install-openviking-memory

install-openviking-memory is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from volcengine/OpenViking. It costs 191 tokens per session (10,410 once invoked), scanned A, original, AGPL-3.0.

An installation and setup workflow for OpenViking long-term memory in OpenClaw. OpenClaw is the host system named by the add-on, while long-term memory means saving useful facts from earlier conversations for later sessions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to check prerequisites, install the memory plugin, and configure it through natural-language conversation.
Why use it?
It helps set up automatic capture of important conversation facts and automatic recall of relevant context before a reply. This reduces the need to repeat information across separate chats.

    Skill enables autonomous high-impact decisions without human-in-the-loop verification. Critical operations (destructive commands, financial transactions, data deletion) should require explicit user confirmation.
    Fix: Add human-in-the-loop confirmation for destructive, irreversible, or high-impact operations. Never auto-execute commands that modify files, send data, or alter system state.

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

install-openviking-memory scanned grade A 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 yesterday.

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.

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.
