Add temporal context memory to agent workflows with Zep

Add temporal context memory to agent workflows with Zep is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from agentskillexchange/skills. It costs 40 tokens per session (497 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An external memory layer for AI agents that stores events, builds context from their timeline, and retrieves relevant information before a model call. Zep is the service and SDK used to provide that context.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to add memory to agents built with LangChain, LlamaIndex, AutoGen, or a custom service. It requires a Zep Cloud account and either the Python or TypeScript Zep SDK.
Why use it?
Agents can lose important information between interactions or struggle to assemble the right history for a request. Storing and retrieving relevant events gives the workflow additional context before generating a response.

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

Add temporal context memory to agent workflows with Zep 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 12d 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 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.
