prime

A command that loads relevant previous project context into the current coding-agent conversation from mneme's vault. It matches the supplied task description with stored documents.

In plain words
What is it for?
Preparing context at the start of a task, switching topics, or beginning a code review; the returned bundle is limited to the configured token budget.
Why use it?
It helps a new session recover earlier decisions and ongoing work without manually searching through all stored notes.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

prime 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 2d 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

/mneme:prime

Inject preflight context for the current task into the conversation.

Usage

/mneme:prime <task description>

The task description is free text. The longer and more specific, the better mneme can match relevant vault content.

What it does

Calls the mneme_prime MCP tool with the supplied task description. The tool returns a markdown bundle that contains:

  • The most recent session-typed vault documents.
  • Vault documents whose content matches tokens in the task description.

Both selections are formatted with vault paths so you can navigate to source content directly. The bundle is truncated to fit within the configured token budget (default 4000 tokens).

When to use

  • Starting a new session that picks up a long-running thread.
  • Switching topics mid-session and wanting Claude oriented before the first prompt.
  • Before a code review session where prior decisions matter.
  • /mneme:recall to fetch a specific session by id or date.
  • /mneme:migrate to bring data over from another memory plugin.
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.

prime is a command published in the GitHub repository OnourImpram/mneme (2 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 228 tokens. 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.
