better-memory

better-memory is a plugin for Claude Code from xobotyi/cc-foundry. Its manifest loads nothing; the 1 skill it bundles cost 52 tokens per session together, scanned A, original, MIT.

A Claude Code plugin that keeps auto-memory focused on facts that remain true. It controls memory writes, requires supporting anchors, maintains MEMORY.md, and can review new entries when a session is idle.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to guard memory writes, keep the memory index updated, and sift new or unchecked entries during idle time.
Why use it?
It reduces the risk that temporary or incorrect notes will affect later sessions, while leaving entries for review when automatic review is disabled.

Security

Grade A, and why

better-memory 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 yesterday.

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 installs

The manifest is a name and a version. 1 skill travel with it, and installing the plugin installs all of them — 52 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.
