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

create-memory-bank 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 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.

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.

Create Memory Bank (Greenfield)

Initialize a COMB (Context-Optimized Memory Bank) for the new $0 project.

For existing projects with code: Use /adopt-memory-bank instead — it analyzes the codebase and pre-fills memory bank files with real data.

Process

Step 1 — Gather project information

Ask the user for these details before creating files:

  1. Project name: $0 (from argument)
  2. Technical domains: What are the main development areas? (e.g., backend, frontend, infrastructure, mobile)
  3. Tech stack per domain: What technologies are used? (e.g., backend: .NET 8 + PostgreSQL, frontend: React 18 + TypeScript)
  4. Current phase: What phase is the project in? (kickoff, active development, maintenance)
  5. Team size: Solo developer or team?

Step 2 — Create directory structure

memory-bank/
├── INDEX.md
├── core/
│   ├── projectbrief.md
│   ├── productContext.md
│   ├── active-context.md
│   └── sprint-tracker.md
├── tech/
│   └── (one file per domain: backend-stack.md, frontend-stack.md, etc.)
└── arch/
    ├── patterns-overview.md
    └── decisions-summary.md

Step 3 — Create project root files

Create these files in the project root:

  1. memory-bank-protocol.md — Copy from the COMB methodology template
  2. project-rules.md — Create with project-specific rules and the dynamic zone
  3. CLAUDE.md — Create the Claude Code pointer file

If the user uses Cursor, also create: 4. .cursor/rules/memory-bank.mdc — The thin Cursor wrapper

Step 4 — Fill in INDEX.md

The INDEX.md is the most critical file. Fill in:

  • Project overview (name, team, version, status)
  • Smart reading strategy decision tree (customized to the project's domains)
  • Cache-aware reading order (static files listed before dynamic files)
  • File map with line counts (initially estimated)
  • Key technologies summary
  • Architecture highlights
  • Performance metrics placeholders

Step 5 — Create core files

  • core/projectbrief.md — Ask user for project scope, goals, constraints
  • core/productContext.md — Ask user for product vision, target users, key features
  • core/active-context.md — Initialize with current phase and first tasks
  • core/sprint-tracker.md — Initialize with Sprint 1 if applicable

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.
