## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "roam_remember",
    "arguments": {}

## Why roam_remember is rated Medium

The tool creates and stores new data (memories) in the Roam Research graph, which is a reversible write operation. It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data irreversibly, or move financial resources. While it modifies the user's personal knowledge base, the scope is limited to adding information to a designated memory store.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Add a memory or piece of information to remember, stored on the daily page' - the verb 'Add' indicates creation/modification of data. This creates new entries in the user's knowledge graph."

## Use case

AI agents use roam_remember to create or update resources in Roam Research, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Roam Research environment.
