      "Title": "[Feature request] A flag to return complete memories contents on proactive_context and recall tools calls",
      "Excerpt": "This is a feature request that came from my daily shodh usage over a long period.\n\nI was sometimes looking at tool call returns and assumed that the truncated/summary-like text I saw was just a display thing - that agents were actually receiving the full memory content. This turned out not to be true. `recall` and `proactive_context` tools return only a short fragment per memory - with no indication (or mention in the sparse docs) that the content IS actually incomplete. However, this is fully o",

      "Excerpt": "## Description\n\nWhen calling `recall` with `mode: \"semantic\"`, callers expect fast vector-only retrieval (Layer 1 + BM25) without graph I/O. In practice, Layer 2 graph traversal executes unconditionally for all modes, making semantic recall significantly slower than it should be and vulnerable to write lock contention from concurrent `remember` operations.\n\nThis matters for MCP integrations (e.g., Claude Code) where `recall` is called frequently and latency directly impacts responsiveness.
