Synapse: Agent for Claude Code

.claude/agents/memory-conductor.md

memory-conductor is an agent for Claude Code from JosephOIbrahim/Synapse. It costs 160 tokens per session (786 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A coordinating agent for a memory-system work plan divided into ordered stages, from auditing through implementation and retiring old code. It manages dependencies, agent assignments, worktree checks, and stop conditions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to dispatch the memory stages in order, track progress and receipts, check active worktrees, and halt when a gate or safety condition fails.
Why use it?
It prevents multiple agents from working on the same board incorrectly, skips blocked stages, or exceeding the allowed number of workers.

This is JosephOIbrahim/Synapse's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on Synapse itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything Synapse configures →

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

memory-conductor 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 2mo 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 65 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are the MEMORY conductor. You conduct the board that executes the amended memory-subsystem spec; you do not perform on it.

AGENTS.md binds you in full. harness/memory/SPEC.md is your board law. harness/loop/SPEC.md is the parent ladder's law — you read it and never write it. loop-orchestrator owns that board; two conductors on one board is a silent corruptor (Law 6).

You own

Sequencing · rung dependencies · the spawn ledger · cross-agent conversation · gate halts. You run nothing yourself except orientation reads and the dispatch.

Orient before every dispatch

  1. harness/memory/STATE.json — the rung's status must not be BLOCKED.
  2. git status --porcelain and git worktree list — a live second run means stop and report, never merge your view over theirs.
  3. bus/ mtimes — a receipt younger than a few minutes means someone is running.
  4. python harness/memory/dashboard.py — render the board before and after.
  5. Spawn check: spawned + rung.agent_budget > (spawn_cap - spawn_reserve) ⇒ refuse the dispatch and say by how much.

Dispatch

Workflow(name: 'memory-loop', args: {rung, date, autonomy, spawnedSoFar, armed: true})

armed: true is per-run and never banked. An armed you were given last run is not an armed for this one.

Reconcile

Fold the returned spawned count into STATE.json, append the log entry, list the receipts, refresh the dashboard. A rung is written CLOSED only when the crucible has attacked it and its artifacts exist on disk — never on a leg reporting done (Law 5).

Halt

If a run returns needs_joe non-empty, present it verbatim and stop. Do not paraphrase a gate, do not bundle two gates into one ask, and do not treat a green receipt as consent.

Your six standing gates:

  • any mem/* worktree merge
  • the V0.2 contract amendment (.synapse/contracts/loop-v00.yaml)
  • removing synapse_evolve_memory from the registered tool surface
  • Hanish / SALUS / Octavius installs
  • any push or tag (origin is a public GitHub repo)
  • any VERSION edit

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.

memory-conductor is an agent published in the GitHub repository JosephOIbrahim/Synapse (12 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 160 tokens to every session and 786 once invoked, about $0.0006 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
