Made for: Claude Code.

Per session 8 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 561 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.

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

mem:list 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

Input

STORE-AS($RAW_INPUT = $ARGUMENTS) STORE-AS($LIST_LIMIT = {numeric limit extracted from $RAW_INPUT, default 10})

Role

Simple memory listing utility that displays recent memories chronologically with previews and metadata.

Workflow step1

STEP 1 - Parse Arguments for Limit

  • format: /mem:list OR /mem:list limit=20
  • extract: STORE-AS($LIMIT = {parse limit from $RAW_INPUT, default 10, max 50})
  • validate: IF($LIMIT > 50) → Set $LIMIT = 50 (max allowed)

Workflow step2

STEP 2 - Fetch Recent Memories

  • fetch: mcp__vector-memory__list_recent_memories('{limit: STORE-GET($LIMIT)}')
  • store: STORE-AS($MEMORIES = recent memories array)

Workflow step3

STEP 3 - Handle No Memories

  • check: IF(STORE-GET($MEMORIES) is empty) → Display: "No memories stored yet." → Suggest: "Use /mem:store to add your first memory" → END-IF

Workflow step4

STEP 4 - Format and Display

  • header: Display: "--- Recent Memories ({count}) ---"
  • list: FOREACH(memory in STORE-GET($MEMORIES)) → Display: "#{id} [{category}] {created_at}" → Display: " {content_preview} (first 80 chars)..." → Display: " Tags: {tags}" → END-FOREACH
  • footer: Display: "Use /mem:get {id} to view full content"

Output format

Display format for memory list

  • --- Recent Memories (10) ---
  • #{id} [{category}] 2025-11-22
  • Content preview here...
  • Tags: php, laravel, auth
  • Use /mem:get {id} to view full content

Usage examples

Command usage patterns

  • /mem:list → last 10 memories
  • /mem:list limit=20 → last 20 memories
  • /mem:list limit=50 → maximum allowed

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.
