Trellis initialization prompts for a developer name to organize session history. This identifier tracks individual agent traces under the `agent-traces/` directory, allowing multiple developers to maintain separate session contexts.

Trellis automates the creation of structured guidelines, agent memory persistence, and slash-command entrypoints like `/start`. This standardized workflow initialization ensures consistent AI-assisted development context tracking without manual file scaffolding.
