Each tool serves a distinct, non-overlapping function: compact summarizes the current session, recall searches past memory, timeline lists sessions, and remember stores a fact. No two tools could be confused for one another.

All tool names are single lowercase words using a command-like style (compact, recall, timeline, remember). The naming pattern is uniform and intuitive, with no mixed conventions or confusing prefixed/suffixed variations.

Four tools is the right size for a memory-management server. The scope is narrow and each tool covers a necessary function without bloat or redundancy, making the set easy to learn and use.

The core memory lifecycle is covered: remember (write), compact (state saving), recall (read/search), and timeline (audit). A possible gap is a delete/forget operation, but for a persistent-memory system this may be intentionally omitted, so the surface is nearly complete.
