emem-transparency-log

emem-transparency-log is a skill for Claude Code from Vortx-AI/emem. It costs 113 tokens per session (1,555 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

An offline checker for an append-only transparency log, which is a history designed to grow without changing earlier entries. It verifies signed log checkpoints, proves that entries are included, checks that a later checkpoint extends an earlier one, and shows independent witness signatures.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to verify log checkpoints, inclusion proofs for entries or memory notes, growth from one checkpoint to another, and witness co-signatures.
Why use it?
A signed receipt can show that one fact was recorded, but not that the service kept one consistent history for everyone. The log proofs help detect removed, rewritten, or inconsistent history.

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

emem-transparency-log 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 13d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/emem_crypto.py, scripts/verify_log.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Makes network callslowCapability

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 111 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

emem-transparency-log

Network use. The commands in this skill send and receive JSON (and, where a step says so, an image or a raster file) to https://emem.dev only, the service the plugin's MCP server connects to. Nothing they download is executed. The files under scripts/ read local files and make no network calls.

A receipt proves the responder signed some fact cids. It cannot prove the responder showed everyone the same history. The transparency log does: every attestation and every memory write is a leaf in one RFC 6962 Merkle tree, and the responder signs its head. Pin a head today, and tomorrow you can prove the log only grew.

Call MCP Gives
GET /v1/log/sth emem_log_sth the signed tree head: tree_size, root_b32, signed_at, signature
GET /v1/log/inclusion?leaf_index=<i> or ?entry_hash=<b32> emem_log_inclusion the audit path from one leaf to the current root
GET /v1/log/consistency?first=<n>&second=<m> emem_log_consistency the proof that the size-n tree is a prefix of the size-m tree
GET /v1/log/witnesses emem_log_witnesses independent co-signatures over (tree_size, root)
GET /v1/log/entries?start=<i>&end=<j> the raw entries, so a third party can read what else is in the tree

All reads, no key. The tree hashes with BLAKE3: leaf = blake3(0x00 || entry_hash), node = blake3(0x01 || left || right), lone nodes promoted rather than duplicated.

Verify a head, an inclusion, and growth

scripts/verify_log.py ships with this skill (${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR} is filled in by Claude Code). It makes no network calls and imports nothing outside the standard library except scripts/emem_crypto.py, shipped with this skill, a plain-Python BLAKE3 and Ed25519 verifier; --self-test checks that module against the official test vectors. Save each response to a file and pass the file:

V="${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/verify_log.py"
curl -sf https://emem.dev/v1/log/sth > old_sth.json
python3 "$V" sth old_sth.json

curl -sf "https://emem.dev/v1/log/inclusion?leaf_index=12345" > inc.json
python3 "$V" inclusion inc.json

# later: a new head, and the proof that links the two
curl -sf https://emem.dev/v1/log/sth > new_sth.json
OLD=$(jq .sth.tree_size old_sth.json); NEW=$(jq .sth.tree_size new_sth.json)
curl -sf "https://emem.dev/v1/log/consistency?first=$OLD&second=$NEW" > cons.json

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.
