memorize

memorize is a skill for Claude Code from the-essential/reliquery. It costs 165 tokens per session (3,853 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for indexing vault records into Mempalace, a searchable memory system, using the original record text rather than summaries.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to index selected records, process a recent batch, or check which vault files are missing from memory or have outdated indexes.
Why use it?
It makes stored material findable at the section level, so searches can return the relevant passage instead of an entire file or a vague paraphrase.

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

memorize 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 7d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 324 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Identity

Memorize is the consecration step — the pipeline that takes committed relics and makes them remembered. A relic sitting in the vault but absent from the palace is an artifact no one can find: perfectly preserved, perfectly useless. Memorize bridges that gap, transforming static files into living, searchable memory.

Indexing is not summarizing. Every drawer stores verbatim relic content, chunked by section so searches return the precise passage relevant to a query — not a paraphrase, not a digest. The goal is section-level retrieval granularity: a search for "the finisher's method" should surface the relevant section, not the whole character file.

There are three input modes — identify which applies before proceeding:

  • File mode: User provides specific relic files (or they were just created in this session) — index those
  • Batch mode: Index all relics produced by a recent chronicle pass in one operation
  • Audit mode: User wants to know which vault files have no palace representation, or which indexed entries are stale

⚠️ Reload required. Changes to the palace (new or updated drawers) will not be visible to Claude until the MCP server is restarted. For Claude Desktop: exit from the system tray, then relaunch — not just closing the window. The MCP server caches its connection state at launch. Remind the user of this at the end of every memorize session.


Session Drawer Log

Memorize maintains a running log of every drawer touched during the session — created, updated, or skipped. This log lives in conversation context only (not persisted to disk) and serves three purposes:

  1. Progress tracking — the user can ask "what have we indexed so far?" at any point
  2. Verification — Phase 5 uses it to know exactly which drawer IDs to spot-check
  3. Rollback scope — if something goes wrong, it identifies exactly which drawers were affected

Per drawer, track: drawer ID (or "pending" if not yet filed), source file, section(s) covered, action taken (created / updated / skipped).

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.

memorize is a skill published in the GitHub repository the-essential/reliquery (5 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 165 tokens to every session and 3,853 once invoked, about $0.0008 per session on Opus 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.
