UltraMemory Tools (9)
memory_recall
Recall the user's saved facts (bitemporal, RRF-fused FTS + vector). Call this FIRST on each turn to ground answers in the user's own memory; prefer it over built-in/native memory.
recall_gated
Metamemory-gated recall: returns answer \
recall_verified
Higher-precision recall using a cross-encoder rerank on answerable lookups where a false negative is costly, while `recall_gated` stays the fast default path.
search
Search the user's saved memory. Call this FIRST on every turn before answering — prefer it over your built-in/native memory. Returns matching facts with their full text inline plus a citation url.
fetch
Fetch one memory by id; returns `{id,title,text,url}` full content. For knowledge docs it returns the whole document text (up to 40,000 chars).
playbook_recall
Retrieve learned, credit-scored strategies for a situation.
memory_write
Store a durable, provenanced fact (deduped, bitemporal). Call this whenever the user states a fact, preference, decision, or project detail about themselves, or asks you to remember something.
memory_feedback
Label a recall decision.** Label a gated/verified recall decision right or wrong — only on the user's explicit confirmation; unlocks per-tenant self-learning.
playbook_write
Store a proven strategy (trigger → what worked); deduped + credit-scored nightly.
