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-capture 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 today.

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.

Memory Capture Skill

Unified memory capture skill that routes to two execution modes:

  • Compact: Compress full session memory into structured text for recovery
  • Tips: Quick note-taking for ideas, snippets, and insights

Execution Flow

Step 1: Parse Input & Route

Detect execution mode from user input:

Auto-Route Rules (priority order):

Signal Route Examples
Keyword: compact, session, 压缩, recovery, 保存会话 → Compact "compact current session"
Keyword: tip, note, 记录, 快速 → Tips "记录一个想法"
Has --tag or --context flags → Tips "note content" --tag bug
Short text (<100 chars) + no session keywords → Tips "Remember to use Redis"
Ambiguous or no arguments AskUserQuestion /memory-capture

When ambiguous, use AskUserQuestion:

Question: "选择记忆捕获模式"
Options:
  1. Compact - 压缩当前完整会话记忆(用于会话恢复)
  2. Tips - 快速记录一条笔记/想法/提示

Step 2: Execute Selected Phase

Based on routing result, read and execute the corresponding phase:

Phase Reference Documents (read on-demand when phase executes):

Mode Document Purpose
Compact phases/01-compact.md Full session memory compression and structured export
Tips phases/02-tips.md Quick note-taking with tags and context

What ships with it

2 files 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.

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.
