Account-level sync for commands, memory, and settings

Feature request
Claude Code stores user-level configuration locally (~/.claude/), including:
- Custom slash commands (
~/.claude/commands/) - Auto memory files (
~/.claude/projects/*/memory/) - User settings (
~/.claude/settings.json) - MCP server configurations
When moving between machines (e.g. work desktop, laptop, new install), none of this transfers. Users have to manually copy or re-create their setup.
Proposal
Add optional account-level sync so that user-level config (commands, memory, settings) persists across machines tied to the user's Claude/Anthropic account. This would mean:
- Custom slash commands are available on any machine
- Memory (user preferences, project context) carries over
- Settings and MCP server configs can be synced (with opt-in, since some are machine-specific)
Use case
As a user who works across multiple machines, I want my Claude Code customizations (commands, memory, preferences) to be available everywhere without manual file copying. When I set up a new machine and log into Claude Code, my personalized setup should just be there.
