Alpha MCPAPI reference · v1

The MCP your agents call.

Tritemporal memory that cannot lie about the past, a governed causal graph, knock-on simulation, and a decision ledger — the engine behind every Cascadian answer, at machine speed.

get_memory()

Key

The L2 drill-down: the full evidence card for one memory item — content, type, status, linked entities, evidence, and its available_at stamp.

get_memory(memory_id)EVIDENCE CARD

Callable over MCP as get_memory(memory_id). REST mirror GET /v1/memories Planned — alpha is MCP-only

Why your agent calls it

The drill-down. Search and packs return summaries plus ids; when an item is load-bearing for a recommendation, the agent pulls the full evidence card — content, status, linked entities, evidence, timestamps — before leaning on it.

Call it from an agent

Over MCP, your agent invokes it on its own when the moment calls for it — just describe the situation. A Python SDK for headless runtimes is planned; this is what the call will look like.
