memtomem-stm: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

memtomem-stm CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from memtomem/memtomem-stm. It costs 601 tokens per session, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

Repository instructions for memtomem-stm, a short-term memory proxy that connects software to an MCP service for temporary memory. They document required checks and rules for editing the project.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when changing memtomem-stm, validating its documentation, running its Python checks, or testing its tutorial and mocked Ollama integrations.
Why use it?
They help an agent follow the project’s Python version, cross-platform requirements, documentation checks, linting, type checking, and test commands.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md. Also seen: mentions Claude Code.

This is memtomem/memtomem-stm's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on memtomem-stm itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything memtomem-stm configures →

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

memtomem-stm CLAUDE.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 6d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 44 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Claude Code notes — memtomem-stm

Short-term memory MCP proxy. What it does → README.md; setup and layout → CONTRIBUTING.md; architecture → docs/. This file holds only what must be known before reading those — everything else is a pointer, not a copy.

Commands

Requires Python 3.12+ and uv.

uv sync                                                    # install deps
uv run pytest -m "not bench_qa_meta and not bench_qa_llm_judge and not bench_qa_sweep and not bench_qa_drift and not bench_qa_perf"  # tests (CI filter)
uv run ruff check src && uv run ruff format --check src    # lint (required)
uv run mypy src                                            # typecheck (required)
uv run pytest tests/test_docs_sync.py tests/test_docs_links.py  # docs contracts
uv run pytest --nbmake notebooks/01_quickstart_proxy_setup.ipynb --nbmake-timeout=180  # public tutorial

ruff, mypy, and tests gate merge — on Windows too, so POSIX-only stdlib (fcntl, os.killpg, …) needs a sys.platform guard mypy can narrow. Live-Ollama tests are out of scope: Ollama paths are tested with mocked transport / dead ports only (#637).

Invariants when editing

  • No Python-level dependency on memtomem core. Don't import memtomem from src/ — STM reaches LTM only over MCP.
  • mmsmemtomem-stm-proxymemtomem-stm. Three entry points, one Click group; registering any of them as an MCP client's command must work identically. Dispatch rules: the cli group docstring in src/memtomem_stm/cli/proxy.py (#260).
  • Pipeline order is CLEAN → COMPRESS → SURFACE, plus an optional INDEX stage for custom embedders. Per-stage contracts: comments in src/memtomem_stm/proxy/ — authoritative, don't restate them here.
  • Line length 100, target py312.
  • .claude/ and scripts/ are gitignored except the tracked scripts/audit-dependencies.sh (release/CI gate) and scripts/core_compat_smoke.py (advisory compat check). Don't commit other files under them, and don't assume contributors share your local contents.
  • One focused change per PR, branched from main, with tests for new behavior and a commit message explaining the "why". Full checklist: CONTRIBUTING.md.

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.
