vault_graph_search

Cross-domain / multi-hop semantic search with wikilink graph expansion (GraphRAG). Seeds by vector similarity, expands through the links_to graph (vault_edges), and fuses by RRF. Run index_vault first so the edge graph is populated. Returns chunks tagged seed|expansion with hop + via_edge. Optional vaults[] federates the same query across additional vaults (max 8), fusing per-vault ranked lists by RRF; each result is tagged with its source vault. response_format=concise returns {chunk_id, path, content, rerank_score} per result (plus vault and changed_since_d when set) without source, hop, via_edge and root_seed, and drops route, query, hyde, variants_used, coverage, vaults_used and per_vault; mode_used, failed_variants and failed_vaults are kept.

Accepts an idempotency key no

Idempotent is the advisory MCP idempotentHint. Destructive is also yes for a tool that asks for confirmation only on some calls.

No human confirmation is required to call this tool.

Parameter Type Required Default Description
vault string — Vault id. May be omitted when only one vault is available. length 1–64; pattern ^[a-z0-9_-]+$
