Tools (16)

Read from the source code; the running server may differ. Descriptions are the server’s own words; hidden characters are shown as [U+…].

  • brain_append

    Append text to a note (creates it if missing).

  • brain_backlinks

    Notes that link to the given note.

  • brain_capture

    Hand over a ROUGH note / brain-dump and let the vault file it. An agent loop reads SCHEMA.md, searches for what already exists, then deliberately creates a new note, appends to a matching one, or archives what this supersedes — and returns a manifest of every path it touched. It reads a note before overwriting it, and never deletes. Use when you have unstructured input and don't want to choose the path yourself; use brain_write when you do.

  • brain_create_folder

    Create a new folder in the vault (with a .gitkeep).

  • brain_delete

    Delete a note (recoverable via git history). Prefer brain_move into an archive folder — deleting destroys the reasoning trail, archiving only removes it from search. Delete when the note is wrong or duplicated, archive when it is merely no longer true.

  • brain_edit

    Overwrite a note. Pass `content` (full raw markdown incl. frontmatter) — read first with brain_read, then write the whole file back. Also accepts `body` (+ optional `frontmatter`) like brain_write.

  • brain_graph

    The knowledge graph (nodes + edges from wikilinks and related:). Optional folder filter.

  • brain_list

    List every note with metadata (path, title, folder, type, tags, status, authority). Use to discover what exists. `authority` tells you which notes are source-of-truth and which are history.

  • brain_move

    Move or rename a note. This is how you retire something: when a note stops being true, move it to an archive folder (see brain_schema → conventions.ranking.archiveFolders) rather than deleting it. Archived notes are demoted in search and excluded by default, so they stop misleading agents while the reasoning trail survives. Leave a pointer in the replacement note saying what superseded what.

  • brain_read

    Read a note: full markdown (frontmatter + body), its `authority`, and its backlinks. Path is vault-relative, e.g. 'clients/mks/mks.md'. Pass `section` to read just one heading's content instead of the whole file — cheaper on long documents. If the heading isn't found you get the list of available headings back. Always check the returned `authority` before acting on the content: `archived` and `superseded` notes are history, not instructions.

  • brain_recent

    Notes changed most recently, newest first. Use to catch up on what humans or other agents have done since you last looked.

  • brain_schema

    READ THIS FIRST, before searching or writing. Returns the vault's SCHEMA.md (folder taxonomy, frontmatter conventions, wikilink model, write protocol) AND a live description of this specific vault: its folders, the `status:` values actually in use, how search ranks notes by authority, and any integrity warnings. Vaults differ — never assume conventions, read them here.

  • brain_search

    Keyword search across the vault. Returns `{ hits, excluded }`. Each hit has `path`, `title`, `folder`, `status`, `snippet`, and `authority`. IMPORTANT — ranking is by keyword relevance, NOT by truth. A superseded document repeats the query words just as often as the live one, so it can outrank it. Every hit carries an `authority`: `authoritative` (source of truth — prefer it), `current`, `provisional` (draft/proposed — never quote as settled), `superseded`, `archived`. Rank order is a suggestion; `authority` is the signal. `excluded` is the explainable-rejection list: notes that matched the …

  • brain_supersede

    Retire a fact and replace it, atomically. When a fact changes (a price, a term, a decision), DON'T just add a new note — the old value keeps matching searches and gets quoted. `brain_supersede(from, to)` marks the old note superseded in place (body preserved) and links it to the new one, in a single commit, so add-and-retire can't drift apart. After this, search withholds the old note with the reason "superseded by <to>". `from` = the note being retired; `to` = the note that replaces it. If `to` doesn't exist yet, pass `body` (its markdown) and it's created; otherwise write `to` first, then s…

  • brain_tree

    Return the folder/file tree of the vault.

  • brain_write

    Create or overwrite a note. PREFER `body` (markdown, no frontmatter) + `frontmatter` (an object): the YAML is serialised for you and always parses. Hand-writing frontmatter into `content` risks invalid YAML — a note whose frontmatter fails to parse loses its status, tags and title on every read, so a note claiming `status: locked` would rank as an ordinary one. Such a write is REJECTED. Follow SCHEMA.md: kebab-case path, dated names for daily/decisions, frontmatter with title/type/tags/status. Path vault-relative (e.g. decisions/foo-2026-07-09.md). WHEN A FACT CHANGED, DON'T CREATE A DATED SI…
