Navigation hub for the `docs/` directory. Every doc below is
authoritative for its topic; this page is just the map.
## Start here
- **[QUICKSTART.md](QUICKSTART.md)** โ first memory stored + recalled
in under 5 minutes (CLI, MCP, HTTP paths).
- **[GLOSSARY.md](GLOSSARY.md)** โ every concept (agent, tier, scope,
curator, quorum, SAL, โฆ) with one-paragraph definitions and links.
## For end users
- **[USER_GUIDE.md](USER_GUIDE.md)** โ MCP tool reference (every
`memory_*` tool), agent identity, worked examples.
- **[CLI_REFERENCE.md](CLI_REFERENCE.md)** โ every subcommand, flag,
env var. Synced to the clap defs in `src/daemon_runtime.rs` (+ `src/cli/`).
- **[API_REFERENCE.md](API_REFERENCE.md)** โ every HTTP endpoint,
payload, status code, `curl` example.
- **[INSTALL.md](INSTALL.md)** โ install recipes per platform +
every major MCP-capable IDE.
- **[TROUBLESHOOTING.md](TROUBLESHOOTING.md)** โ common errors, root
causes, fixes.
## For admins
- **[ADMIN_GUIDE.md](ADMIN_GUIDE.md)** โ deployment, feature tiers,
clustering, webhooks, governance, schema migration.
- **[SECURITY.md](SECURITY.md)** โ threat model, API key, mTLS,
SQLCipher at rest, attested identity, SSRF hardening.
- **[ARCHITECTURAL_LIMITS.md](ARCHITECTURAL_LIMITS.md)** โ performance
bounds and constraints under the current design.
- **[RUNBOOK-ollama-kv-tuning.md](RUNBOOK-ollama-kv-tuning.md)** โ
`OLLAMA_KV_CACHE_TYPE=q4_0` for 2โ4ร LLM memory reduction. Zero
ai-memory code change.
- **[RUNBOOK-chaos-campaign.md](RUNBOOK-chaos-campaign.md)** โ
200-cycle-per-fault-class federation chaos procedure (requires
real 3-host infra).
- **[RUNBOOK-curator-soak.md](RUNBOOK-curator-soak.md)** โ 168-hour
curator soak procedure against a production corpus. Defines
reversal rate `R` as the honest autonomy metric.
- **[RUNBOOK-adapter-selection.md](RUNBOOK-adapter-selection.md)** โ
design history for the `serve --store-url postgres://โฆ` adapter
selection (originally scoped to v0.7.1; **shipped in v0.7.0**).
## For developers
- **[DEVELOPER_GUIDE.md](DEVELOPER_GUIDE.md)** โ architecture, module
roles, recall pipeline, data model, environment variables.
- **[ENGINEERING_STANDARDS.md](ENGINEERING_STANDARDS.md)** โ code,
test, security, and release standards. The four gates every PR
must pass.
- **[AI_DEVELOPER_WORKFLOW.md](AI_DEVELOPER_WORKFLOW.md)** โ the
eight-phase workflow AI agents must follow (recall โ plan โ
branch โ implement โ gates โ self-review โ PR โ handoff).
- **[AI_DEVELOPER_GOVERNANCE.md](AI_DEVELOPER_GOVERNANCE.md)** โ
authority classes, attribution rules, memory governance, hard
prohibitions.
- **[CONTRIBUTING.md](../CONTRIBUTING.md)** (repo root) โ
contributor procedures, CLA.
## Design decisions
- **[ADR-0001-quorum-replication.md](ADR-0001-quorum-replication.md)** โ
W-of-N quorum write model + chaos-testing methodology.
- **[ADR-0002-kg-schema-v15-backward-incompat.md](ADR-0002-kg-schema-v15-backward-incompat.md)** โ
KG schema v15 wire-level backward incompatibility.
- **[ADR-0003-kg-invalidation-eventual-consistency.md](ADR-0003-kg-invalidation-eventual-consistency.md)** โ
why KG link invalidation replicates eventually (not quorum-broadcast).
## SDKs
- **[sdk/typescript/README.md](../sdk/typescript/README.md)** โ
`@alphaone/ai-memory` sync client, all 25 methods + webhook verifier.
- **[sdk/python/README.md](../sdk/python/README.md)** โ `ai-memory`
package, sync + async clients, Pydantic v2 models.
## Release notes
- **[CHANGELOG.md](../CHANGELOG.md)** โ Keep-a-Changelog formatted
release history with mandatory disclosures for every GA.
## Getting help
1. Check the [Troubleshooting guide](TROUBLESHOOTING.md) first.
2. Search existing issues on GitHub.
3. Open a new issue at
<https://github.com/alphaonedev/ai-memory-mcp/issues> with:
- `ai-memory --version`
- Your tier (`ai-memory stats --json`)
- The last 50 lines of the daemon log (`journalctl -u ai-memory`)
4. For security vulnerabilities: **security@alphaone.dev**. Do not
open public issues for those.
