recall

recall is a command for coding agents from JingxuanC/causal-memory. It costs 13 tokens per session (335 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A command that recalls relevant past decisions, lessons, predictions, and risk assessments from causal memory before you act.

In plain words
What is it for?
Searching prior experience, comparing concrete options, and checking the risks of actions before starting a task.
Why use it?
It reduces the chance of repeating earlier mistakes or overlooking experience relevant to the current choice.

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

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 yesterday.

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

Before acting on "$ARGUMENTS", recall everything relevant from causal memory:

  1. Call search_memory with "$ARGUMENTS" (fused facts + causal lessons).
  2. If any hit's task_tag looks like the current domain, call search_causal restricted to that tag for depth.
  3. Judgment call, two concrete options in play? Call counterfactual_query with BOTH option texts — same-context branches (natural experiments) beat pooled statistics when they exist.
  4. Risky or irreversible action? Call intervention_query on it and heed the safe/warning/danger label.

Then answer, in this order:

  • Relevant experience (max 5 bullets: decision → outcome, with task_tag and confidence)
  • What it implies for "$ARGUMENTS" (one short paragraph)
  • If you are about to record anything new afterwards, remember to pass context on record_decision — especially when options were weighed.

If memory holds nothing relevant, say so plainly and proceed; absence of evidence is not evidence of safety.

Changes

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.
