recall

recall is a skill for Claude Code from mishahanin/heading-os. It costs 110 tokens per session (2,693 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A workspace-wide search tool that finds stored information by meaning across notes, business records, plans, and other indexed content. It returns cited sources or says when the information is not in memory.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to recall what the workspace knows about a topic, find where a decision was recorded, or check whether something has been discussed before.
Why use it?
It helps answer questions about past decisions and known information without relying on guesses or manually searching every file.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: allowed-tools in frontmatter.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is python3 scripts/memory-index.py build.

Good fit Use it to recall what the workspace knows about a topic, find where a decision was recorded, or check whether something has been discussed before.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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 8d 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 — 220 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Recall (workspace-wide semantic memory)

Surface what the workspace already knows, by meaning. The engine (scripts/memory-index.py) does hybrid dense+lexical retrieval entirely on the local machine (ollama bge-m3, zero API cost) across every meaningful layer. This skill turns its ranked hits into a cited answer — or relays its honest "gap" when the answer is not in memory. It never guesses past the sources, and it never sends anything.

CEO-only. Not synced to executives.

Phase 0 — Refresh, then query

  1. Refresh the index first (mirrors /odin recall): run

    python3 scripts/memory-index.py build
    

    This is incremental — it embeds only changed files and updates the gitignored .memory-index/ cache. It is NOT a workspace write. If ollama is down, the build prints an embedding error. Do not fail. Note "index not refreshed (ollama down), recalling from the existing index" in one line, then query whatever is already indexed.

  2. Query with JSON output:

    python3 scripts/memory-index.py query "<the user's question, RU or EN>" --json
    
    • Default collection is content (what we know / decided). To search the machinery (skills, rules), pass --collection code. To search everything, --collection all. To pin one layer, --layer NAME (e.g. odin, thread, crm, outputs, context, skill).
    • Pass the user's phrasing as the query text; the engine is cross-lingual, so a Russian question recalls English notes and vice-versa.

Phase 1 — Answer from sources, or admit the gap

Parse the JSON. It is one object:

  • Gap ({"hits": [], "gap": true, "best": <float>, "threshold": <float>}): there is no match above the salience threshold. Say so plainly — e.g. "Not in memory: nothing above the recall threshold for that (closest match scored {best} vs {threshold})." Do NOT pad and do NOT speculate. Do NOT answer from your own prior knowledge. Optionally name the nearest layer or suggest a rephrase or --collection all. Stop here.

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.
