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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00042 | $0.00632 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00017 | $0.00253 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00126 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00063 |
Grade A, and why
memory-metabolism 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.

Memory Metabolism
Purpose
Keep durable memory useful over time. This skill adapts external reference active-maintenance and memory metabolism ideas into Stram's model-led memory curation path.
When To Use
Use when the user asks to clean memory, summarize past work, forget outdated details, preserve lessons, or review whether memory is helping current tasks.
Inputs And Evidence
memory_summaryfor recent or period-based history.memory_searchfor specific topics.cognitive_memory_curateproposals.- Current goals, commitments, persona, and skill records.
- User-stated preferences about remembering or forgetting.
Tool Map

Workflow
- Define the curation purpose: retain, summarize, archive, forget, deduplicate, or audit.
- Gather current memory records relevant to that purpose.
- Use model-led curation for semantic decisions about value and staleness.
- Preserve exact evidence references for memories that remain.
- Archive or forget only when evidence is obsolete, unsupported, user-requested, or superseded.
- Report what changed and what was intentionally left untouched.
Safety And Boundaries
- Never delete or alter memory solely because it is inconvenient.
- Respect explicit user forget requests while preserving audit requirements.
- Do not infer sensitive stable facts from weak evidence.
Safety And Approval
- Treat memory writes, curation, archiving, and forgetting as durable state changes.
- Keep explicit user forget requests high priority, while preserving any required audit trace.
- Do not promote sensitive, protected, medical, legal, financial, or identity-related facts unless clearly useful and evidence-supported.
- Do not let memory cleanup remove active commitments, unresolved blockers, or live-task context.
Native Implementation Boundaries
- Use Stram memory summary/search/write/profile and cognitive memory curation tools.
- external reference memory-metabolism ideas are reference patterns; retention, summarization, and forgetting decisions must be model-led through native curation.
- Deterministic code validates records and stores evidence, but must not infer semantic staleness or user preferences without the model or explicit user instruction.
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.

memory-metabolism is a skill published in the GitHub repository CodeInfinity1/Stram (11 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 42 tokens to every session and 632 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
