FAQPage Schema
How do I search my Vestige memory system for past design decisions?

To search Vestige memory, use natural language queries to retrieve stored facts, patterns, decisions, and events. This semantic search prevents knowledge loss by recalling previously stored information using the `mcp__vestige__search` tool.

Can I retrieve stored events from Vestige using natural language?

Yes, you can retrieve stored events from Vestige using natural language queries. The recall Skill searches the cognitive memory database to retrieve facts, patterns, decisions, and events by applying semantic search to your query.

What is the best way to access stored patterns in a cognitive memory system?

The best way to access stored patterns in a cognitive memory system is using semantic search with natural language queries. The Vestige search tool queries the memory database with specified limits and detail levels to retrieve relevant knowledge.

Do I need the Vestige search tool to retrieve memories?

Yes, retrieving Vestige memories requires the `mcp__vestige__search` tool to query the cognitive memory database. This dependency allows you to apply natural language queries to access stored facts, patterns, decisions, and events.

How do I limit the detail level of information retrieved from Vestige memory?

To limit the detail level of retrieved Vestige memory information, specify the limits and detail levels parameters when querying the memory database. The `mcp__vestige__search` tool accepts these configurations to control search results.
