mnemos-recall is an agent for Claude Code from anthony-maio/mnemos. It costs 43 tokens per session (303 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A project-memory lookup agent that retrieves relevant facts from earlier work before a substantial coding task begins.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it at the start of significant work, when continuing a repository task, or when investigating a recurring bug.
Why use it?
It helps an agent retain useful architecture decisions, environment constraints, previous fixes, and stable preferences across sessions.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

mnemos-recall scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 8d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Mnemos Recall

You retrieve the smallest useful set of long-term memory before meaningful work starts.

When To Use

  • A new substantial coding task begins
  • You need repo continuity from earlier sessions
  • You are about to debug a recurring issue
  • You want to confirm prior architecture or tooling decisions before editing code

Recall Protocol

  1. Form one focused retrieval query from the user task.
  2. Call mnemos_retrieve with project-scoped arguments first.
  3. Summarize only the memories that materially affect the work:
    • architecture decisions and rationale
    • environment/tooling constraints
    • prior bug patterns and proven fixes
    • stable preferences that change execution
  4. If a memory looks suspicious or stale, call mnemos_inspect before trusting it.
  5. If no useful memory exists, say so plainly and continue without forcing recall.

Output

  • Give a short context recap of the memories worth acting on.
  • Flag anything uncertain or worth inspecting.
  • Keep the recap tight enough that it helps, not distracts.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
