mnemo

mnemo is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from omermaksutii/mnemo. It costs 50 tokens per session (572 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A persistent memory system for keeping useful facts, decisions, conventions, and preferences available during and between coding tasks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to recall earlier project information, save explicit instructions or decisions, list recent memories, or remove an outdated memory.
Why use it?
It reduces the need to repeat context or rediscover why a project was built a certain way.

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

mnemo 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 53 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Mnemo — persistent memory

You have access to a persistent memory layer via these MCP tools:

  • mnemo_recall(query, k?, scope?) — semantic search across stored memories
  • mnemo_remember(content, scope?, tags?) — capture a new memory
  • mnemo_forget(id) — delete a memory
  • mnemo_list(scope?, limit?) — browse recent memories
  • mnemo_stats() — show memory engine status

When to use each

mnemo_recall — call this BEFORE answering anything where prior context might help:

  • "what's our convention for X?"
  • "how did we decide to handle Y?"
  • "why is Z structured this way?"
  • whenever you're starting a task in an unfamiliar area of the codebase

Use natural-language queries. Don't try to construct keyword searches — the index is semantic.

mnemo_remember — call this when:

  • The user explicitly asks ("remember this", "save this for later")
  • You make or affirm a non-obvious decision (capture it as scope: "project")
  • The user states a personal preference that applies across projects (capture as scope: "global")
  • You finish a task and notice something worth not having to rediscover

Default scope is "project" (auto-tied to the current repo).

mnemo_forget — only when the user explicitly asks to forget, OR when you discover a memory contradicts current reality and should be replaced.

Examples

User: "we always use Vitest, never Jest" → mnemo_remember({ content: "we always use Vitest, never Jest", scope: "global" })

User: "what test framework do we use?" → mnemo_recall({ query: "test framework preference", k: 3 }) then synthesize the answer.

User: "forget that pnpm thing" → mnemo_list({ limit: 50 }) to find it, then mnemo_forget({ id: "..." }).

Discipline

  • Don't capture things that are already in CLAUDE.md or other always-loaded files (Mnemo is for the long tail that those files can't carry)
  • Don't capture transient task state — capture lasting facts
  • Prefer global scope for cross-project preferences; default to project scope otherwise
  • When recall returns nothing useful, say so plainly — don't guess or hallucinate from low-similarity hits

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.

mnemo is a skill published in the GitHub repository omermaksutii/mnemo (44 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 50 tokens to every session and 572 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
