Tools & Capabilities Breakdown
Anneal Memory Tools (9)
record
When something important happens — a decision, observation, tension, question, outcome, or context change
recall
Before making decisions that might have prior context. Query by time, type, keyword, or ID
prepare_wrap
At session end — returns episodes + current continuity + association context + compression instructions
save_continuity
After compressing — server validates structure, citations, records associations, applies decay, and saves
delete_episode
Remove content that should not exist (PII, sensitive data). Cascades to associations. Logged in audit trail (best-effort: the deletion is never failed by an audit-write failure; check `status().audit_write_failures` when the log is your evidence — a loss *recorded* there survives the process, so a…
Ready-to-Paste Client Configurations
Paste either (or both) of these JSON server blocks into your client config file (e.g. claude_desktop_config.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json).
Anneal Memory is categorized under Knowledge & Memory and uses a local stdio subprocess. In contrast, Moxie Docs MCP belongs to Knowledge & Memory using local stdio subprocess. Select Anneal Memory when you need capabilities focused on knowledge & memory and Moxie Docs MCP when you require tools for knowledge & memory.
Abandon a wrap that is open and will not be finished — the escape hatch when `prepare_wrap` refuses with "a wrap is already in progress". Episodes are not deleted; the next `prepare_wrap` picks them up. Optional `wrap_token`: cancel only if that wrap is still the one in progress, refused with no ch…
crystal_recall
Recall crystallized (graduated, long-term) patterns relevant to a query — the on-demand semantic tier. Keyword scoring is corpus-aware (rare, distinctive terms outweigh common process-words, so recall stays precise on a large store), and recall also follows evidence edges — surfacing a pattern grou…
crystal_index
The always-on name + one-clause menu of the crystallized store — what graduated wisdom exists, so the agent isn't blind to its own corpus (the bodies fill on cue via `crystal_recall`)
Moxie Docs MCP Tools (12)
moxie.get_ai_context
Compact pre-edit briefing: repo status, verified commands, top conventions, open gaps, team notes. Read this first.
moxie.get_doc_impact
Given the paths you're about to change (and any you're deleting), returns the conventions, gaps, and existing docs whose evidence overlaps them - and flags net-new/undocumented surfaces.
moxie.get_api_context
Given paths you're about to touch, returns structured context for any API endpoints they map to: method, path, schema, and known consumers/features.
