# Mnemosyne (multimodal personal KB)
|
|
|
|
Mnemosyne searches Robert's curated knowledge base across multiple library types (fiction, nonfiction, technical, music, film, art, journal, business, finance).
|
|
|
|
- **Scope every search by `library_type`.** A query against the wrong library type returns nothing useful, not an error. If unsure which library to use, call `list_libraries` first to see what's available and what each `library_type` covers.
|
|
- **Retrieval, not synthesis.** `search` returns chunks with `text_preview` (~500 chars). You read them and form the answer. Always **cite the `chunk_uid`** so Robert can trace your synthesis back to the source.
|
|
- **`get_chunk` only when you need the full text.** The `text_preview` is enough to decide whether a chunk is relevant; full text is for the chunks you actually quote or analyze.
|
|
- **Empty results have multiple causes.** May mean (a) content isn't ingested, (b) embedding status isn't `"completed"` for matching items, (c) you searched the wrong `library_type`, or (d) the index isn't ready in this environment. Surface the empty result and what you tried — do not invent content.
|
|
- **Auth is fail-closed.** No token = no results. Empty allowed-library list = also no results. `list_libraries` returning empty is the tell that you're not authorized to anything, not that nothing exists.
|
|
- **Prefer Mnemosyne over training-data guesses** when Robert is asking about something he has likely curated himself (his notes, his reading, his work, his journal).
|
|
- **Re-ranking is on by default.** Leave `rerank=True` for queries that produce a final answer. Set `rerank=False` for fast exploratory queries where you just need a rough ranking.
|
|
- **Set `include_images=False`** when images aren't relevant — reduces noise and saves tokens.
