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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5 | $0.00150 | $0.00150 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00075 | $0.00075 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00030 | $0.00030 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00015 | $0.00015 |
Grade A, and why
cursor-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 4d 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
Shokunin Memory Instructions
This project uses ChromaDB for persistent memory between sessions.
On Session Start
- Search memory for relevant context
- Present past session highlights to the user
- Session ID is at
~/.shokunin/current-session.json
During Session
- Save checkpoint every 3-5 interactions
- Save after: decisions, file changes, commands, preferences
- Use:
python ~/.shokunin/scripts/chroma-helper.py save
On Session End
- Save complete summary with type "session_end"
- Include: decisions, files, commands, next steps
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.

cursor-memory is a cursor rule published in the GitHub repository EliasOulkadi/shokunin (113 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 150 tokens to every session, about $0.0007 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.

cursor-rules
You have access to a persistent cross-session memory via the memory MCP server. Knowledge survives between sessions and is shared across agents working on the same project.

Prefer extracting a testable core over vi.mock / vi.resetModules when unit tests need to reach production logic entangled with config, env, or singletons.
