Tools

This server runs locally, so its tools are listed by your MCP client once it starts.

Environment variables

Name	Description
`ENGRAM_MCP_STARTUP_SYNC` Optional	Kept for compatibility; has no effect. The server never imports other AI tools' memories at start (the user runs engram import-memories for that).
`ENGRAM_TOOLS` Optional	Expose the context-budget friendly default surface; set to all for the full advanced surface.
`PYTHONIOENCODING` Optional	Force UTF-8 stdio frames on Windows-style consoles.
