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 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 — 129 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Memory Management

Manage the auto-memory system for the Ambient Code Platform project.

Usage

/memory                    # Show summary of all memories
/memory search <query>     # Search for a topic
/memory audit              # Check for stale/duplicate memories
/memory prune              # Remove stale memories (with confirmation)
/memory add <topic>        # Create a new memory

User Input

$ARGUMENTS

Parse the subcommand from $ARGUMENTS. Default to summary if empty.

Memory Location

All memory files live at:

$HOME/.claude/projects/<project-slug>/memory/

Use the active project's slug (the repo path with / replaced by -).

The index file is MEMORY.md in that directory.

Subcommands

/memory — Summary

  1. Read MEMORY.md to get the index
  2. Count total memories by type (user, feedback, project, reference)
  3. List the most recently modified files
  4. Report: total count, breakdown by type, last modified dates

/memory search <query>

  1. Read MEMORY.md for the index
  2. Grep through all memory files for the query term
  3. Read matching files and show relevant excerpts
  4. Report: matching files with frontmatter (name, type, description)

/memory audit

Check for quality issues:

  1. Stale memories — project/reference memories older than 3 months may be outdated
  2. Duplicate memories — similar names or descriptions across files
  3. Missing frontmatter — files without proper name, description, type fields
  4. Orphaned files — memory files not referenced in MEMORY.md
  5. Broken links — MEMORY.md entries pointing to nonexistent files
  6. Oversized index — MEMORY.md approaching the 200-line truncation limit

Report each issue with the file path and suggested action.

/memory prune

  1. Run the audit checks
  2. Present findings to the user
  3. For each stale/duplicate/orphaned memory, ask: keep, update, or delete?
  4. Execute confirmed deletions
  5. Update MEMORY.md index accordingly

Files

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
