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.

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 5.1 | $0.03595 | $0.03595 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.01438 | $0.01438 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00719 | $0.00719 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00360 | $0.00360 |
Grade A, and why
140-unified-command-interface 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 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.
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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 541 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
TL;DR: The Unified Command Interface provides a standardized command structure for all Memory Bank operations, ensuring consistent interaction patterns and predictable behavior across different contexts.
1.0.0
```
BIG [category] [command] [parameters] [--options]
```
Where:
- **BIG**: Universal command prefix indicating Memory Bank operation
- **category**: Functional area (memory, workflow, verification, etc.)
- **command**: Specific operation within the category
- **parameters**: Required command inputs in fixed order
- **options**: Optional flags modifying command behavior
Examples:
```
BIG memory read projectbrief.md --section requirements
BIG workflow plan "Database schema design" --complexity 3
BIG verify consistency --focus architecture
```
This structure ensures consistent command patterns across all interactions.
1. **memory**
- Core memory file operations
- Example: `BIG memory update activeContext.md`
2. **workflow**
- Task process management
- Example: `BIG workflow start act-mode`
3. **verify**
- Verification and validation
- Example: `BIG verify consistency`
4. **system**
- System configuration and management
- Example: `BIG system status`
5. **bedtime**
- Bedtime protocol operations
- Example: `BIG bedtime prepare`
6. **help**
- Documentation and assistance
- Example: `BIG help commands`
7. **creative**
- Creative phase operations
- Example: `BIG creative evaluate design1.md`
Each category has standardized commands and parameter patterns.
**Memory Operations**
- `BIG memory read [file] [--section] [--format]`
- `BIG memory write [file] [content] [--append]`
- `BIG memory update [file] [--section] [content]`
- `BIG memory search [query] [--files] [--context]`
- `BIG memory list [--type] [--status]`
**Workflow Operations**
- `BIG workflow start [mode] [--complexity]`
- `BIG workflow switch [mode]`
- `BIG workflow status`
- `BIG workflow track [section] [--status]`
- `BIG workflow checkpoint [description]`
**Verification Operations**
- `BIG verify files [--focus]`
- `BIG verify consistency [--scope]`
- `BIG verify references [--file]`
- `BIG verify structure [--files]`
- `BIG verify health [--detail]`
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.

140-unified-command-interface is a cursor rule published in the GitHub repository savagelysubtle/BIG-BRAIN-Memory-Bank (5 stars, last pushed 1y ago), licensed MIT. It adds 3,595 tokens to every session, about $0.0144 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-08-31.

wrapup
End-of-session wrap-up: summarizes the session and pushes a log to the project's linked NotebookLM notebook. Activate with @wrapup in chat, or "wrap up", "save this session", or "end of session".

Web build conventions (separate from native and RN JS).
components
Component patterns and UI conventions.
git
Git workflow and commit conventions.
approved-plan-execution
Guard execution of an approved plan or burndown: forbid reward hacking and feature deletion; require checkpoints, context discipline, safe terminal use, and fresh verification. Applies to approved plan-.md, complete-everything, and burndown-full runs, whatever model runs them.
