recall

recall is a skill for Claude Code from edwin-hao-ai/Awareness-SDK. It costs 16 tokens per session (436 once invoked), scanned B, original, Apache-2.0.

A memory-search skill for finding past implementations, decisions, and related project context. It rewrites short queries into clearer questions before searching.

In plain words
What is it for?
Looking up why a technical choice was made, finding earlier solutions, and retrieving project knowledge related to a current task.
Why use it?
It helps you recover relevant background instead of repeating investigations or making decisions without earlier context.

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 B, and why

recall scanned grade B 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 9d 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.

Sends data to an external URLmediumData exfiltration

A POST to an outside endpoint may be telemetry or may be exfiltration; either way the mod talks to somewhere, and you should know where.

What it actually says

Search Awareness Memory for relevant context.

Query: $ARGUMENTS

How to call Awareness tools

Try MCP tools first (awareness_recall). If MCP tools are NOT available, use Bash to call the local daemon HTTP API directly:

# F-053: single-parameter — daemon picks scope/mode/detail/weights.
curl -s -X POST http://localhost:37800/mcp -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"awareness_recall","arguments":{"query":"why did we pick pgvector?","limit":10}}}'

The response is JSON-RPC: result.content[0].text contains the tool output as JSON string.

Steps

  1. REWRITE the user query into a complete natural-language question with context. Example: "auth bug" → "authentication bug in login flow, JWT token handling, session management"

  2. Call awareness_recall with ONE parameter:

    • query: the rewritten natural-language question
    • (optional) limit: default 6, max 30
    • (optional) token_budget: 5K (default, card-heavy) / 30K (mixed) / 60K+ (raw-heavy)

    Daemon auto-routes across memories + knowledge cards + workspace graph and picks the right detail level for your token budget. You do NOT need to choose scope, recall_mode, detail, ids, or weights.

  3. Present results clearly:

    • Existing implementations that can be reused (include file paths)
    • Architectural decisions already made
    • Related past work and warnings

Rules:

  • Pass ONE query string — daemon handles the rest.
  • If results are empty, say so clearly — do not hallucinate.
  • Do not dump raw JSON — summarize in plain language.

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.

recall is a skill published in the GitHub repository edwin-hao-ai/Awareness-SDK (9 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 16 tokens to every session and 436 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 2 findings (sends data to an external url, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
