Surface the notes you forgot you wrote — DMN replay for markdown vaults.

Install

Add this to your client's MCP configuration (Claude Desktop: claude_desktop_config.json; Cursor: .cursor/mcp.json; VS Code and others use the same "mcpServers" shape).

PYPI package mcp-curiosity-engine
Claude Code
claude mcp add mcp-curiosity-engine -e 'CURIOSITY_ENGINE_LICENSE=<your curiosity_engine_license>' -- uvx mcp-curiosity-engine==0.1.0
JSON configuration (Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code)
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "mcp-curiosity-engine": {
            "command": "uvx",
            "args": [
                "mcp-curiosity-engine==0.1.0"
            ],
            "env": {
                "CURIOSITY_ENGINE_LICENSE": "<your curiosity_engine_license>"
            }
        }
    }
}

mcp-curiosity-engine

Surface the notes you forgot you wrote — DMN replay for markdown vaults.

Surface the notes you've forgotten you wrote. Uses wikilink graph structure + file mtime to identify dormant notes (low link-in count, old, isolated) and the DMN-inspired replay cycle pattern from cognitive neuroscience: sample dormant notes with bias (40% random / 30% least-linked / 30% orphaned), generate cross-domain bridge queries between them, and surface the unexpected connections. Breaks the confirmation-bias loop where you only revisit the notes you already remember.

Install

pip install mcp-curiosity-engine
# or
uvx mcp-curiosity-engine

Usage

Claude Code
claude mcp add mcp-curiosity-engine -- mcp-curiosity-engine
Claude Desktop

Add to claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "curiosity_engine": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["mcp-curiosity-engine"]
    }
  }
}

MCP Tools

ToolTierDescription
find_dormant_notesFreeList notes that are structurally dormant — low incoming wikilink count AND old mtime. These are the notes most at risk of being forgotten.
find_orphan_notesFreeList notes with zero incoming wikilinks — structurally isolated, the extreme case of dormancy.
suggest_replay_cycleProRun the full DMN-inspired replay cycle: sample dormant notes with bias (40% random / 30% least-linked / 30% orphans), extract their concepts, generate cross-domain bridge queries between them, return notes to revisit. The core moat.
find_cross_domain_bridgesProSurface pairs of notes from DIFFERENT top-level directories that share concepts. These are the surprise connections — ideas that span your vault's silos.
random_deep_cutProPull a single random dormant note for serendipitous rediscovery. Think of it as your vault's shuffle-play button.

Pro tier

Unlocks the full DMN replay cycle, cross-domain bridge discovery, and random deep-cut sampling.
