recall_memory

Searches the user’s unified developer memory: the facts, preferences, episodes, and procedures captured from their coding agents (Claude Code, Copilot, and others) and written by agents via save_memory. Returns the most relevant active memories for a query, ranked by similarity. Stale or superseded memories are never returned. Use this to remember what the user told other agents: their preferences, project facts, decisions, and how-to procedures.

Input
