## MCP tools (12)

### `search_memories` (~274 tokens)

Hybrid keyword + semantic search across the knowledge graph. "Ben Weeks" can also find "Benjamin Weeks" and each result includes _score and _match.

Input parameters:

- `depth` (integer): Relationship depth to include, 0 to 5, defaults to 1
- `include_archived` (boolean): Include memories with status "archived" (excluded by default).
- `label` (string): Filter by memory label
- `limit` (integer): Maximum results to return, 1 to 200, defaults to 10
- `order_by` (string): Sort order such as created_at DESC, name ASC
- `query` (string): Search text to find in any property. Keyword mode matches any word, while semantic mode can surface close meanings and name variants.
- `search_mode` (string): Search mode: hybrid (default), keyword-only, semantic-only, or exact (case-insensitive equality on name/aliases/email: use before creating a memory).
- `similarity_threshold` (number): Semantic similarity threshold, 0 to 1 inclusive, defaults to 0.4.
- `since_date` (string): ISO date string to filter memories created after this date (e.g., "2024-01-01" or "2024-01-01T00:00:00Z")

### `create_memory` (~136 tokens)

Create a new memory in the knowledge graph. Consider that the memory might already exist, so Search → Create → Connect (its important to try and connect memories)

Input parameters:

- `label` (string, required): Memory label: a plain identifier, Capitalised singular by convention (Person, Place, Organization, Project, Event, Topic, Object, Animal, Concept, Meeting, Decision…). Use list_memory_labels first fo…
- `properties` (object, required): Information to store about this memory (use "name" as primary identifier, e.g. {name: "John Smith", age: 30, occupation: "Engineer"})

### `create_connection` (~112 tokens)

Create a connection between two memories (its good to have connected memories)

Input parameters:

- `fromMemoryId` (number, required): ID of the source memory
- `properties` (object): Optional relationship metadata (e.g. {since: "2023-01", role: "Manager", status: "active"})
- `toMemoryId` (number, required): ID of the target memory
- `type` (string, required): Relationship type such as KNOWS, WORKS_ON, LIVES_IN, HAS_SKILL, PARTICIPATES_IN

### `update_memory` (~55 tokens)

Update properties of an existing memory such as adding more detail or make a change when you find out something new

Input parameters:

- `nodeId` (number, required): ID of the memory to update
- `properties` (object, required): Properties to update/add

### `update_connection` (~102 tokens)

Update properties of an existing connection between memories

Input parameters:

- `fromMemoryId` (number, required): ID of the source memory
- `properties` (object, required): Properties to update/add (e.g. {status: "completed", end_date: "2024-01"})
- `toMemoryId` (number, required): ID of the target memory
- `type` (string, required): Relationship type to identify which connection to update (e.g. WORKS_AT, KNOWS, MANAGES)

### `delete_memory` (~44 tokens)

Delete a memory and all its connections (use with caution - this permanently removes the memory and all its connections)

Input parameters:

- `nodeId` (number, required): ID of the memory to delete

### `delete_connection` (~79 tokens)

Delete a specific connection between two memories (use with caution - this permanently removes the relationship)

Input parameters:

- `fromMemoryId` (number, required): ID of the source memory
- `toMemoryId` (number, required): ID of the target memory
- `type` (string, required): Exact relationship type to delete (e.g. WORKS_AT, KNOWS, MANAGES)

### `list_memory_labels` (~50 tokens)

List all unique memory labels currently in use with their counts (useful for getting an overview of the knowledge graph)

Input parameters:

- `include_archived` (boolean): Include labels of archived memories (excluded by default).

### `query_memories` (~55 tokens)

Run a read-only Cypher query and return up to 200 scrubbed rows.

Input parameters:

- `cypher` (string, required): Read-only Cypher to execute.
- `params` (object): Optional parameter map for the Cypher query.

### `memory_stats` (~26 tokens)

Summarize node, relationship, label, embedding, and orphan counts for the graph.

### `dream` (~44 tokens)

Deterministically relabel, merge duplicates, and refresh embeddings, with an optional dry run report.

Input parameters:

- `dry_run` (boolean): If true, report planned changes without writing them.

### `get_guidance` (~45 tokens)

Get help on using the memory tools effectively

Input parameters:

- `topic` (string): Topic: connections, labels, relationships, best-practices, examples, or leave empty for all

## Common questions

### What is the Reverie MCP server?

Reverie is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as ai.knowall/reverie. Graph memory that dreams: Neo4j knowledge-graph memory for AI agents with hybrid search. This page covers its npm package (@knowall-ai/reverie).

### Is the Reverie MCP server safe to use?

Reverie scores 84 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We recorded 2 known advisories against it as of 20 September 2026. It declares no install or post-install scripts. Its build provenance is signed and verified. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

### What tools does the Reverie MCP server expose?

Reverie exposes 12 tools: search_memories, create_memory, create_connection, update_memory, update_connection, and 7 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 1,022 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Is the Reverie MCP server still maintained?

Reverie is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 20 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.

### What licence is the Reverie MCP server under?

Reverie declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.
