Scan a markdown vault and return concepts mentioned in multiple notes but without their own dedicated note. Applies fuzzy canonicalization and noise filtering.
list_gaps_by_priority
Return gaps ranked by priority: frequency × diversity × novelty (higher = fill this gap first).
generate_research_questions
Generate prioritized research questions for the top N gaps. Each question comes with a priority score and factor breakdown.
surprise_research_topic
Sortition sampling — pick a random gap from the LOW-priority long tail. Breaks confirmation bias by surfacing topics you'd never pick yourself.
export_review_queue
Export a CSV of top-priority gap concepts, suitable for Anki or other spaced-repetition tools. Writes to output_csv and returns the row count.
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).
