A set of instructions for using state-memory-mcp, a tool that records tasks, decisions, blockers, and workflow progress in a project graph.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when working on state-memory-mcp projects that need task tracking, dependency tracing, blocker checks, and recorded decisions.
Why use it?
It provides a required order for checking project state and keeps work traceable across coding sessions.

Instructions file for Claude Code

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

This is putervision/state-memory-mcp's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on state-memory-mcp 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 state-memory-mcp 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 B, and why

state-memory-mcp CLAUDE.md scanned grade B with 1 finding 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.

State Memory (state-memory-mcp)

This project tracks workflow state, tasks, design decisions, and blockers using state-memory-mcp with project slug "state-memory-mcp".

1. Priority Order

Before doing any coding or investigation:

  1. manage_sessions(action: "start") — Start a tracking session for full change attribution.
  2. get_analytics(action: "summary") — Run to understand current project state, active branches, and overall progress.
  3. manage_tasks(action: "next") — Query prioritized runnable tasks.
  4. manage_tasks(action: "find_blockers") — Identify any active blockers preventing progress.
  5. manage_nodes(action: "list") — Find pending tasks, past decisions, or milestones.
  6. query_graph(action: "trace") — Trace what depends on or blocks a task.

2. When to Write to the Graph

You MUST update the graph as you work:

  • Starting a session: Always call manage_sessions(action: "start", agent_id: "my-agent") to track all mutations under a unique session.
  • Starting a new task: Create a node with manage_nodes(action: "create", type: "task", title: "...", session_id: session_id).
  • Making a design or implementation decision: Document it with manage_nodes(action: "create", type: "decision", title: "...", metadata: { "rationale": "..." }, session_id: session_id).
  • Connecting UI tasks to visual states: Use manage_edges(action: "link_visual", target_id: task_id, visual_state_id: vs_id, relationship: "renders_state").
  • Encountering a blocker: Record the blocker with manage_nodes(action: "create", type: "blocker", ..., session_id: session_id) and connect it using manage_edges(action: "add", type: "blocks", source_id: blocker_id, target_id: task_id, session_id: session_id).
  • Adding observation notes: Atomically log notes using manage_nodes(action: "add_note", text: "...", attach_to: node_id).
  • Batch updates: Bulk update tasks/nodes using manage_nodes(action: "batch_update", ids: ["..."], status: "done").
  • Observability & Trajectories: Check manage_data(action: "export_synergy_metrics") for combined token savings & health, and manage_data(action: "export_joint_trajectories") for interleaved fine-tuning datasets.
  • Completing a task: Update status to done using manage_tasks(action: "complete", task_id: task_id).
  • Creating/generating a new file: Create an artifact node with manage_nodes(action: "create", type: "artifact", ..., session_id: session_id) and connect it using manage_edges(action: "add", type: "produces", ..., session_id: session_id).

Changes

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.
