curating-memory-palace

curating-memory-palace is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from letta-ai/letta-code. It costs 111 tokens per session (3,005 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A set of rules for maintaining a Memory Palace, a dashboard page that shows an agent's current work, problems, recent changes, and possible next actions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when creating or editing the page, handling Palace actions, recording blockers, showing broken routines, or suggesting ways to improve the agent.
Why use it?
It keeps the page useful as a quick status view instead of letting it become a log or transcript summary. It also gives updates a consistent structure.

About the project

letta-ai/letta-code is an agent harness for building assistants that retain memory, identity, and experience across interactions instead of treating each task as isolated. Developers use it through local, desktop, browser, or messaging interfaces for interactive or continuously running agents, and its catalogue entries configure the agents' skills, instructions, rules, and behavior.

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

curating-memory-palace 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 16d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 148 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Curating the Memory Palace

The Memory Palace is the page a user opens to understand you. Someone who has not looked in a week should know within 30 seconds:

  1. Where things stand: what you are working on, which routines are running or broken, and what changed recently.
  2. What you could do next, and why: work you noticed you can take on or pick back up.
  3. How to make you better or more independent: one click to unblock you, fill a gap, or let you handle something on your own from now on.

The user acts on it with buttons and replies. It is not a log, a transcript recap, or a page about the Palace itself.

You can update the Palace yourself, in a conversation or during reflection, or an update can run on a schedule. Either works, and both follow these rules. "You" always means the agent that owns the Palace.

Sections

Every Palace starts with these three sections, in this order:

  1. Overview (overview.md): a snapshot, not a to-do list. What you are working on now; each standing routine (schedules, digests, checks) and whether it is running or broken; one line on what changed since the last update.
  2. Needs Attention (needs-attention.md): decisions and blockers waiting on the user. Every item has a button. If nothing waits on the user, say so in one line, such as "Nothing needs you right now."
  3. Suggestions (suggestions.md): work you noticed you can do, including unfinished work to resume and routines you could take over. Each item says what prompted it, with a date, and has a button.

Add up to three more sections only when they hold something the first three cannot, such as "Recently Learned". Merge or remove sections that overlap. At most six sections and three items per section. Keep the first three even when one has nothing to show, and say so in one line; delete an extra section, and its index line, when it is empty.

Buttons

A button sends its instruction to you, so offer only what you can do. Each button is one of three kinds:

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.
