Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5 | $0.00098 | $0.00523 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00049 | $0.00262 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00020 | $0.00105 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00010 | $0.00052 |
Grade A, and why
reindex scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 4d ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
What it actually says
/vmem:reindex — Rebuild the vector index
Wraps vault-memory index [--full] [--vault NAME] with a friendlier surface and progress reporting.
When to use
- User says "/vmem:reindex", "rebuild the index", "re-embed the vault"
- After a large note import — incremental catches up but full rebuilds typed-edge graph
- After switching embedding models (different dim → fresh re-embed required)
- After a v1 → v2 upgrade — the new graph signal (typed edges, mentions, hyperlinks) is empty until a full re-index runs
- After
/vmem:healthreports notes-on-disk > notes-in-DB
Modes
| Invocation | Effect |
|---|---|
/vmem:reindex |
Full re-index: every note re-parsed, every chunk re-embedded |
/vmem:reindex --incremental |
Only re-embed notes whose hash changed since last run |
/vmem:reindex --vault NAME |
Re-index a specific named vault instead of the current one |
How to execute
bash "$CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR/.claude/skills/reindex/reindex.sh" [--incremental] [--vault NAME]
The wrapper:
- Resolves the vault name from
~/.vault-memory/config.tomlby matching$CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIRagainst canonical paths - Invokes
vault-memory indexwith the right flags - Surfaces SQLITE_CONSTRAINT / migration crashes with the failing DB name (same crash-detection as
/vmem:installcheckpoint 6) - Reports notes-in-DB before and after
What it does NOT do
- Does not install vault-memory if missing — run
/vmem:installfirst - Does not pull missing Ollama models — run
/vmem:healthto see what's missing - Does not touch the Obsidian plugin
What ships with it
1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

reindex is a skill published in the GitHub repository owrede/vault-memory (0 stars, last pushed 26d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 98 tokens to every session and 523 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 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 2026-08-31.
