Minns Memory Layer provides five distinct ways to find data. Choosing the right one is critical for your agent’s performance.

​
Quick reference

If you want to find…Use this searchAccuracy
Member number, email, or IDDirect node searchExact
”Does the user like popcorn?”Semantic searchFuzzy
”Where did we leave off?”Context searchHigh
”What’s the booking history?”Graph traversalExact
”How do I solve this error?”Embedding searchFuzzy

​
1. Direct node search (hard facts)

Endpoint: GET /api/graph or GET /api/graph/context A deterministic lookup for specific nodes and properties via graph traversal. Use this for exact values like member numbers, email addresses, and IDs. 
GET /api/graph?session_id=5001&limit=10
Use graph queries for hard facts — data with an exact, verifiable value.

​
2. Semantic search (soft facts)

Endpoint: POST /api/claims/search A vector-based search over claims (facts extracted from text). Use this for fuzzy concepts like preferences, mood, complaints, or intent. 
{
  "query_text": "What kind of seating does the user prefer?",
  "top_k": 3,
  "min_similarity": 0.7
}
Keep the query_text natural. Don’t include IDs — filter results in your application code instead.

​
3. Context search (task history)

Endpoint: POST /api/memories/context Finds previous episodes that match a specific environmental state. Use this to answer “What did we do last time we were in this exact situation?” 
{
  "context": {
    "active_goals": [{ "id": 101, "description": "book_movie" }],
    "environment": { "variables": { "user_id": "user_99" } }
  }
}
The system uses a context fingerprint (hash) for instant matching. Always query by context and goal to avoid mixing history from different tasks.

​
4. Graph traversal (relationships)

Endpoint: GET /api/graph with filters Retrieves the graph structure showing nodes and their connections. Use this to explore event causality, episode formation, and entity relationships. 
GET /api/graph?session_id=5001&limit=100
The response includes both nodes and edges, showing how events are connected through typed relationships like CausedBy, PartOf, and LeadsTo.

​
5. Embedding search (strategy similarity)

Endpoint: POST /api/strategies/similar Finds learned strategies that “look like” the current goal. Use this when the agent is stuck and needs a successful recipe from a similar task. 
{
  "goal_ids": [202],
  "tool_names": ["payment_gateway"],
  "min_score": 0.8
}
This is how you share wisdom between agents. If one agent learned how to handle a payment error, another can find that strategy here.

Best practices

  1. Use graph queries for hard facts — member numbers, IDs, exact values
  2. Use semantic search for soft facts — preferences, mood, intent
  3. Always query by context and goal — prevents mixing history from different tasks
  4. Store filterable fields in metadata — user_id, session_type, etc.
  5. Use strategy similarity to share knowledge — across agents and tasks
