NexusDock Recall

NexusDock Recall is an optional long-term knowledge service for AgentDock. It stores stable project documentation, experience, decisions, and question records so future tasks can recover reliable context.

Without NexusDock, files, commands, Git, Skills, dynamic MCP, and local tasks continue to work normally. Recall, workflow templates, and private-note tools are unavailable.

When to use it​

Good candidates include:

  • Long-lived project structure and operating instructions.
  • Verified deployment or troubleshooting experience.
  • Decisions and preferences that should carry across conversations.
  • Open questions and learning records that still need resolution.

Do not store:

  • Tokens, passwords, cookies, private keys, or browser login state.
  • One-off logs or temporary execution state.
  • Unverified speculation.
  • Live progress for the current task.

Connect NexusDock​

You need a reachable NexusDock URL and, optionally, a token. Ask the agent to configure it:

Connect AgentDock to NexusDock Recall at https://nexus.example.com, and store the token in a secure environment variable.

See Configuration for the exact environment variables.

How to use it​

You can say:

Before starting, look for existing deployment records for this project.
Update the long-term project documentation with the conclusions verified in this task, but do not store temporary logs.
Search for previous OAuth troubleshooting experience.

The agent searches existing content before deciding whether to read, update, or create an entry, which helps avoid duplicates and conflicts.

Content types​

  • Markdown: stable project documentation, runbooks, and structured long-term facts.
  • Card: one atomic, reusable experience, preference, or decision.
  • Note: question discussions, learning records, and conclusions that have not yet stabilized.

Private Notes and Recall​

Private Notes use a separate NexusDock Private Notes store and are not part of Recall search:

  • Recall stores reusable project knowledge and must not contain tokens, passwords, cookies, or private keys.
  • Private Notes store sensitive information only when the user explicitly asks, with age-encrypted backups.
  • Private-note search returns safe metadata only; reading the body requires an explicit action.
  • recall_* cannot read, modify, or list private notes. Use private_note_manage instead.

Task progress and Recall​

NexusDock Recall stores long-term knowledge. The task system stores current execution progress. Connecting NexusDock does not automatically make a task resumable on another device.
