Engram is a local or cloud-backed memory system for AI coding agents, provided as a single Go binary with SQLite full-text search and interfaces including a command line, HTTP API, MCP server, and terminal UI. It helps compatible coding agents retain project decisions, bugs, conventions, and other useful context across sessions. The catalogue add-ons configure and operate Engram’s memory workflows.
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.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

engram 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.
What it actually says
{

"description": "Persistent memory for AI coding agents. Survives across sessions and compactions.",

What it installs
The manifest is a name and a version. 1 skill, 6 hooks travel with it, and installing the plugin installs all of them — 31 tokens a session between them. Each is measured on its own page, and each can be installed alone.
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.

engram is a plugin published in the GitHub repository Gentleman-Programming/engram (7,815 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. Its token cost is not measured: this kind of file is read by the harness, not the model. 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.
