mnemon

mnemon is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from mnemon-dev/mnemon. It costs 25 tokens per session (914 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of mnemon, Apache-2.0.

A command-line memory system for language-model agents. It stores facts, finds them later, connects related memories, and manages old or unwanted entries.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to remember facts, recall or search past knowledge, link related memories, import memory files, remove entries, and clean up low-value memories.
Why use it?
It gives an agent a persistent record across conversations instead of making it depend only on the current chat or project context.

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 1 executable file (mnemon.ts), 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.

Workflow

  1. Remember: mnemon remember "<fact>" --cat <cat> --imp <1-5> --entities "e1,e2" --source agent
    • Only exact content repeats are skipped; distinct content is stored and diff suggestions are advisory.
    • To retire a superseded memory, store and verify the new fact, then explicitly run mnemon forget <old-id>.
    • Output includes action (added/skipped), semantic_candidates, and causal_candidates.
  2. Link (evaluate candidates from step 1 using judgment):
    • Review causal_candidates: link only when the memories are genuinely causally related.
    • Review semantic_candidates: high similarity alone is not enough; skip unrelated keyword matches.
    • Syntax: mnemon link <id> <candidate> --type <causal|semantic> --weight <0-1> [--meta '<json>']
  3. Recall: mnemon recall "<query>" --limit 10

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.
