# Dobby Recall

Search Dobby's persistent memory system.

## Prerequisites

Verify the Dobby MCP server is connected by checking that `mcp__dobby__dobby_recall` is available. If not, tell the user:

> The Dobby MCP server is not connected. Make sure the Dobby daemon is running and the MCP server is configured in your Claude Code settings.

## Steps

1. **Parse arguments**: Extract the search query from the user's input after `/dobby-recall`. For example: `/dobby-recall auth middleware` means query="auth middleware".

2. **Search**: Call `mcp__dobby__dobby_recall` with the query parameter. If no query was provided, call with no arguments to list all memories.

3. **Format results**: Display matching memories with their keys, types, and values.

## Output Format

```
## Dobby Memories matching "query"

### key-name (type: project)
The stored value content here...

### another-key (type: feedback)
Another stored value...

Found X memories.
```

If no results: "No memories found matching 'query'. Store one with `/dobby-remember`."
