capture_thoughtdelete_thoughtwrite actionPermanently delete a specific captured thought by its ID. This is destructive and irreversible — no undo, no trash. Only call this when the user explicitly asks to delete, remove, or forget a specific thought. Never call it proactively, as a side effect of another action, or on a guess at which ID they mean — if the ID isn't already known from context, use search_thoughts or list_thoughts first an
list_rulesRetrieve every convention, instruction, correction, and preference that applies right now — everything global plus anything scoped to the current project — in one call. A deterministic direct lookup (no embeddings, no ranking), so it won't miss anything a semantic search_thoughts query might rank low. Prefer this over several search_thoughts calls when you want the full standing rule set at once,
list_thoughtsList all captured conventions/instructions, optionally filtered by type.
search_thoughtsLook up previously stored coding conventions, standing instructions, and preferences, by meaning and by exact keyword match (hybrid search). Call this proactively before starting unfamiliar coding work, or when uncertain about a style/convention choice in a project — don't wait for the user to ask. Also call it when the user references a past preference or rule ('like we discussed', 'the usual way
thought_statsGet a summary of all captured durable rules: totals, types, top topics, and per-project counts.
