memory-boot

memory-boot is a skill for Claude Code from pyros-projects/limitless. It costs 65 tokens per session (2,211 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A session-start procedure that loads an agent's identity, working instructions, project context, and recent session history from its memory vault. It also covers first-time setup when the memory command-line tool is not installed.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when starting a session, entering a project, or explicitly loading or waking up the agent's saved memory.
Why use it?
It gives the agent relevant background before work begins instead of relying only on the current conversation.

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

memory-boot 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 yesterday.

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

Memory Boot

BETA — This memory system is in active testing. If you encounter bugs, confusing behavior, or have suggestions, run: codies-memory feedback "describe what happened" --agent <name> — your feedback is saved and reviewed.

Step 0: Verify CLI, Vault, and Identity

Keep the user's original project working directory throughout setup and boot. Check these three things independently, even when codies-memory already exists.

A. Current CLI

On Linux/macOS, run command -v codies-memory; on native Windows PowerShell, run Get-Command codies-memory -All. Then run:

codies-memory --version

Require CLI 1.6.0 or newer and verify that codies-memory promote --help includes --check, --session-count, and --references, and that codies-memory transcripts --help and codies-memory favorites --help work. Compare the version with the plugin's pyproject.toml (two directories above this skill), when available: update an older backend, or refresh a stale plugin if the CLI is newer.

If the CLI is absent, outdated, or resolves to a legacy/plugin-cache .venv, follow INSTALL.md to install or migrate to uv tool from the public Limitless repository. Its PATH instructions cover uv tool update-shell, reopening the shell, and removing an old codies-memory venv's PATH entry without deleting it. Repeat executable, version, and capability checks before continuing.

B. This Agent's Global Vault

Use the agent name already established in the session, including casing. Ask only if none is known. Always run the idempotent initialization:

codies-memory init --type global --agent <name>

This creates missing files and preserves existing ones. An installed CLI does not mean this agent's vault is initialized.

C. Real Identity

Read self.md, rules.md, and user.md in ~/.memory/<name>/identity/. Preserve existing real content and frontmatter; fill only empty or placeholder sections using file editing tools:

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.

memory-boot is a skill published in the GitHub repository pyros-projects/limitless (2 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 65 tokens to every session and 2,211 once invoked, about $0.0003 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 2026-08-31.
