What is SessionStart?

A session-start hook that runs a Python script through the uv tool whenever a coding-agent session begins. The script is supplied by the plugin.

Starting the plugin's save-preparation script quietly, with a five-second timeout, at the beginning of each session.

It automates the plugin's session initialization and continuous-save preparation instead of requiring a manual command.

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.

Clone the repo

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/wallneradam/project-mem-mcp

Or install project-mem, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 2 skills, 1 command, 1 agent, 4 hooks.

Security

Grade A, and why

SessionStart 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 commands this hook runs, not an audit. A hook is shell that executes on your machine at the event it names, which is why every command in it is printed with what was found.

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 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.
