ai-persistence

ai-persistence is a skill for Claude Code from TanStack/ai. It costs 88 tokens per session (2,840 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of tools for saving and restoring AI chat conversations with TanStack AI. It separates saved conversation history from delivery durability, which lets a running response resume after a connection problem.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to add server-side or browser-side chat persistence, store conversations across sessions, and support resumable AI responses.
Why use it?
It prevents chat history from existing only in temporary memory or being confused with a reconnectable response stream. You can connect the storage contract to databases such as Postgres, SQLite, D1, or Mongo.

About the project

TanStack AI is a TypeScript SDK for building applications that stream AI responses, call tools, run agents, produce structured output, and handle multimodal or realtime interactions. Developers use it across frameworks and AI providers through shared typed interfaces and provider adapters. The catalogue entries are add-ons for working with this SDK.

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

ai-persistence 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.

TanStack AI Persistence

Builds on the ai-core skill in @tanstack/ai, and usually ai-core/chat-experience.

TanStack AI splits delivery durability from state persistence. They share no code and solve different problems.

Layer Answers Package / API
Delivery durability Reconnect to a stream still running memoryStream / @tanstack/ai-durable-stream on the response; see resumable streams docs
State persistence What is the conversation, later? Client persistence on useChat + server withPersistence from @tanstack/ai-persistence

A replayable stream is not a saved conversation. A saved conversation is not a live stream. Production apps often use both.

Persistence is a contract, not a database

@tanstack/ai-persistence ships the store interfaces, the middleware that drives them, an in-memory reference backend, and a conformance testkit. It does not ship a backend for your database, and you do not need one: implement the stores against whatever you already run — Postgres, SQLite, D1, Mongo — and hand the result to withPersistence. The core never inspects your tables.

Ships in the package What it is
MessageStore / RunStore / InterruptStore / MetadataStore The four chat state contracts
GenerationRunStore / ArtifactStore / BlobStore The generation contracts (job lifecycle + bytes)
withPersistence / withGenerationPersistence Chat + generation middleware
memoryPersistence() In-process reference backend, all seven stores (dev, tests)
reconstructChat / reconstructGeneration Server hydrate route helpers (chat / generation)
retrieveArtifact / retrieveBlob / resolveArtifactBlobKey Serve persisted generation-media bytes back
LockStore / withLocks / InMemoryLockStore (from @tanstack/ai/locks) Coordination, not this package — see ai-core/locks
@tanstack/ai-persistence/testkit runPersistenceConformance gate (chat state stores)

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.
