gitmem-status

gitmem-status is a command for Claude Code from gitmem-dev/gitmem. It costs 12 tokens per session (439 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A status command for GitMem, a memory system for coding agents. It reports whether GitMem is connected, the current session, hook activity, and the audit trail of memory lookups and actions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect the active GitMem session, connection status, hook counts, recall activity, and recent audit entries.
Why use it?
It gives one place to check whether GitMem is working and whether the agent followed the expected memory process. It can also reveal actions taken without a preceding memory lookup.

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

gitmem-status 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.

What it actually says

GitMem Status

Check the current state of the GitMem hooks plugin and active session.

Instructions

  1. Check if gitmem MCP is connected: Call the mcp__gitmem__gitmem-cache-status tool. If it returns a response, the server is connected. Report scar count and cache age from the response. Do NOT use claude mcp list — its health check returns false negatives.

  2. Check active session: Read .gitmem/active-session.json if it exists. Report:

    • Session ID
    • Agent identity
    • Start time
    • Whether scars have been surfaced (surfaced_scars timestamp)

  3. Check hook state: Look for /tmp/gitmem-hooks-* directories. Report:

    • Session start time
    • Tool call count
    • Last nag time
    • Whether stop_hook_active guard is set

  4. Check audit trail: Read /tmp/gitmem-hooks-*/audit.jsonl if it exists. Report:

    • Total LOOKED events (recall/search calls)
    • Total ACTION events (consequential actions)
    • Whether any ACTION was taken without a prior LOOKED (potential gap)
    • Last 5 audit entries

  5. Summary: Present a concise status block:

    GitMem Status
├── MCP Server: connected/disconnected
├── Active Session: <id> (started <time>)
├── Recall: last called <time> / never called
├── Tool Calls: <count>
├── Audit Trail: <looked> LOOKED / <action> ACTION events
│   └── Look-before-act: <yes/gap detected>
└── Hooks: session-start ✓ | recall-check ✓ | post-tool-use ✓ | close-check ✓

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.
