neurodivergent-memory copilot-instructions.md

neurodivergent-memory copilot-instructions.md is an instructions file for GitHub Copilot from jmeyer1980/neurodivergent-memory. It costs 1,325 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Instructions for using neurodivergent-memory, an MCP server that stores and retrieves memories as a connected knowledge graph. It organises memories into topic areas and uses tags to make related information easier to find.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when an agent works with the neurodivergent-memory server, especially when storing memories, applying its tag scheme, or searching its knowledge graph.
Why use it?
It gives coding agents a consistent way to save, connect, and retrieve project knowledge across sessions. This reduces the need to reload the same background information repeatedly.

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

neurodivergent-memory copilot-instructions.md 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 5d 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.

neurodivergent-memory — Agent Bootstrap Instructions

This file is automatically read by GitHub Copilot and compatible agents at the start of every session. It replaces the need to fetch the governance memory (memory_11) before working with this MCP server.


What this server is

neurodivergent-memory is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that stores and retrieves memories as a knowledge graph. It is designed for neurodivergent thinking patterns: non-linear, associative, tag-rich.

Memories are organised into five districts (knowledge domains) and connected via bidirectional edges. Search uses BM25 semantic ranking — no embedding model or cloud LLM required.


Canonical Tag Schema

Always apply tags from the five namespaces below when calling store_memory. Multiple tags from different namespaces are expected on every memory. When storing execution-heavy memories, include the reasoning behind the action and, when possible, connect the entry to a durable principle in logical_analysis or creative_synthesis so future retrieval preserves understanding and not just activity.

Namespace Purpose Examples
topic:X Subject matter / domain topic:unity-ecs, topic:adhd-strategies, topic:rust-async
scope:X Breadth of the memory scope:concept, scope:project, scope:session, scope:global
kind:X Type of knowledge kind:insight, kind:decision, kind:pattern, kind:reference, kind:task
layer:X Abstraction level layer:architecture, layer:implementation, layer:debugging, layer:research
persistence:X Sync tier eligibility persistence:durable (promote to user/org), persistence:ephemeral (project-only)

Example tag set for a Unity ECS memory:

["topic:unity-ecs", "topic:dots", "scope:project", "kind:pattern", "layer:architecture"]

Example tag set for a cross-project durable memory:

["topic:typescript", "scope:global", "kind:pattern", "layer:architecture", "persistence:durable"]

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.

neurodivergent-memory copilot-instructions.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository jmeyer1980/neurodivergent-memory (18 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 1,325 tokens to every session, about $0.0066 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.
