context-recall

context-recall is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ThisisYoYoDev/claude-rag. It costs 56 tokens per session (310 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A search command for Claude RAG, a database of past conversations, tool results, AI outputs, and sub-agent activity. It finds historical information that matches a query.

In plain words
What is it for?
Looking up past technical discussions, file paths, function names, tool results, project history, or work performed by sub-agents.
Why use it?
It saves time when you need details from earlier work but do not remember which session or tool contained them.

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

context-recall 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 4d 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

Context Recall (Auto-invoked by Claude)

Search the RAG database for context relevant to the current conversation.

Instructions

  1. Determine the best search query from the current conversation context. Focus on:

    • Specific technical terms, function names, file paths
    • The core topic or problem being discussed
    • Any explicit references to past work
  2. Use mcp__plugin_claude-rag_rag__search with:

    • query: derived from the conversation context
    • limit: 5
    • threshold: 0.55
  3. Return findings concisely:

    • Lead with the most relevant finding
    • Include specific details: file paths, function names, dates
    • If code was found, include key snippets
    • Keep it brief — this is supplementary context, not the main answer
    • Prefix findings with "From past conversations:" to make the source clear
  4. If no relevant results found, don't force it. Simply state that no relevant historical context was found.

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.
