graph-capture

graph-capture is a skill for Claude Code from stevepridemore/graph-memory. It costs 0 tokens per session (2,722 once invoked), scanned C, original, MIT.

A command for saving important facts and relationships from a conversation into a memory graph for future use.

In plain words
What is it for?
Finding new people, projects, decisions, facts, and connections in the conversation, previewing them with a dry run, or limiting capture to a topic or point in the conversation.
Why use it?
Some conversations are not visible to the process that normally builds the graph, so useful context can otherwise be lost. It provides a final catch-up before a conversation ends.

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 C, and why

graph-capture scanned grade C with 1 finding 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.

Harvests environment variableshighData exfiltration

Enumerating or grepping the environment for keys collects credentials unrelated to what the mod says it does.

5. **Never extract secrets.** API keys, passwords, tokens, connection strings, private keys, signed URLs — none of these go into entity properties or edge evidence. Note that a credential exists ("Project X uses an API k

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 143 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

The user wants to capture the current conversation to the memory graph. Many conversations contribute knowledge that the dream process can't see (claude.ai web and Desktop chats live server-side, not in the local transcript store the dream walks). This command is the manual catch-up: review what we just talked about, find what hasn't already been written to the graph, and write it.

Arguments: $ARGUMENTS

Parse:

  • --dry-run — describe what you would write without calling write tools. Useful to review before committing.
  • --topic <focus> — focus capture on entities/relationships related to a specific topic mentioned in the conversation. Skip unrelated material. Default: capture everything substantive.
  • --since-message <uuid> — only consider messages from that point onward. Default: whole conversation.

Steps

1. Inventory candidate entities and relationships

Walk the conversation (or the slice indicated by --since-message / --topic) and list every distinct candidate that meets the "worth writing" bar:

  • People named with role, organization, or relationship context — not just casual references
  • Projects worked on, evaluated, or referenced with meaningful context
  • Technologies / Concepts the user used, evaluated, decided about, or expressed a preference toward
  • Preferences explicitly stated ("I prefer X", "always use Y") or strongly implied through repeated choice
  • Decisions made with reasoning ("we decided X because Y") — both explicit and clear inferred decisions
  • Facts about infrastructure, processes, configuration, or the user's environment
  • Events — meetings, deployments, incidents, milestones with dates or outcomes
  • Objects — specific repos, servers, databases, tools, containers
  • Reasoning traces — how a problem was solved, especially if there were dead ends or alternatives considered. Capture the trace, not just the outcome.

Skip:

  • Conversation mechanics ("let me read that file", "running the test now")
  • Trivial mentions without significance
  • API keys, passwords, tokens, connection strings, or any secret value (note existence only, never the value)

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.

graph-capture is a skill published in the GitHub repository stevepridemore/graph-memory (2 stars, last pushed 7d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 2,722 tokens. A static security scan graded it C with 1 finding (harvests environment variables). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
