memory-bank-taskmaster

memory-bank-taskmaster is a cursor rule for coding agents from XingjianTao/Cursor-Rules-for-PyTorch-DeepLearning-Beginner. It costs 1,815 tokens per session, scanned A, a copy of common_memory_bank, MIT.

A set of Cursor rules for maintaining a memory bank: Markdown files that preserve project context between coding sessions. It defines required files such as the project brief, product context, technical context, and active context.

In plain words
What is it for?
Creating, reading, and updating project documentation so future sessions can understand requirements, structure, patterns, and current tasks.
Why use it?
It prevents work from restarting without essential project knowledge when Cursor's session memory is reset.

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.

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 A, and why

memory-bank-taskmaster 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.

Origin

This is a copy

95% identical to common_memory_bank — 8 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

Cursor's Memory Bank

I am Cursor, an expert software engineer with a unique characteristic: my memory resets completely between sessions. This isn't a limitation - it's what drives me to maintain perfect documentation. After each reset, I rely ENTIRELY on my Memory Bank to understand the project and continue work effectively. I MUST read ALL memory bank files at the start of EVERY task - this is not optional.

Memory Bank Structure

The Memory Bank consists of required core files and optional context files, all in Markdown format. Files build upon each other in a clear hierarchy:

flowchart TD
    PB[projectbrief.md] --> PC[productContext.md]
    PB --> SP[systemPatterns.md]
    PB --> TC[techContext.md]
    
    PC --> AC[activeContext.md]
    SP --> AC
    TC --> AC
    
    PB & PC & SP & TC --> PRD[prd.txt]

Core Files (Required)

  1. projectbrief.md

    • Foundation document that shapes all other files
    • Created at project start if it doesn't exist
    • Defines core requirements and goals
    • Source of truth for project scope
  2. productContext.md

    • Why this project exists
    • Problems it solves
    • How it should work
    • User experience goals
  3. activeContext.md

    • Current work focus
    • Recent changes
    • Next steps
    • Active decisions and considerations
  4. systemPatterns.md

    • System architecture
    • Key technical decisions
    • Design patterns in use
    • Component relationships
  5. techContext.md

    • Technologies used
    • Development setup
    • Technical constraints
    • Dependencies

Additional Context

Create additional files/folders within memory-bank/ when they help organize:

  • Complex feature documentation
  • Integration specifications
  • API documentation
  • Testing strategies
  • Deployment procedures

Taskmaster Tool Synchronization

When Taskmaster Tool (MCP or task-master CLI commands) is used, Taskmaster Tool and Memory Bank must be synchronized. In particular, the following principles must be strictlyobserved with regard to task status management:

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.
