user-general-facts is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from memodb-io/Acontext. It costs 15 tokens per session (397 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A skill for recording general facts about a user, such as preferences, background, goals, and technical context, in topic-specific files.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when the user shares a lasting preference, personal detail, work context, or goal that should be remembered. It explains how to create or update appropriately named fact files.
Why use it?
It keeps useful personal context organized so it can be recalled in later conversations. Separating topics prevents unrelated facts from being mixed together.

About the project

Acontext is an open-source memory layer for AI agents that records useful knowledge from agent runs as editable skill files. Agent builders use it to preserve, inspect, share, and reuse what agents learn across frameworks, and the catalogue includes hooks, skills, instructions, rules, an MCP, and a plugin for working with it.

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

user-general-facts 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 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.

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.

What it actually says

User General Facts

Learn and recall general facts about the user — preferences, background, goals, and other persistent information that helps personalize interactions.

File Structure

Organize facts into topic-specific files named [TOPIC].md. Create a new file when a new category of facts is discovered; update the existing file when new facts are found for that topic.

File Format: [TOPIC].md

# [Topic Name]

- [third-person fact about the user, e.g. "The user prefers TypeScript"]
- [third-person fact about the user, e.g. "The user's name is Gus"]

Example Topics

  • coding-preferences.md — preferred languages, frameworks, code style conventions
  • tech-stack.md — tools, services, and infrastructure the user works with
  • communication-style.md — how the user prefers to interact (concise vs. detailed, etc.)
  • work-context.md — role, team, projects, company details
  • goals.md — current objectives, priorities, long-term goals

Guidelines

  • One topic per file — do not mix unrelated facts in the same file
  • Use lowercase kebab-case for file names (e.g., coding-preferences.md)
  • Choose clear, broad topic names
  • Update existing facts when corrections are provided — do not keep stale information
  • Keep facts concise, objective, and actionable
  • Only record facts explicitly stated or clearly demonstrated by the user — do not speculate
  • Always use third-person pronouns when referring to the user. Write "The user prefers X" or "The user's name is Y", never "I prefer X" or "My name is Y". These files are read by agents who would mistake first-person "I" as referring to themselves.
Changes

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.
