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.

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 | $0.00008 | $0.00212 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00004 | $0.00106 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00002 | $0.00042 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00001 | $0.00021 |
Grade A, and why
cortex-recommend 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
Generate optimization recommendations from the Cortex knowledge graph.
First, run consolidation analysis:
cd ~/.claude/knowledge && python -m brainiac consolidate
Then run stats for context:
cd ~/.claude/knowledge && python -m brainiac stats
Analyze the results and present recommendations sorted by priority:
- Merge candidates (>0.9 similarity) — nodes that should be combined to reduce redundancy
- Abstraction candidates (3+ similar nodes) — clusters that need a higher-level summary node
- Stale nodes (60+ days, few connections) — knowledge that may be outdated
For each recommendation, provide:
- Priority level (critical / optimize / suggest)
- Specific action to take
- Estimated impact (token savings, clarity improvement)
Also check the current project's CLAUDE.md for any conventions that could be captured as patterns but aren't in the graph yet.
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.

cortex-recommend is a command published in the GitHub repository Peaky8linders/claude-cortex (11 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 8 tokens to every session and 212 once invoked, about $0.0000 per session on Opus 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 2026-08-30.
