Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| lore_startB | Load the team briefing for a project: the area context docs plus recent session captures. The team /start. |
| lore_captureA | Append an append-only session - project- and user-scoped. A session is one unit of work you did (a ticket / bug / feature); you can have several per day across projects. By default it is a project-level session (no node) - omit |
| lore_adrB | Create or update a Architecture Decision Record node by path (kind: adr). |
| lore_logC | Create or update a log entry node by path (kind: log). |
| lore_todoC | Create or update a TODO node by path (kind: todo). |
| lore_planB | Create or update a plan node by path (kind: plan). |
| lore_memoryC | Create or update a memory (durable fact/learning) node by path (kind: memory). |
| lore_treeB | List the folder/doc tree for a project. Optionally scope by parent node or kind. |
| lore_contextA | Read or write an area's context document (a context-kind node). Omit |
| lore_searchB | Search nodes in a project by path substring (best-effort). |
| lore_projectsA | List every organization and project you can access (personal ones and orgs you've joined), grouped by organization. Your API token is personal - it spans all your orgs. Use this to pick or confirm which project a repo should be linked to (see /lore:init). |
| lore_create_projectA | Create a new project in one of your organizations. Pass the organization slug (from lore_projects) and a name; the slug is derived from the name (lowercase, dashes) unless you pass an explicit slug. Used by /lore:init when the user chooses to create a new project. |
| lore_deleteA | Delete a node (and its children) by path or id. Irreversible - use to clean up mistaken or stale nodes. |
| lore_moveA | Move or rename a node to a new path (and optionally a new parent), by path or id. Cascades child paths. |

TDQS
Scored across 14 tools
Each tool targets a distinct node kind or action (create/update for specific types, delete, move, search, list). Even lore_context combines read and write but is clearly described based on body presence. No two tools serve the same purpose.
All tools share the 'lore_' prefix. Most use a single noun or verb (adr, capture, context, delete, log, memory, move, plan, search, start, todo, tree) but some are two-word verbs (create_project) and a few are nouns used as verbs (adr, context, log, memory, plan, todo, tree). The pattern is consistent across the set but not perfectly verb_noun.
With 14 tools covering node lifecycle (create/update for 6 types, delete, move, search, list, projects, startup briefing), the count is well-scoped for a knowledge management server. Each tool serves a clear purpose without being excessive.
Core CRUD is covered for all node types via create/update, delete, and move. Search and tree listing provide access. Minor gaps include no dedicated 'get single node by path' tool for all types, but search and context fetch cover retrieval. Overall surface is sufficient for the domain.
