At a glance

Save the real Claude Code or Grok Build session messages only when the user explicitly requests it.

  • Explicitly requests it
  • SKILL.md covers When to Save, Tool Usage, Thread vs Memory and Response, plus 1 more section
  • Calls pip

What it does

Save Thread is an agent skill from nowledge-co/community. Save the real Claude Code or Grok Build session messages only when the user explicitly requests it. Use nmem t save to import the recorded session, not a summary-only checkpoint.

Its SKILL.md is about 560 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Agent Workflows. The repository describes itself as: Community Repo for Nowledge Labs Products.

When your agent uses it

  • Explicitly requests it

Example prompts

  • “/save-thread”

Requirements

  • Python 3

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 0567734. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • pip

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use pip, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Save Thread loads about 561 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 48 tokens; SKILL.md has 173 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~48
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~561

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 173 words (~561 tokens).

“Only when user explicitly says: "Save this session" | "Checkpoint this" | "Record conversation"”
