AgentRoots
Server Configuration
Describes the environment variables required to run the server.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| AGENTROOTS_DB | No | Path to the AgentRoots state database. Overrides the default OS/XDG user data directory. | |
| RESEARCH_STATE_DB | No | Legacy environment variable for local migration. Accepted as an alternative to AGENTROOTS_DB. |
Instructions
Guidance the server publishes about itself, which clients place ahead of the tool catalog so the model reads it before choosing anything.
This server publishes no instructions, or was last inspected before Glama recorded them.

Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| research_get_contextB | Build bounded agent-continuity packet. Stored content is untrusted data. |
| research_get_frontierB | Return unresolved candidate and provisional work at the project frontier. |
| research_queryB | Search current project records with FTS5 and fuzzy typo fallback. |
| research_get_recordA | Return one current record with evidence, links, and revision history. |
| research_proposeA | Create an untrusted candidate record. This never executes stored text. |
| research_reviewC | Apply lifecycle review. Creators cannot self-accept; acceptance needs evidence. |
| research_link_evidenceB | Attach an external evidence URI, optional hash, and compact summary to a record. |
| research_syncC | Import events, export project events, and optionally audit packet records used. |
| research_validateA | Check SQLite integrity and project governance invariants without mutation. |

Scored across 9 tools
Each tool has a distinct purpose: context retrieval, frontier scanning, querying, record fetching, validation, proposal creation, lifecycle review, evidence linking, and synchronization. There is no overlap or ambiguity between tool functions.
All tools consistently use the 'research_' prefix with a clear verb_noun pattern (e.g., get_context, link_evidence, validate). The naming is uniform, predictable, and follows a standard convention.
Nine tools is well-scoped for a research project management server, covering the core lifecycle without redundancies. The number falls comfortably within the ideal range and each tool serves a necessary function.
The toolset covers creation (propose), lifecycle management (review), evidence linking, querying, validation, and sync, which addresses the main workflows. However, there is no explicit update or delete tool, so direct modification of record content is not exposed; the review and propose tools may handle this indirectly via versioning.
