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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00053 | $0.00697 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00021 | $0.00279 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00011 | $0.00139 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00070 |
Grade A, and why
crux-cursor-memory-manager 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 1mo 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 — 41 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
This agent is a deprecated dispatcher shim. The Memory Manager has been split into five mode-scoped thin agents so each memory command only pays for the mode it uses. If your task maps to one of the modes below, spawn the thin agent directly.
Dispatch table
| Mode | Thin agent to spawn | Parent orchestrator |
|---|---|---|
| Dream Mode | crux-memory-dream |
/crux-dream <spec-name> |
| REM Sleep | crux-memory-rem |
/crux-dream --rem (also /crux-recall → Consolidate) |
| Recall Mode | crux-memory-recall |
/crux-recall (Canvas branch on --total) |
| Remember Mode | crux-memory-remember |
/crux-remember |
| Forget Mode | crux-memory-forget |
/crux-forget (also /crux-recall → Delete) |
Routing rule: If your task is <mode>, prefer spawning <thin-agent> directly. This umbrella is retained for pre-upgrade installs and will be removed after one minor release once thin agents ship in the dist zip. The five thin agents each carry their own context_manifest honor block and shared-reference pointer, so no capability is lost by bypassing this dispatcher.
Meditate ownership: Meditate / Research / Quick / Ensemble work is owned by crux-cursor-meditation-guide (spawned by /crux-meditate) — not by this dispatcher.
Removal criteria
- The five thin agents (
crux-memory-dream,crux-memory-rem,crux-memory-recall,crux-memory-remember,crux-memory-forget) plus.cursor/agents/templates/recall-canvas.tsx.mdare shipped in the dist zip. - The consumer upgrade script re-points existing installs at the thin agents.
- One minor release cycle has elapsed since the thin agents shipped so downstream projects have had a chance to upgrade.
Once all three criteria are met, delete this file.

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.

crux-cursor-memory-manager is an agent published in the GitHub repository zotoio/CRUX-Compress (8 stars, last pushed 14d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 53 tokens to every session and 697 once invoked, about $0.0002 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.
