mnemon

mnemon is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from mnemon-dev/mnemon. It costs 24 tokens per session (685 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A persistent memory command-line tool for Hermes Agent. It stores and recalls knowledge across sessions, with separate memory stores for different groups and an optional shared store.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to recall relevant history, save stable project knowledge, connect related memories, import or remove memories, and inspect memory-store status.
Why use it?
It gives the agent continuity when conversations are separated by time or group. Isolated stores help keep private group knowledge separate from shared read-only information.

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

mnemon 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 4 executable files (compact.sh, nudge.sh, prime.sh, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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

mnemon

Use mnemon when durable memory can materially improve continuity across Hermes sessions. Hooks may inject recalled context before an LLM call, but the agent decides what is worth storing.

Workflow

  1. Recall when prior decisions, preferences, or facts may affect the current task: mnemon recall "<query>" --limit 10
  2. Remember only stable, reusable knowledge: mnemon remember "<fact>" --cat <cat> --imp <1-5> --entities "e1,e2" --source agent
  3. Link related memories after reviewing candidates from remember: mnemon link <id> <candidate> --type <causal|semantic> --weight <0-1>

Recall Intent

Keep focused queries and memories in their original language. When the user's meaning is clear, choose --intent WHY (reasons), --intent WHEN (timing), --intent ENTITY (what/who), or --intent GENERAL (neutral retrieval). For example: mnemon recall "<query>" --intent WHY. The override works in any language; --verbose reports meta.intent and meta.intent_source (auto or override).

Automatic cues cover some forms in English, Mandarin Chinese (simplified and traditional), Hindi (Devanagari), Spanish, Modern Standard Arabic, French, Bengali (Bengali script), Portuguese, Indonesian (Latin script), Russian (Cyrillic), and German. Unrecognized forms use GENERAL; conflicting cues involving additional languages also use GENERAL. English/Chinese-only scoring is preserved. This is a lexical heuristic, not full language understanding. See the supported forms, script variants, and limits.

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.
