Semantic search over the knowledgebase vector index. Finds decisions, patterns, and sessions relevant to a natural language query — no exact keyword matching needed.

/search-kb "<query>" # search all namespaces

Before searching, verify the embedding model is available:
if test -S /tmp/embed-server.sock; then
echo "✔ embed-server daemon ready"
elif curl -s http://localhost:11434/api/tags 2>/dev/null | python3 -c "
import sys, json
d = json.load(sys.stdin)
models = [m['name'] for m in d.get('models', [])]
sys.exit(0 if any('all-minilm' in m for m in models) else 1)" 2>/dev/null; then
echo "✔ Ollama fallback ready"
else
echo "✖ No embedding model available — search cannot proceed."
echo "Check: docker compose logs tooling | grep -E 'embed|ollama|model'"
exit 1
fi
If neither the embed daemon socket nor the Ollama fallback model is available, abort the search and instruct the user to verify the container startup.

| Namespace | Content | Use When |
|---|---|---|
decisions | Architecture decisions with rationale and alternatives | Making design choices |
patterns | Implementation patterns, troubleshooting procedures | Solving a specific problem |
sessions | Session summaries (what was done, what changed) | Finding recent related work |
Omit -n to search all namespaces.
Before starting implementation:
/search-kb "<feature name>" -n decisions
Find prior decisions that constrain or inform the approach.
When debugging:
/search-kb "<error message or symptom>"
Find gotchas, troubleshooting patterns, and past encounters with the same issue.
Before proposing architecture:
/search-kb "<design question>" -n decisions -l 10
See what was already decided and why alternatives were rejected.
Searches MemPalace before answering questions about past work, people, projects, or prior decisions. Returns verbatim stored content instead of guessing from model memory.
Guides Payload CMS config (payload.config.ts), collections, fields, hooks, access control, APIs. Debugs validation errors, security, relationships, queries, transactions, hook behavior.
Implements vector databases with Pinecone, Weaviate, Qdrant, Milvus, pgvector for semantic search, RAG, recommendations, and similarity systems. Optimizes embeddings, indexing, and hybrid search.
