zephyr-storage

zephyr-storage is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ksachdeva/zephyr-rtos-ai. It costs 98 tokens per session (939 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

Embedded-system guidance for saving data directly to flash memory with Zephyr's NVS and ZMS storage systems. These systems keep small values across restarts using numeric identifiers.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to save and load settings or other values with numeric IDs, configure flash storage, choose between NVS and ZMS, and plan for flash wear.
Why use it?
It helps choose a storage system and account for flash partitions, write limits, data integrity, and the effect of repeated writes on device lifetime.

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

zephyr-storage 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 10d 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.

Zephyr Storage Skill

Quick Decision: NVS vs ZMS

What hardware are you targeting?
├── Classical NOR flash (most MCUs) → Use NVS
├── RRAM/MRAM (no erase required) → Use ZMS
├── Need >64K unique IDs → Use ZMS (supports 32/64-bit IDs)
└── Unsure → Use NVS (battle-tested default)
Feature NVS ZMS
ID size 16-bit (65K max) 32-bit or 64-bit
Best for Classical flash RRAM, MRAM, large flash
Erase optimization Standard Single-write erase (256x faster on RRAM)
ATE size 8 bytes 16 bytes
Data CRC Optional Built-in (in ATE)
Small data optimization No Yes (data stored in ATE if <=8 bytes)
Status Stable, widely used Newer, recommended for new designs

When to Use This Skill vs zephyr-settings

Use Case Skill
Store data with numeric IDs zephyr-storage (this skill)
Store data with string keys (e.g., wifi/ssid) zephyr-settings
Direct flash control needed zephyr-storage
Integration with Bluetooth/Shell settings zephyr-settings
Maximum performance, minimal overhead zephyr-storage

Basic Usage Pattern

Both NVS and ZMS follow the same pattern:

#include <zephyr/fs/nvs.h>  // or <zephyr/fs/zms.h>

// 1. Define storage structure
static struct nvs_fs fs;  // or struct zms_fs

// 2. Configure and mount
fs.flash_device = FIXED_PARTITION_DEVICE(storage_partition);
fs.offset = FIXED_PARTITION_OFFSET(storage_partition);
fs.sector_size = /* flash page size */;
fs.sector_count = 3;  // minimum 2
nvs_mount(&fs);  // or zms_mount()

// 3. Read/Write/Delete
nvs_write(&fs, ID, data, len);
nvs_read(&fs, ID, buffer, len);
nvs_delete(&fs, ID);

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.

zephyr-storage is a skill published in the GitHub repository ksachdeva/zephyr-rtos-ai (23 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 98 tokens to every session and 939 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 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 2026-08-30.
