alice-resumption

alice-resumption is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from samrusani/AliceMemory. It costs 23 tokens per session (460 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A continuity helper for picking up interrupted coding work from a structured record of decisions, changes, open tasks and blockers.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create a short restart brief showing the last decision, next action, waiting items and recent changes.
Why use it?
It avoids rebuilding the previous conversation and decisions by hand when work is paused or handed back to an agent.

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

alice-resumption 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 it actually says

Alice Resumption

Legacy pack. The supported Hermes pack is agent-skills/hermes/alice-memory. This skill needs the full tool surface: set ALICE_MCP_FULL_TOOLS=1 in the Alice MCP server env. On the default three tools, only the alice_resume step works.

Goal

Resume work from deterministic continuity state instead of reconstructing history manually.

Trigger Cues

Use this skill when the user asks:

  • continue where we left off
  • give me a restart brief
  • summarize decisions, next action, blockers

Required MCP Tools

  • mcp_<alice_server>_alice_resume
  • Optional: mcp_<alice_server>_alice_context_pack

<alice_server> is the key under mcp_servers. It is alice when alice-memory install --host hermes wrote it and alice_core in the example configs.

Workflow

  1. Call alice_resume with scoped filters and bounded limits.
  2. If broader context is needed, call alice_context_pack.
  3. Prioritize these sections in your answer:
    • last decision
    • next action
    • open loops
    • recent changes
  4. Keep the final brief actionable and short.

Tool Call Templates

mcp_<alice_server>_alice_resume({"thread_id":"<uuid>","max_recent_changes":5,"max_open_loops":5})
mcp_<alice_server>_alice_context_pack({"query":"<topic>","max_items":10})

Output Contract

Always include:

  • last_decision
  • next_action
  • blockers_or_waiting_for
  • recent_changes
  • explicit note when thread_id or scope is missing
Changes

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.
