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 | $0.00017 | $0.00954 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00382 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00191 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00095 |
Grade C, and why
c-memory scanned grade C with 2 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.
Reads agent configuration directoriesmediumAgent snooping
.claude/, .codex/, .gemini/ hold keys, settings and other credentials a mod has no legitimate need for.

Other skills' SKILL.md files reveal prompts, capabilities and secrets that should be invisible to peers.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 119 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Memory — Persistent Context
Store and recall facts, preferences, and context across Claude Code sessions.
How It Works
Memory lives in ~/.claude/memory/ as plain markdown files. Read them at session start, write to them when you learn something important.
Directory Structure
~/.claude/memory/
├── MEMORY.md # Key facts — always read this first
├── people.md # People the user mentions (names, roles, preferences)
├── preferences.md # User preferences (tools, workflows, habits)
├── projects.md # Active projects and their context
└── journal.md # Session log — append-only, dated entries
Session Start
At the beginning of every session, read ~/.claude/memory/MEMORY.md to load context. This file should be concise — under 100 lines.
When to Save
Save to memory when the user:
- Shares their name, role, or preferences
- Mentions people they work with
- Describes a project or recurring task
- Says "remember this" or "don't forget"
- Corrects you about something
Writing Rules
- MEMORY.md: Key facts only. Keep under 100 lines. Update, don't append.
- people.md: Name, role, relationship, preferences. One section per person.
- preferences.md: Tools, workflows, communication preferences.
- projects.md: Project name, status, key files, context.
- journal.md: Append a dated entry at the end of each session summarizing what was done.
Commands
# Read memory
cat ~/.claude/memory/MEMORY.md
# List memory files
ls ~/.claude/memory/
# Append to journal
echo "## $(date +%Y-%m-%d)" >> ~/.claude/memory/journal.md
Example MEMORY.md
# Memory
## User
- Name: Alex
- Role: Frontend developer
- Prefers TypeScript, uses Neovim
- Timezone: PST
## Active Projects
- ctrl.build — DeFi workflow automation (Next.js + Solidity)
- openpaw — CLI tool for Claude Code setup
## Preferences
- Concise responses, no emoji unless asked
- Always use bun instead of npm
- Dark mode everything
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.

c-memory is a skill published in the GitHub repository daxaur/openpaw (173 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 17 tokens to every session and 954 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it C with 2 findings (reads agent configuration directories, enumerates other installed skills). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.

save-learning
Saves user instructions as persistent learnings for future sessions. Use when the user says 'remember this', 'always do X', 'from now on', 'never do Y', or gives any instruction they want persisted across sessions. Proactively suggest when the user states a preference, convention, or rule they clearly want followed in…
shodh-memory
Persistent memory system for AI agents. Use this skill to remember context across conversations, recall relevant information, and build long-term knowledge. Activate when you need to store decisions, learnings, errors, or context that should persist beyond the current session.
memory
Persistent, token-efficient project memory. When ON, maintains a .shob/memory/ folder of structured .md files so the full context of the project is NEVER lost across responses, sessions, or context compaction. Uses progressive disclosure — routes through a lightweight INDEX and loads only the files a task needs…
atomic-wiki
Conversational wiki and capture-bucket routing. Fires when the user wants a place, space, or folder for notes, research, tickets, raw dumps, or knowledge capture — checks the block in /.claude/CLAUDE.md; if the cwd is under a registered realm, creates the folder as a bucket via atomic wiki bucket add rather than a…
kb-memory
Use when knowledge base and memory system for AI agents. Covers company KB, persistent memory, session recall, and brain architecture for context preservation.
ai-session-search
Search, recover, inspect, export, and analyze local AI session history with AI Session Search (aise) across Claude Code, Claude Desktop local agent, Codex, Cursor, Antigravity, Pi coding agent, Prime Agent, Google AI Studio, and Gemini CLI. Use when asked to "find prior AI work", "recover context after compaction"…
