aoa-memo-writeback

aoa-memo-writeback is a skill for Codex from 8Dionysus/aoa-skills. It costs 95 tokens per session (1,672 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guarded process for deciding whether completed or ongoing work contains a lesson worth preserving as a memo. It can create or route a first local memo candidate when no memo artifact exists yet.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after work, reviews, pull requests, releases, or recurring corrections to decide whether to record a durable owner lesson.
Why use it?
It prevents session history from being saved as trusted memory without checking its evidence, owner, and destination.

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

aoa-memo-writeback 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 2d 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.

Intent

Preserve the first writeback judgment that the previous consolidation removed: notice when live or closing work produced a bounded lesson worth remembering, decide its real owner, and create or route its first guarded artifact without turning session history into memory truth.

Trigger boundary

Use this skill when:

  • a live session, closeout, PR, diff, review, release, or recurring correction may contain a durable owner lesson not captured by the final artifact alone, and no concrete memo candidate, export, or memory object exists yet
  • the decision is still whether to write a local candidate, prepare an export, record route-only debt, request owner review, or write nothing
  • the caller explicitly authorizes creation of the first guarded local candidate from inspectable work evidence

Do not use this skill when:

  • the task is eval-trigger/session-case mining, .aoa preservation/index repair, generic session harvest, review of an existing candidate/export/ quarantine packet/object, corpus recall or lifecycle work, direct durable aoa-memo landing, or proof/scoring work

Inputs

  • likely owner and stronger owner; task/closeout/landed-work context; inspectable session, source, PR, review, or receipt refs; local memo-port status; privacy, freshness, review posture, and confirmation that no concrete memo artifact already represents this writeback

Outputs

  • one memo_writeback_decision: write_candidate, prepare_export, no_writeback_needed, route_only_debt, needs_owner_review, or blocked or owner_handoff
  • when authorized, one guarded owner-local candidate or reviewed export packet; otherwise a no-write stop line or route-only debt with inspectable refs

Procedure

  1. Before reading this bundle, inspect only the request. If it already names or supplies a concrete candidate, export, quarantine packet, memory object, corpus identity, lifecycle target, or memory read-model target, do not load this skill. Select aoa-memo directly.
  2. After selection, the first tool turn must read only this bundle's SKILL.md from the exact absolute package path observed in the host catalog or returned by a verified owner resolver. Use that loaded package path as the source root for the references below. Catalog syntax such as file: is only a locator presentation; a normalized absolute path is sufficient. Do not reconstruct the path from a presumed skill root, .system, $CODEX_HOME, the workspace, or the skill name. Do not combine the read with pwd, AGENTS, workspace inspection, or another command. An absent, malformed, non-absolute, or ambiguous catalog/resolver identity is blocked_package_path_not_observed before any other package or workspace action.

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.
