Memory Research

Research an external subject, synthesize what you find, and create a structured Basic Memory entity — with the user's approval.

Workflow

Step 1: Web Research

Basic Memory does not include a web search tool. If this host already has one, use it. If it does not, the user can add any web search tool or MCP server, for example Parallel Search MCP. Search queries go to that provider, so keep private note content out of them. Still ask before saving a note.

Search for current information across multiple sources. Aim for 3-5 searches to build a well-rounded picture:

[subject name] site
[subject name] overview
[subject name] news [current year]
[subject name] [relevant domain keywords]
