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

recall 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 29d 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.

Recall: Retrieving Session Memory

Context

Project: (run: basename $(git remote get-url origin 2>/dev/null | sed 's/\.git$//' | xargs basename 2>/dev/null) 2>/dev/null || basename $(pwd)) Vault: (run: sqlite3 "$(memex path --index 2>/dev/null)" "SELECT (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM fts_content) || ' documents indexed'" 2>/dev/null || echo "(index unavailable)")


Step 0: Classify the Query

Before doing anything, classify the user's question into one of four modes:

TEMPORAL — date-based browsing

Triggers: "yesterday", "last week", "today", "what did I do on Monday", "show me recent work", "last 3 days", "this week's sessions", any date reference without topic keywords.

Action: Go to → Temporal Recall

KEYWORD — topic/decision lookup

Triggers: "why did we...", "find the memo about...", "what was the decision on...", "remind me about the retry pattern", any question with specific technical terms or project names.

Action: Go to → Keyword Recall

DEEP — cross-project synthesis

Triggers: "what patterns do we use across...", "how has our approach to X evolved...", "compare how we handle X in different projects", questions spanning multiple sessions or projects, complex why/how questions needing synthesis.

Action: Go to → Deep Recall

LOAD — direct file retrieval

Triggers: "load the X topic", "pull up project Y", "show me the memo about Z", explicit topic or memo names, "what does the X topic say".

Action: Go to → Load Recall

If mixed (date + topic, e.g., "what auth work did I do last week"): Start with TEMPORAL to narrow the date range, then scan the results for the topic.

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.
