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 C, and why

install scanned grade C with 2 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.

What it actually says

m3-memory install / upgrade

Step 1 — detect current state. Try in order:

mcp-memory --version                       # plain CLI
python -m m3_memory.cli --version           # module form (Windows --user)

Step 2 — branch on what step 1 printed.

Not installed (both commands fail):

  • On Linux / macOS, suggest:
    curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/skynetcmd/m3-memory/main/install.sh | bash
    
  • On Windows, suggest:
    pip install --user m3-memory
    # then add %APPDATA%\Python\Python<NN>\Scripts to user PATH if needed
    
    Link them to https://github.com/skynetcmd/m3-memory/blob/main/docs/install_windows.md for full instructions.

After install completes, tell the user to re-run /m3:health in a NEW Claude Code session (PATH changes don't apply to the current one).

Already installed (a version printed):

  • On Linux / macOS, run:
    pipx upgrade m3-memory
    mcp-memory update
    
  • On Windows, run:
    pip install --user --upgrade m3-memory
    python -m m3_memory.cli update
    
  • Then /m3:health to verify.

Step 3 — print one-line summary of what action was taken or recommended.

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.
