Recipes
Memory Layer is built for coding agents, but the engine underneath — capture, curation, cited retrieval, honest refusals, self-maintaining activation — works for any project that accumulates durable knowledge. These recipes are short, copy-paste paths into six unconventional uses. Each needs only a running service (quickstart) and works keyless.
Make a Markdown vault queryable with cited answers, and keep it synced.
Ingest reading notes, query across them, and share the corpus as a bundle.
Give NPCs durable, decaying memory of what the player did — over the HTTP API.
A tiny quest mod + bridge daemon chronicle your playthrough; ask "where did I leave off?".
Record automation decisions as memories and ask "why did the heating turn on?".
Point any MCP client (Claude Desktop, Codex) at a chats project — pure configuration.
Two building blocks appear in every recipe:
memory ingest— turn a directory of documents into memories, no git required.- The HTTP API — the frozen v1 surface (
/v1/capture/task,/v1/query, …) for anything that isn't a directory of files.
