REST API Reference
The REST API is the primary interface for scripts, web clients, and any language without a native SDK. All endpoints accept and return JSON.
Authentication
Authenticated endpoints require a Bearer token in the Authorization header. Tokens are created via muninn init or the admin API.
Authorization: Bearer mk_xK9m...
Public endpoints (/health, /ready, /workers, /hello) require no auth. All vault operations require a Bearer token.
Engrams
/engrams Store a new engram in a vault.
{
"vault": "default",
"concept": "user prefers dark mode",
"content": "Always render UI in dark theme",
"tags": ["preference", "ui"],
"confidence": 0.9
} Returns: { "id": "01JN..." }
/engrams/{id} Fetch a single engram by ULID. Pass vault as a query param: ?vault=default
Returns full Engram object including temporal priority data (access count, last access), confidence, and associations.
/engrams/{id} Soft-delete an engram. It is archived, not permanently removed (restorable for 7 days via MCP).
/engrams List engrams in a vault (paginated). Query params: vault, limit, offset, tags.
/engrams/{id}/links Get all associations for a specific engram.
Activation
/activate Primary retrieval endpoint. Runs the full 6-phase cognitive pipeline — BM25 scoring, temporal priority scoring, Hebbian boosting, and graph traversal.
{
"vault": "default",
"context": ["what does the user prefer?"],
"max_results": 10,
"threshold": 0.5,
"max_hops": 2
} Returns array of engrams with score, concept, content, why (score breakdown), and hop_path.
Links
/link Create an explicit weighted association between two engrams. Links are traversed during Activate to surface related memories.
{
"vault": "default",
"source_id": "01JN...",
"target_id": "01JN...",
"rel_type": 5,
"weight": 0.8
} rel_type values:
1 supports · 2 contradicts · 3 depends_on · 4 supersedes · 5 relates_to · 6 is_part_of · 7 causes · 8 preceded_by · 9 followed_by · 10 created_by_person · 11 belongs_to_project · 12 references · 13 implements · 14 blocks · 15 resolves
User-defined types start at 0x8000.
Vaults
/vaults List all vaults with their engram counts and storage sizes.
/stats Vault statistics: engram count, confidence distribution, storage bytes, coherence scores. Pass ?vault=default.
Streaming (SSE)
/subscribe text/event-stream Server-Sent Events stream. Receive push notifications whenever new engrams are stored or existing ones are activated above a threshold. Pass vault as query param.
/session text/event-stream Long-lived SSE stream of session activity — a running log of activations, writes, and link events for the current session.
Health & Stats
/health Liveness probe. Returns 200 when the server is up. No auth required.
/ready Readiness probe. Returns 200 when all workers are initialized. No auth required.
/workers Worker statistics — Hebbian worker, confidence worker, contradiction worker status. No auth required.
