honcho-cli

honcho-cli is a skill for Claude Code from plastic-labs/honcho. It costs 61 tokens per session (1,297 once invoked), scanned A, original, AGPL-3.0.

A command-line inspection and debugging skill for Honcho workspaces. Honcho provides memory and context services for stateful software agents.

In plain words
What is it for?
Inspecting peer representations, memory state, session context, and the quality of conversations between agents in a Honcho deployment.
Why use it?
It helps determine whether an agent’s memory recording and recall process is working and whether its stored context is correct.

About the project

Honcho is a memory service for software agents that stores messages and events, builds representations of people and other entities over time, and provides session context, search results, and natural-language insights. It is for developers building agents that need persistent, changing state across conversations and projects, using a managed service, local stack, or self-hosted FastAPI server. The catalogue entries connect coding agents and MCP clients to Honcho’s memory system.

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

honcho-cli 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.

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.
