**Content Management:**
- `write_note(title, content, folder, tags)` - Create/update markdown notes with semantic observations and relations
- `read_note(identifier, page, page_size)` - Read notes by title, permalink, or memory:// URL with knowledge graph
awareness
- `read_file(path)` - Read raw file content (text, images, binaries) without knowledge graph processing
- `read_note(identifier, page, page_size)` - Read notes by title, permalink, or memory:// URL with knowledge graph awareness
- `edit_note(identifier, operation, content)` - Edit notes incrementally (append, prepend, find/replace, section replace)
- `move_note(identifier, destination_path)` - Move notes with database consistency and search reindexing
- `view_note(identifier)` - Display notes as formatted artifacts for better readability in Claude Desktop
- `read_content(path)` - Read raw file content (text, images, binaries) without knowledge graph processing
- `delete_note(identifier)` - Delete notes from knowledge base
**Project Management:**
- `list_memory_projects()` - List all available projects with status indicators
- `switch_project(project_name)` - Switch to different project context during conversations
- `get_current_project()` - Show currently active project with statistics
- `create_memory_project(name, path, set_default)` - Create new Basic Memory projects
- `delete_project(name)` - Delete projects from configuration and database
- `set_default_project(name)` - Set default project in config
- `sync_status()` - Check file synchronization status and background operations
**Knowledge Graph Navigation:**
- `build_context(url, depth, timeframe)` - Navigate the knowledge graph via memory:// URLs for conversation
continuity
- `recent_activity(type, depth, timeframe)` - Get recently updated information with specified timeframe (e.g., "
1d", "1 week")

- Users install with: `pip install basic-memory --pre`
- Use for milestone testing before stable release
#### Stable Releases (Manual)
- Create version tag: `git tag v0.13.0 && git push origin v0.13.0`
- Automatically builds, creates GitHub release, and publishes to PyPI
#### Stable Releases (Automated)
- Use the automated release system: `just release v0.13.0`
- Includes comprehensive quality checks (lint, format, type-check, tests)
- Automatically updates version in `__init__.py`
- Creates git tag and pushes to GitHub
- Triggers GitHub Actions workflow for PyPI publication
- Users install with: `pip install basic-memory`
**Manual method (legacy):**
- Create version tag: `git tag v0.13.0 && git push origin v0.13.0`
### For Development
- No manual version bumping required
- Versions automatically derived from git tags
- `pyproject.toml` uses `dynamic = ["version"]`
- `__init__.py` dynamically reads version from package metadata
- **Automated releases**: Use `just release v0.13.x` for stable releases and `just beta v0.13.0b1` for beta releases
- **Quality gates**: All releases require passing lint, format, type-check, and test suites
- **Version management**: Versions automatically derived from git tags via `uv-dynamic-versioning`
- **Configuration**: `pyproject.toml` uses `dynamic = ["version"]`
- **Release automation**: `__init__.py` updated automatically during release process
- **CI/CD**: GitHub Actions handles building and PyPI publication
